Harvest Shrug
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE:
16 sts + 22 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS).
BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION:
PATTERN STITCH K1, p1 Rib (multiple of 2 sts) Row 1: *K1, p1; rep from * to across. Row 2: K the knit sts and p the purl sts. Rep Row 2 for K1, p1 Rib.
NOTES:
Circular needle is used to accommodate large number of sts. Work back and forth on circular needle as if working on straight needles.

Harvest Shrug Reviewed by Iruaku Mgbemena on 2013-02-14
I call it my Barley Shrug as I used Vanna's Barley color. I absolutely love this pattern. So easy. Im 5'9 and between a size 16-18 so I added about 20 extra stitches and maybe an extra 1-2" in length and fits perfectly. Got lots of compliments...and orders too! LOL
