[Nfb-krafters-korner] For Lisa Maria, the Lion Brand shrug pattern

[Candy Berg]

Hi Lisa Maria,

I made this shrug, and the pattern is correct. There is no hole for one's 
head. Once the armholes are stitched down, you put it on like a sweater. It 
ends up being half-sweater half-cape, with kind of a full collar in back. A 
very nice garment.
Here's something funny. When I made mine, I made it out of pure cotton, and 
so the thing stretched and is now way long in the back. I'd recommend some 
kind of blend yarn or acryllic yarn for this piece. I'm thinking I will 
donate my now-enormous shrug to my tiny dog as yet another dog bed.
Have fun with this!
