Sewing

Fold the piece in half so that the length is folded and sew the sides as in my sketch.

Shrug after folding is 15,75 inches( 40 cm) wide.

 Sew half of this height 7,87 inches ( 20cm) from bottom up so that you leave unsewn an opening of 7,87 inches ( 20 cm) for armhole opening in each side.

EDGING

We work the edging (after sides are sewn) across the 2 edges of  shrug.

Special st, cluster=in indicated st, 2dc , ch2, 2dc

Attach yarn at one of the side seams , right side of shrug facing you.

We work first a dc row

Row 1: ch 3, dc in each st to the end, join with a sl st in top of ch3, turn

Row 2: ch 5,*skip 2 sts, cluster in next st, ch2, skip 2 sts, sc in next st * rep from * to * to the end of row, ch2 , join with a sl st in 3^rd ch of initial ch5
