Getting Started
To make this shrug, all you do is knit a rectangle. The secret is in the construction: you simply join the long and short edges in a way that fashions the front, back, and armholes.
The stitch used for this shrug is a combination of basic stitches that creates a ribbed effect across the finished piece.
