Vanna's Glamour Yarn: Moonstone - 1 ball
Lion Brand Crochet Hook - Size G-6 (4 mm)

Finished Width From Cuff to Cuff 56 in. (142 cm)
Finished Length at Center Back 15 (18, 22) in. (38 (45.5, 56) cm)

GAUGE:
16 sts + Rows 1-9 = 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern st.

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. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is
based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes
you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches
and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

Picot Ch 3, sl st in top of last sc made.

NOTES:

1. Shrug is worked in 2 halves from center of back to lower edge of sleeve. Shrug halves are joined at
center back, then seamed to make sleeves.
2. When you see "– 12 sts." in the instructions, this lets you know how many sts you will have at the end of
that specific row.
3. To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through
all loops to complete st. Fasten off old color.
4. Shrug can be worked following the written instructions below, or by following the Chart. Read Chart
from right to left on RS rows and from left to right on WS rows.
