I am excited to bring you another free pattern using our spectacular Spud & Chloë Sweater. Today I have a shrug pattern for you. In the pattern I included the written instructions for making a women’s size medium. At the end of the pattern I included a “How to make your own custom fit shrug” section. This how-to section has some simple steps you can use to make your own shrug in a different size for yourself or a child size shrug! With a few quick measurements you will be on your way.
This simple pattern is an easy one to customize, make the sleeves longer or shorter, leave out the ruching and work in straight stockinette, use a different border, change the color, change the size, make one for a little one in your life, maybe stripes or color blocks…. the sky is the limit.
Here is some information you might like to know:

I love this quick project. It can be dressed up or down.
It is a really just a long tube with an opening in the middle.
I have included my design sketch schematic here so you can see how the measurements are broken down for the size medium.
Have fun with your shrugs! I can’t wait to see them and to see which colors in Sweater you choose.
