MODA DEA™ "Dream™": 3 (4, 5) Balls No. 3002 Black.

Knitting Needles: 6.5mm [US 10.5].
Split stitch markers; stitch holder; yarn needle.

GAUGE: 14 sts = 4"; 20 rows = 4" in St st. CHECK YOUR
GAUGE. Use any size needles to obtain the gauge.

To Fit Bust: 28-30 (32-34, 36-38)".

NOTE: Shrug is designed to fit snugly.

SLEEVE (Make 2): Cast on 23 (27, 29) sts. Knit 5 rows. Now work in St st, beg K row, shaping sides by inc 1 st each end of 7th row, then every 6th row until there are 45 (49, 51) sts. Work even until 161/2 (17, 171/2)" from beg, end K row. Place a marker at each end of last row.

Body-Row 1 (Wrong Side): K3, P to last 3 sts, K3.

Row 2: Knit all sts.
Rep Rows 1 and 2 until 8 (83/4, 91/4)" above markers. Leave sts on holder. Leave a long length of yarn attached to the second sleeve. TIP: The back seam of our shrug was grafted, but if you prefer to sew the back seam, bind off the stitches, then sew the back seam.

FINISHING: Graft back sts together: Place stitches of first sleeve on a needle. With wrong sides together and right side of second sleeve facing you on Needle 1 and first sleeve on Needle 2, thread the long length of yarn from the second sleeve into a yarn needle. Keeping the yarn needle and yarn under the points of the knitting needles, work as follows:
* Pass yarn needle through first st of Needle 1 as if to knit and slip the stitch off, pass through 2nd st of Needle 1 as if to purl, but leave the stitch on the Needle; pass yarn needle through first st on Needle 2 as if to purl and slip the stitch off, pass yarn needle through 2nd stitch on Needle 2 as if to knit, but leave stitch on Needle. Rep from * until all the sts are joined. Fasten off. Take care to draw yarn up so that gauge of grafting equals gauge of knitted sts.

Sew sleeve seam to markers.
