This is not an error, I just made the sizes a little larger so the shrug would fit better. These revisions will not affect the size xsm-sm. All revisions are in red
Fits sizes xs-sm (med-lg,xlg-1x,2x-3x) I changed the sizes to be a little larger!
Note: Garment will stretch to fit above sizes.

NEW NUMBERS/INSTRUCTIONS ARE IN RED – I am making each larger size 2” bigger on each square. In other words the size xsml-sm has 12” sections, med-lg- has 14” sections, xlg-1x has 16” sections and 2x-3x has 18 “ sections for each square. The top of the “T” has 3 squares. See my new diagram.
Pattern note: entire shrug is worked in back loop only (blo)

Following diagram, sew A to B, leaving an armhole opening at C. Try shrug on for fit, having seams in back, below armhole opening, and turning over long edge, D, for shawl collar. If armhole is too big, you may sew tog several ridges at armhhole to fit,starting at side seam. Weave in ends.
