Threads Magazine shrug

[haykyn]

I finally remembered to get the Threads magazine from the library so I could remember the measurements of the shrug.  I did the ballet shrug, not the kimono or bat wing.  I like it.  It was worth 20 cents of photo copies.  This was just some fabric I had laying around.  It doesn't take much.  And it only took about a half hour, from cutting to the final seam.

OMG!!!!

You MUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! share this pattern with all of us!!!  Anyone have any idea where one might find this online?  Or could you make a quick tutorial?

Please Please!!!

Lovely!

Thanks! 

I'm not sure I can explain it better than in the magazine.  Its the August/september 2005 issue of Threads Magazine.  I copied the two pages at the library so I could keep the lay out and measurements at home.  If I can figure out how to get a decent drawing together to post online, I will.

I am SO going to the library wednesday!!!  I can't wait to make this.  How much fabric does it take?  I would still love a tutorial just in case. So nice!

I found it!!!  My local library had the mag, so I photocopied it. 

I will post a tutorial soon for all three styles.  This pattern makes a batwing style, kimono style or a dancers shrug. 

You only need a 1.5 yard/meter x 1 yard/meter piece of fabric with 25% stretch (the pattern says this means a 4" piece of fabric will strech to 5").

I will post the complete tutorial soon!

Great job!  I have that magazine too and one of these days I'm going to make one. I prefer the ballet shrug too.
