Love this pattern, love the book, love the yarn! This little shrug drapes beautifully and I love wearing it. Very practical and sooooo cute!
Made using size small instructions, but I didn’t do decreases under arms (converted dc stitches to be ripple pattern). Instead, below bust, worked in 2 pattern decreases in ripple pattern over a number of rows. Used 10 buttons spaced 2” apart. Did not do button hole chain spaces as my buttons are small enough to slip through the holes in the regular stitches in the button band. Had trouble with the bottom band and sleeve bands being wavy - seemed to be too many stitches. Went up a hook size and skipped every other sc to get the bands to look right.
