Ladies, doesn't it seem like you always need a shrug?
I wanted to wear a black and white dress that I already had on Easter, but I needed to add some color to the outfit to make it pop! Would you believe they didn't have any bright yellow shrugs in my size ANYWHERE? As a matter of fact I didn't see any bright yellow shrugs in anyone's size.
I found this project here:

Step 2
Transfer (draw) the pattern on a large sheet of tracing paper. The pattern from the web page gives the measurements for sizes 10, 12, and 14. Since I am considerably more er. . .stout, and since I tend to suck at math, I simply took a folded t-shirt that fits me to size the pattern pieces.
The length of the jacket should be about 3 or 4 inches below your bust line. (at least it is for me)

Step 3
Notice the pattern pieces are curved. Also, the jacket flaps are part of the main piece's (the back of the jacket's) shape. I made it easier on myself by drawing the main piece first, then carefully sketching out the jacket flap shape on the main piece. That way, all I had to do was trace the jacket flap piece on another sheet of paper. It also ensures the pieces fit properly when sewing.
