The size is a regular small. But easy to adjust! Simply run a tape measure from the front of your shoulder under your armpit across your back under your armpit and up to the top of the front of your other shoulder. The shrug is knit as a scarf (yep that easy) and then manipulated and stitched together to form the shrug.
