Thalia

The second shawl/scarf for a wonderful teacher is based on Kirsten Kapur's Thalia.
 


 I very much enjoy Kirsten's patterns and this one was no exception. The shawl begins from the top center with a double-yarn-over center section. I don't like to keep referring to the pattern the whole time, so I used stitch markers to mark the increase points (there are three plus the edges).


I held the yarn double, but even so the shawl turned out rather small. That's ok though, it'll work well as something to drape on the shoulders or wrap around the neck once.


 
Pattern: Thalia
Yarn: Isager Strik Alpaca 1, held double
Needle: 4 mm
