Issa is the sixth pattern in the Sweet Little Somethings pattern collection. The collection includes a total of 9 patterns (of which 2 are a matching set). The patterns comprise shawls, scarves, hats, mitts and a cowl.

Issa is a beautiful shawl that knits up quickly for a dramatic effect. Knit entirely in one piece, there are no short rows or picking up of stitches. The increases are carefully built into the lace pattern making this a very enjoyable knit. Written for two sizes, you can use any 4ply/fingering weight yarn.
