KIKA 幾何 (jap.) - geometry

This triangular shawl is a transform garment and accessory. Worked with custom pattern that creates differently textured looks on each side - dimensional square basket weave on one and diamond eyelet on the other which renders this knit completely reversible.

Kika pattern is now available to public!

Note: Because this shawl uses every bit of the yarn, instead of working a separate swatch start working on the shawl and measure your gauge worked over the first 30 rows of Section A. It should measure 4ʺ tall and 9ʺ wide from the edge, washed and heavily blocked, measured over relaxed.
