Kithara is a fully reversible shawlette featuring alternating bands of garter and wedges of mesh. The curving outer edge and straight lines created by the garter are reminiscent of the ancient Greek lyre-like musical instrument it is named after. Listen to your favorite bit of music while working on this tip-to-tip design, and it will be ready to wear to the concert in no time.
