Tycho is an unfussy, modern, crescent shaped wrap with a lot of textural interest. The wrap is relatively wide with a depth on the shallower side. This easy shape allows you to wear it multiple ways; you can wrap your Tycho about your neck and shoulders, knot it, loop it, or leave the ends loose for an elegant drape.

Tycho is designed to look equally good in a rustic, woolen spun yarn with some halo, as it would in something more slinky and drapey. Choose the yarn that reflects your personal style and esthetics and wear your Tycho with a chic woolen coat, your well-worn leather jacket or that old, cozy sweatshirt.

CONSTRUCTION
Tycho is a crescent shaped shawl that starts with a classic garter tab and is worked from the top down. To achieve a fluid drape and the measurements given in schematic, I recommend wet blocking using blocking wires.
