La Tendresse is a symmetric shawl worked from bottom up with only one skein of Halo, my Superkid Mohair and silk yarn base.
It is divided in different sections of a romantic lace alternated with moss stitch stripes. La Tendresse is worked in a super large gauge for a maximum of airy and lightness effect.
The pattern is accessible to curious beginners. Instructions are both on charts and written row by row.
