GAUGE:

10 sts + 6 rows = about 4 in. (10 cm) over pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Shawlette begins at center back neck and is worked in rows down to lower edge.

Patterns like this are beautiful and I often end up using the pattern design on other items in the future. I started this shawl as soon as I saw it today as I already had the appropriate mohair yarn. My intention is to make it larger so that it is more of a shawl rather than a shawlette and with a 5,5mm hook it is working up quite quickly and already looks very pretty.
