ZIA...uncover your gypsy girl soul with this shawl whose accomodating length allows the wearer to wrap and drape it in a multitude of ways...fabricated in a rustic silk blend yarn and finished off with oversized tassels in the spicy, earthy colors of the Latin "tierra". Zia's stitch pattern mimics textural garments found throughout many world cultures, especially the rebozo of Mexico. Created with variations of predominately knit stitch, Zia proves that even the simplest of stitches, when used in intriguing color combinations and with a sensual yarn, can create something lovely and complex.
