Notes:
--This pattern may also be made into a larger full-size Shawl by using larger needles and yarns. --We are increasing 2 sts every row at the beg and end, increasing at the center only on RS rows. --Always knit the center stitch (every row). --Suggest making a small sample (test yarn and practice bind off) - can be an American Girl doll shawl or a scarf. Work only 1 full sequence and you have a Barbie shawl!
