Kafa (means coffee in Montenegrin) is a little crocheted shawlette worked from the corner to the side.

It grows into an asymmetrical richly-textured accent piece which is easy to make as small or large as you wish. Its size can be customized by working more or fewer rows within each or any of the three sections as desired.

The pattern has multiple textured stitch patterns, which are fun to make, and two colors blended in the middle of the shawl.

You can make your kerchief larger by working more rows within each of the three sections and customize the size of each section as desired (helpful notes are included in the written instructions). Bear in mind that in this case your yardage requirements and finished dimensions will change.
