A lavish, sumptuous shawl, based on the character of the Marschallin in Richard Strauss’ opera Der Rosenkavalier. It can be worn as a neck wrap or a capelet.

It is worked from the long scalloped lower edge up to the picot edge at the neck. The upper border can be folded forward, forming a collar.

The pattern also includes an Alternate Version as a rectangular scarf, with a different configuration of the stitch pattern.
