It is no secret that I love using Puff Stitches in my designs. This shawl has a row of puff stitches every 8 rows, and I used a ‘normal’ puff stitch with a slight modification. You make an extra yarn over to give a slight height increase, and it is explained in Special Stitches in the pattern. Practise it a few times and it will soon be very easy!

I purchased the beautiful yarn I used for this shawl from Stolen Stitches in Cork, Ireland. It is a sports weight yarn, a favourite of mine. Light enough to create a lovely drape, and sturdy enough to work up quickly! The yarn is Nua sport a luxury silky yarn which was a pleasure to use and the stitch definition is amazing!

The shawl used 800g of yarn – 700m of the main colour and 100m of a contrast colour.

This Asymmetrical Triangle Crochet Shawl pattern is adjustable. You can use any yarn weight and hook and adjust the pattern repeat to give the shawl size you wish.

Notes

  • In US crochet terms
  • Shawl starts at one end. Working in rows, increasing by 2 sts every second row, on one side only, until desired size is reached.
  • Pattern is an 8-row repeat
  • On straight side, ch2 does not count as a st
  • Gauge is not important. To achieve a light drape tension, I suggest you use a hook one size larger than recommended for the yarn you have chosen. Make a swatch of the first 8 rows to test your hook size.
  • A Crochet chart for the first 22 rows is included further down the page
