If you’re looking for an elegant and relaxing crochet project, this lightweight shawl is the perfect choice. Made with soft, sport-weight yarn, this beautiful wrap creates a vintage-inspired look that’s both delicate and cozy.
This rectangular crochet shawl features an easy 4-row repeat pineapple lace stitch. Once you establish the repeat, you can settle into a calming rhythm to create this stunning piece.
You can wear this gorgeous shawl as a wrap or style it as a cozy scarf! The pineapple stitch creates beautiful lacy details that open up beautifully when blocked.
Annam Wrap shawl pattern has been one of my most popular lightweight wrap designs over the years, though it was also one of my earliest patterns.
I’m excited to share this newly updated rectangular crochet shawl with clearer instructions and new images. For those who prefer visual guidance – a printable PDF that includes a detailed crochet chart.

Yarn Suggestions
To create this rectangular crochet shawl, you’ll need approximately 600m of sport-weight yarn in three colors. I used Manos del Uruguay Serena, which is a lovely sport weight blend of 60% Baby Alpaca and 40% Pima Cotton (155 meters/170 yards per 50g ball).
For the sample shown:
- Shade A (main color): S2302 English – 3 balls (434 meters/475 yards)
- Shade B: S2110 Zinnia – 1 ball (93 meters/102 yards)
- Shade C: S2133 Seashell – 1 ball (46 meters/50 yards)
You’ll also need a 4mm crochet hook (US G) and a tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
You can substitute any sport-weight yarn, or use fingering weight if you prefer an even lighter fabric (you’ll need approximately 700-800m). The important thing is to choose a yarn with a soft, delicate drape to showcase the beautiful pineapple stitch pattern.

Pattern notes
- The pattern is written in US crochet terms.
- The pattern is written for 3 colors. You can also make this shawl in a single color.
- This design has a long starting chain which can be a bit daunting! Placing stitch markers every 50 chains can be very helpful to keep stitch count on the foundation chain.
- Concentration is required for the first few rows, and once 4-row pattern repeat is established, relax and enjoy.
- The lace pattern is created by working into chain spaces (ch-sp). When working rows, you will skip any stitches or spaces not mentioned in the instructions.
- The pattern requires 12 sts for each repeat, plus 5 sts. You can make a scarf or a wrap in any size using this pattern. Keep in mind that the piece will grow after blocking.
- Be sure to select a lovely light yarn for making your Annam Wrap. The Serena from Manos del Uruguay is soft and light with a very delicate handle. Fingering Weight yarn would work well.

Hello,
I hope you can help me. In the written pattern the double crochet cluster reads: Double crochet together, chain 2, then dc together. When I looked over the chart, there are three chains in the dc cluster stitch. Is it two chains or three chains? I was hoping to make this wrap for our daughter for her wedding day. Is there a video that is available?
Thank you for your prompt reply.
Sandra
Hi Sandra! You are correct, the hand drawn chart has 3 chains and the written pattern has 2 chains. I appreciate you pointing this out to me. It was so long ago I wrote that pattern and I must update it straightaway! I used 3 chains (as in the chart) for the original shawl I made but I have also made a version using 2 chains which was lovely too. Cluster Shell – (dc2tog, ch3, dc2tog). I hope that helps and feel free to email me if I can help in any other way. It will be a beautiful shawl!
Hello Carmen! Thank you so very much for your reply. Very kind of you to be so responsive. I think I will crochet from the chart as I am a much better visual crocheter as I learned to crochet st age 7. I am sure my daughter will love the shawl. Blessings to you. Sandra
Thats great Sandra! It will be a wonderful gift for your daughter:)
Hello Carmen –
I just need to double check that the stitch repeat of 12 plus 5 is the same for both the written pattern and the chart.
With many thanks,
Sandra
Hi Sandra, I haven’t access to the pattern notes at the moment but that sounds correct!
Hello Carmen,
I have been meaning to contact you and let you know my daughter was speechless when she opened the box and saw the shawl. It came out beautifully. Thank you for your support. I told all my family and friends about the design and designer. I did make a bit of a modification and added lace edging to both ends to add some length. I used Cloudborn washable merino and it was a dream to work with and not one knot in the four skeins I used. I posted pictures on Ravelry. In all the hustle and bustle of the wedding I didn’t get a picture of my daughter wearing the shawl. There was a bit of drama when the shawl (in a beautiful gift box with a card addressed to my daughter from me, was “mistakenly” taken by the bride from the next wedding at the same venue. The other couple went on their honeymoon and didn’t let anyone or the venue know they had the shawl. To make a long story short, the venue to their credit and persevere, retrieved the shawl, box and my note. All is well that ends well – as the saying goes.
Many thanks, Carmen. You patterns are perfection and are definitely my favorite!
Warmly,
Sandra
Hi Sandra! Oh my goodness, the shawl is beautiful! I went straight to Ravelry to see it. The yarn is perfect with lovely stitch definition, it really shows off the pattern. Thank you so much for your kind words….they mean the world to me. I was so happy that you were making it for your daughter’s wedding, that was very exciting for me! And I really enjoyed chatting to you by email:) I am so glad that you managed to retrieve the shawl…now that would have been a sorry tale! Thank you again, and it is lovely that I had a small part in your daughter’s special day xx
