Delicate Crochet Shawl

Materials:

Yarn: Worsted weight 100% cotton yarn, approximately 300 yards (275 meters) in pale pink.
Hook: Size H/8 (5 mm) crochet hook.
Tapestry needle for weaving ends.

Gauge:

18 double crochets and 10 rows = 4 inches (10 cm) in pattern. To check your gauge, work a 4x4 inch (10x10 cm) swatch in the stitch pattern. Adjust your hook size if necessary to match the gauge.

Abbreviations:

ch = chain
dc = double crochet
sp = space
sl st = slip stitch

Instructions:

Foundation Row: Start by making a slip knot and chaining 5. Join with a slip stitch to form a ring.
Row 1: Ch 3 (counts as first dc), make 2 dc in the ring, ch 3, and make 3 dc in the ring. This creates your first shell. Repeat this step twice more, then join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3. You should have 3 shells and 3 ch-3 spaces at the end of this row.
Row 2: Ch 3, turn. In the first ch-3 space, make 3 dc, ch 3, and 3 dc. In the next ch-3 space, repeat the same pattern across. Join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3. You'll have a total of 3 shells on this row as well.
Row 3: Ch 3, turn. In the first ch-3 space, make 3 dc, ch 3, and 3 dc. In the next ch-3 space, continue the same pattern across. Join with a sl st to the top of the ch 3 you started with.
Continue repeating Row 2 and Row 3 until the shawl reaches your desired length, approximately 45 inches (114 cm) in the longest direction. This should typically take around 12-15 rows, depending on your yarn tension.
Finishing: When you've reached your desired length, trim your yarn leaving a 6-inch tail. Weave in all loose ends using a tapestry needle. Optionally, you can lightly block the shawl by wetting it and laying it flat to dry in the desired shape, which will enhance the stitch definition.

Optional Variations:

Experiment with different colors or yarn weights! A variegated yarn can give this shawl a unique twist. You can also add a fringe to the ends for a playful look.
