Lacy Crochet Shawl

Materials:

Sport weight cotton yarn (approximately 300 yards)
Crochet hook size D/3 (3.25 mm)
Tapestry needle for weaving ends

Gauge:

To ensure your shawl is the correct size, make a swatch: 20 stitches and 10 rows should measure 4 inches square in the pattern stitch. Adjust your hook size if necessary to achieve this gauge.

Abbreviations:

ch - chain
dc - double crochet
sl st - slip stitch
sp - space
sts - stitches
repeat - repeat the instructions given

Instructions:

1. Start with a foundation chain:
Chain 56 (or adjust to your preferred width). This will be the top edge of your shawl.

2. Row 1:
In the 4th ch from hook, make 1 dc.
*Skip 2 chs, (1 dc, ch 2, 1 dc) in next ch; repeat from * to last 2 chs, skip 1 ch, 1 dc in the last ch.
Turn your work.

3. Row 2:
Ch 3 (counts as 1st dc), make 1 dc in the ch-2 space of the next shell.
*Ch 2, (1 dc in the next ch-2 space) repeat from * across to the last dc.
1 dc in the last dc.
Turn your work.

4. Repeat Row 2:
Continue repeating Row 2 until the shawl measures approximately 60 inches long or to your desired length.

5. Finishing:
Fasten off the yarn and weave in any loose ends with a tapestry needle.

Blocking:

This step is key! Gently wet the shawl and lay it flat on a clean towel. Use pins to stretch it to the desired shape. Allow to dry completely before removing pins.

Optional Variations:

For a different look, you can change the yarn color or add a border of single crochet stitches around the edges.

This lovely lacy shawl not only demonstrates a beautiful crochet pattern but also helps you practice essential crochet skills. Enjoy wearing it or gifting it to someone special!
