About this Tunisian crochet shawl pattern

Wrap yourself in a big, cozy shawl with beautiful texture and bands of eyelets. Use a mohair companion with a gradient yarn cake to get the dreamiest triangle shawl in your favorite colors.

The shawl is built from the top middle point and grows along the edges and the spine, with a geometric increase in an easy to remember stitch pattern.

The optional regular crochet edge adds some playfulness and helps straighten out the Tunisian crochet fabric in the rest of the shawl.

The shape and size of this shawl make it perfect for tying around your waist, to keep your hands free for any activities.

This pattern is part of a set of gemstone-themed shawl patterns.
