Raspberry Croissant shawl crochet pattern

Description

Make a gorgeous crescent shawl pattern that shows off your craftsmanship and the beautiful color progression of long-gradient yarns.

It’s symmetrical, wide and relatively shallow (when compared to a simple triangle shawl), so you can wear it as a triangle scarf on colder days and as a wrap on summery evenings.

It’s the perfect project for social events (if you like to crochet in public) or for evenings spent watching your favorite show, as it requires only little concentration. Only one cake of yarn is necessary for this pattern, so your project is super portable and you can take it with you anywhere.

You work on your shawl until it’s large enough for your needs or you run out of yarn. So use a hook that helps you crochet easily with your chosen yarn and that makes uniform stitches.

The pattern comes with full instructions in US terms and UK terms, a chart and videos.

Materials

• Use any yarn you have in your stash that has a long gradient, such as one of the suggested yarns, which have 800-1000 meters per 200 grams, or pick some yarns from your stash that make up the same 800-1000 meters and use your color mixing skills to make your own color blocks or gradient.
• You can use a 3 mm hook, 4 mm or even 5 mm and you’ll still end up with a beautifully draping shawl. The secret for this is in the bias construction.
