I made this Easy Crochet Shawl Pattern because I wanted to make my sister something special. She doesn’t know it yet so… shhh! Keep it quiet until I give it to her.
I’ve only used two stitches which are the U.S. half double crochet and single crochet.
It is an open weave design and is great to throw around the shoulders when a bit chilly.
You can really use any yarn you like with this one. I used a medium worsted weight/soft DK/8 ply yarn.
