Hi there!

Finally, a rectangular shawl! Or wrap, or whatever you like to call it :)

Here’s a shawl that you can make as loooong as you want, combining some of the stitches that I like most from my past designs.

This is not a beginners’ pattern, but I’ve tried to add as much detail as possible and step-by-step pictures for every row.

Keeping the stitch count is really important with this kind of project, so I’ve added the stitch count to every row as well.

Yarn & Hook size: For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Rainbow 8/4 cotton with a 3mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and you are happy with the resulting tension
