This shawl is very easy to make, even for beginners.
It can be done with any thread or hook you want. I prefer a thinner thread, but the choice is yours.
Yarn I use is Alize cotton gold (55% cotton – 45% acrylic). Is a soft yarn. This yarn goes crochet with crochet 2-4 mm (european size). I work with crochet nr. 3 , but you can with D, or E (US size crochet). My advice is to choose a soft and thin wire. Even if it takes more time the result will be more beautiful;
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any problems.
