Worked quickly from tip to tip, the Diagonally Shawl and Scarf are fun to crochet, featuring biased stripes and a decorative, scalloped bottom edge. Make Diagonally your own by choosing your own color mix. Use just a single skein of fingering weight yarn as the main color; work stripes with a second, coordinating skein or use up leftovers from other projects to make each stripe unique. This is an excellent pattern to showcase your favorite variegated yarns.

Pattern uses US crochet terminology.
