Linstead Shawl is a crescent shawl worked in fingering gradient yarn. The shawl has a simple stitch pattern with a mesh detail at the edge. It is a stylish piece to transition from winter to spring and back again!

Linstead is inspired by knit shawls. I was inspired to make this shawl because I don’t see a lot of crescent crochet shawls and crochet patterns using gradient yarns and wanted to show how beautiful popular gradient yarns work up in crochet.
