Mystery Shawl CAL - Shawl 6 - Marazion
So for the final shawl, I go back to the beginning and the person who inspired me to create unusual shawls - Stephen West. This is an homage to the doodler, taking inspiration from the shape, but of course different because it is crochet. This is the first shawl that I sketched out and has been the trickiest to create!
The base of this shawl is in tweed stitch, which is 1dc, 1ch, repeated, working dc’s into the chain spaces you make. You create each wedge and break them up with a border colour. There is a ripple style main border and & additional border along the straight edge. It’s shape is an asymmetric semi-circle. You start with a foundation chain (sorry!), and use two different size hooks. Other than the foundation chain, (and possibly the borders this shawl is quite easy, and great for stitch nights.
I have created 2 different shawls, in collaboration with two lovely indie dyers - Ange from Gamercrafting and Rosie from Rosies Moments.
From Gamercrafting there is the full on rainbow version, a custom dyed yarn it has 40g of 7 different colours plus 100g of a second colour which has all of the seven colours with Navy blue between.
Rosies is a 2 colour version in a sparkle yarn in a gorgeous green and plush purple!
The two colourways are both sock/fingering yarn, 80% Merino, 20% Nylon for Rainbow and 75% merino, 20% Nylon 5% Stellina for the 2 colour version. Each with approx 400m per 100g.
The different ways you could combine colours are numerous and exciting! Each section uses just under 30g, with any yarn over being incorporated into the borders.
You will need approx 150g of each of the colours for a two colour shawl - pictures will follow very soon!
Tension/Gauge:
For 4ply using a 4.5mm hook you should get approx. 15 dc’s x 25 rows over pattern before blocking. Swatch as follows:
Always make more stitches than you need. For 10cm, 40ch,
Row 1: 1dc in the 2nd ch from hook, * ch1, sk1, 1dc in next chain, rpt from * to end. Turn. (20st)
Row 2: 2ch for the turning ch, (does NOT count as a stitch), * sk1 (dc of the previous row), 1dc in chsp, 1ch, rpt from * to end, with your last stitch in the turning ch of the previous row, turn.
Row 3: 2ch, sk1, 1dc, 1ch, rpt from to end. Turn.
Repeat rows 2 and 3 until you have a square swatch. Then measure. If you have more rows/st than tension states, then you will need to increase the size of your hook, if you have less rows/sts, then you will need to go down a hook size.
