Named after the Queen of the fairies in Shakespeares ‘A Midsummer Nights Dream’ Titania is a graceful, delicate rectangular wrap with the strength and structure to hold up through cooler months. From the Greek meaning ‘Great one’ Titania is possibly the loveliest crochet piece I feel I have ever designed. I chose a silk/bluefaced leicester blend as both fibres are known for their sheen, strength and drape. This shawl hangs in a way that reminds me of water and its movement. The v stitches create a flower-like shape and run symmetrically either side of the central panel, like a reflection on still water. Feel every bit ethereal when you wear this piece.
An adventurous beginner can create this beautiful shawl as it requires the double crochet stitch and the half double crochet stitch. All terms are given in US terminology.

The shawl is worked horizontally beginning with the hdc centre panel. After 1 side of the pattern is worked, we work into the base of the centre stitches on the other side of the work. This creates the symmetrical effect.
