SKILL LEVEL:

Intermediate - This pattern is for those who feel comfortable with crocheting and have made a few projects, using various skills and techniques. Skills/concepts include: working from a diagram, textured stitches, and picot edging.

Notes from the Designer:

Inspired by the Spanish word for summer, this beautiful, crocheted shawl is light and airy and uses only two stitches. The shawl begins with a center triangle, and then additional rows are worked on the two opposite sides of the shawl. The rows of Moss stitch add additional surface texture and visual interest. The picot edging adds a delicate finish to the border. Let it sweep you away to a faraway summer escape!

  • Please carefully read through the pattern before starting your project.
  • You will want to check your gauge throughout the project to ensure you have enough yarn.
  • The pattern begins with the top center triangle. The body of the shawl is achieved by picking up and crocheting the selvedge stitches along the right and left side of the top center triangle. (See Construction Diagram on page 7).
  • The size of the shawl can be increased or decreased by adding or subtracting rows in any of the sections.
  • Always end the section on Side A (RS).
