Looking for a free shawl crochet pattern to try? This tranquil blue wide rectangular shawl crochet pattern with free printable PDF is a great project to try.
This crochet shawl pattern uses the single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, and the extended double crochet stitch. The extend double crochet is an easy variation. The rest of the crochet stitches used are basic.
This crochet stitch makes a raised alternating line pattern. It is a simple repeat crochet pattern, great for watching TV and crocheting. You could make it with any gauge 4yarn you would like.
A crocheted wrap would make a great gift too. You can choose a color to go with their style or a neutral that would work for anyone. They are practical too.
I love the multi-colored yarn. I chose Lion Brand Mandala Ombre because it reminds me of ocean and my favorite color is blue. This yarn is soft and easy to work with.
