About this pattern

The shawl grows from a single mesh at the tip to a straight top edge 301 meshes wide. Every row adds one mesh at each end, and the motifs come only from where you fill the meshes, so there are no special stitches to learn.

It is made for cotton crochet thread and a 1.5 mm hook, which gives a light, fine lace that drapes well over the shoulders.

What's inside

  • 9-page PDF in English, plus a separate Polish file
  • The full chart split over readable pages, with row numbers and bold lines every 10 meshes
  • Clear instructions for the start at the tip and the increases at both ends of every row
  • Blocking and finishing notes
  • A code for the guided row counter on this site

Every row spelled out

Enter the code from your PDF in our free row counter and it tells you how many open and filled meshes to work in each row, in the order you work them, with the row highlighted on the chart. Tap each group as you go, so you never lose your place in a long row.

How big will it be?

Crochet a small swatch of open and filled meshes (about 20 × 20), block it, then measure 10 meshes and 10 rows in the middle.

Measurements after blocking. A 1-chain mesh is usually a little taller than it is wide.
