    This pattern is for a top-down crocheted shawl that increases in size with each row. It uses a lace-weight yarn and larger hook than normally recommended to create an open, lacy fabric. The shawl is worked in repeating patterns of rows that include chain space increases to expand the width. Markers are used to track the placement of increases across rows. The pattern is worked for several repetitions until the desired size is reached, then a border is added to finish the shawl.

    Eva’s Shawl

    This pattern should work with any weight


    of yarn. I used a lace weight with a size
    4mm hook. A decent sized shawl takes
    about 100 - 150g of laceweight yarn.

    The shawl is crocheted top down, with


    increases every row, and can be made
    any size - just stop crocheting when it’s a
    bit smaller than the desired size (bearing
    in mind that if you are using blockable
    fibres (e.g. wool , alapca, cashmere)
    it will increase in size when it is blocked).

    To get a nice lacey shawl you will need


    to use a larger hook size than that
    normally recommended for the weight of
    yarn - play with different hook sizes until
    you are happy with the results.
