Description

This pattern for a simple, lacy shawl uses an obtuse isosceles triangle

shape, which, in my opinion, gives you more styling options. You can wear this shawl as a scarf, loop it around your neck (with the ends tucked) as an infinity scarf, tie it as a shawl, or wrap it gracefully across your shoulders with a shawl pin.

It uses very basic stitches so it’s also a great lace pattern for a beginning crocheter (or, a great “binge watching” pattern for a more advanced crocheter).

This pattern is available for FREE on my blog. The free version is supported by advertising on my website. The downloadable PDF for sale on CraftFoxes includes the full pattern in one printable file without advertisements.
