So, you need a shawl. Which one to choose, though… there are so many patterns out there. Consider the Pop-Up Shawl pattern by Wilma Westenberg. It’s a lovely medium-sized shoulder wrap with a very attractive grey-scale gradient. It’s a triangular shawl, which means that it drapes nicely down the back and has a beautiful finishing touch in the tassels at the corners.
Why the Pop-Up Shawl is a Must-Make
This pattern is perfect for those who like simple repeats with a bit of texture. The 10-row repeat consists of 7 rows of double crochet, 2 rows of chain stitches and 1 row of popcorn stitches, adding a beautiful dimension to the project.
The shawl grows quickly, making it a satisfying project for beginners looking to make their first wardrobe project.
What Materials Should I Use?
Gradient yarn is sure to provide best effects in this project, creating beautiful color transitions. The pattern suggests using fingering yarn and a 4 mm crochet hook with which you should achieve the perfect gauge.
How to Wear Your Pop-Up Shawl
This versatile crochet triangle shawl can be styled in many ways. You can wear it draped over your shoulders, wrapped around your neck, or pinned with a shawl pin. The lightweight material makes it ideal for layering in different seasons.
