The Amazing Grace Pocket Shawl by Elena Hunt is incredibly feminine and lovely. Adorned with popcorn stitches, it delights with a fun bobble texture and a very soft feel. It’s finished with a cute shell border on each bottom side that adds some extra flair to it. This long, handmade wrap is sure to make a stunning spring accessory!
Is the Amazing Grace Shawl Suitable for Beginners?
If you feel comfortable with working basic stitches, the Amazing Grace Pocket Shawl is suitable for your level. It will also be a great chance for you to learn treble crochets and bobble stitches.
You will start crocheting this project with an initial chain from which you will build the body of your shawl using a repetitive stitch pattern. Once you have achieved the desired length for the wrap, you will detail it with a scalloped edging on either end. Finally, you will add two handy pockets that can be used not only to warm your hands but also to stash your essentials.
Which Yarn Should I Use for a Soft, Cozy Finish?
We want our crochet shawls to be warm, drapey, and beautiful. Choosing the right yarn is half the battle when it comes to creating comfortable and stylish clothing accessories. For this crochet pocket shawl, pick medium-weight yarn in your favorite color and a 6 mm crochet hook. Acrylic fibers are a great choice because they provide softness and an excellent drape.
The pictured sample was made with Red Heart Bunches of Hugs. Unfortunately, this yarn is no longer available, but you can easily substitute it with Red Heart Super Saver or Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice.
When Should I Wear This Crochet Pocket Wrap?
This crochet wrap makes a perfect accessory to style with warm weather outfits. Drape it over your shoulders when wearing an elegant dress, chic sleeveless top, or flirty skirt. It will keep you warm during breezy spring mornings and late summer evenings. Put it on when heading to a wedding, church, or a special date out, and stay warm and beautiful!
