Is the Effortless Shawl An Easy Pattern?
If you are looking for a beautiful triangle shawl crochet pattern that you can make fast with minimal effort, consider crocheting this one. You work it in one piece with a combination of basic and tall stitches. It’s the kind of crochet project that will take your upper beginner crochet skills to the next level.
What Yarn and Hook Should I Use for This Shawl Pattern?
The Effortless Shawl will look tremendously beautiful when worked with ombre yarns.
The sample seen in the images features Hobbii Twister, which is a sport-weight yarn available in fabulous gradient colorways. It comes in cotton and acrylic fiber content, with which you will produce a light, soft, and breathable shawl. One skein (1094 yards) of this beautiful cake yarn is enough to complete this project.
The designer paired it with a 4.5 crochet hook, but any other hook size that allows you to obtain the gauge will be great.
Can I Make This Crochet Shawl Bigger?
The pattern provides instructions for a 62” wide and 31” long shawl that offers ample coverage. However, if you’d like to increase the size of your accessory, you can do so by repeating 3-12 rows as many times as you need.
Another easy way to modify the shawl size is to go for a bigger hook or thicker yarn, but this may change the general feel of your work, giving it a bulky look.
