What Crochet Skills Will You Use In This Project?
The Raiwë Shawl Pattern by K.A.M.E. Crochet is a rewarding project for intermediate crafters. Its design is divided into several sections that vary in texture. This creates a great opportunity to practice different techniques. Apart from the basic stitches, the pattern uses puffs and shells, which add decorative textural touches.
Which Yarn Is Recommended For This Design?
This rectangle-shaped crochet shawl looks incredibly beautiful when made with gradient cake yarn. A fantastic choice is Scheepjes Whirl, but you can also go with any other fingering weight yarn. The designer used the Fruity ‘O’ Tutty colorway to make the shawl seen in the photos. You will need one cake of 1094 yards (1000 m) to complete it.
Can You Make The Raiwe Shawl Larger?
The finished shawl is 59” long and 17.5” wide (150 cm x 44 cm) when made with fingering yarn and a 3.5 mm crochet hook. You can easily adjust its length by working more rows. To make it wider, be sure to chain a multiple of 7+3 stitches.
