FAQ
What yarn to choose for a crochet pocket shawl?
It depends on what kind of shawl you’re going to make – types of yarn have various qualities. You can go for thick and warm winter yarn, or a lightweight and flowy yarn for a boho shawl. If you want it to be heavier, go for wool or acrylic yarn. When in need of a drapey one, choose lightweight wools, silk blends, or even cotton yarn.
If you’re wondering how many skeins of yarn you need for your perfect pocket shawl, take a look inside your crochet patterns’ notes. All free crochet patterns should tell you how much and what type of materials you need – for example, what size of crochet hook to use for a stitch pattern.
Which pocket shawl pattern will be the best for beginners?
The easiest way to add pockets to the shawl is to just fold the ends of it upwards and sew it in place, so that’s definitely a way to go! Truthfully, however, most pocket shawl crochet patterns are easy enough for beginners. If you’re looking for a quick project, choose the ones with as few details as possible and basic crochet stitches.
Why are pocket shawls better than regular rectangular shawls or triangle shawls?
Well, because… they have pockets 😉 But seriously, this little detail makes them much more fun to wear. You can put your hands inside when you are cold, or keep necessities inside when going for a quick walk.
I made the shawl by Carrie Chambers and it turned out beautifully. Looking forward to trying the other patterns posted here.
love this !!1
The Watson Waffle and socks are my favorite. They are all very pretty though.
I can see now where my yarn stash is going. I have two daughters, a daughter-inlaw, and four granddaughters. Oh wait I left myself out, I have at least eight to make.
Reply to my comment: I forgot to say what I was making…
It will be many of the pocket shawls.
Oh my I don’t know where to start. All so pretty. Thank you for being so kind and sharing free patterns.
The shawls look so cozy.
I know this random, but I want to make one of these for a lady and she tells she’ll need an xl because she has bigger chest. Will I need to adjust the shawl sizes for something that? I wouldn’t think so, but want to make sure it fits right.
