Beaded Triangular Shawl

This deep purple shawl is made of a triangular granny square, a simple design, but made so much better with the addition of shiny purple beads. 

I used one skein of Loops & Threads Woolike in Purple with an F hook. 

Ch 5, join with sl st to form ring

Row 1: ch 4 (counts as dc, ch1), (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc, ch 1, dc) in ring

Row 2: ch 4 (counts as dc, ch 1), turn, *3 dc in ch 1 sp, ch 1; rep from * to end to center ch 1 sp, (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) in center ch 1 sp, ch 1, *3 dc in ch 1 sp, ch 1; rep from * to end to last ch 1 sp, 3 dc in last ch 1 sp, ch 1, dc in 3rd ch of beg ch 4

Rep row 2 until shawl is desired size. Fasten off and weave in all ends. 

You will also need some coordinating beads, a needle, and matching thread. 

Cut a length of thread and knot the end. Pull through one of the corners to secure it, and then thread about 4" of beads. Thread the needle back up through all the beads except the one at the end, so that it doesn't come undone. Make a stitch through the scarf to tighten it. 

Make two more strands of beads in this same manner. Fasten off the thread, making sure to knot it and hide it within the yarn. 

Repeat for the other two corners. 

All finished!

My finished shawl is 24" deep and 54" across the top. 

Enjoy this pattern!
