Plum Shawl
This soft yarn works up nicely into this slightly lacy triangular shawl. It is a shallow, wide triangle, perfect to wrap around your neck. 
I used 2 skeins of Heartland in Hot Springs with a J hook.
This stitch is perfect to show some design but still be nice and warm. 
I hope you enjoy this pattern!
Ch 5
Row 1: (dc, ch 2, dc, trc) in 5th ch from hook
Row 2: ch 4, turn, (dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in trc, ch 1, 2dc cluster in ch 2 sp, ch 1, (2 dc, ch 2, dc, trc) in top of ch 5 sp
Row 3: ch 4, turn, (dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in trc, *ch 1, 2dc cluster in ch 2 sp, ch 1, (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in 2dc cluster; rep from * to end across to last 2 dc cluster, ch 1, 2dc cluster in ch 2 sp, ch 1, (2 dc, ch 2, dc, trc) in top of ch 4 sp
*2dc cluster is just like a dc2tog, but it is only in one space*
Rep row 3 until desired size.
Edging:
Don't cut yarn, sc around two edges.
Row 1: ch 4, turn, (dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in 1st sc, *ch 1, sk 3 sc, 2dc cluster in next sc, ch 1, sk 3 sc(2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in next sc; rep from * to end across ( you may have to fudge it a little bit at the center point to get a (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) at the center)
Row 2 and 3: row 3 of main body
Fasten off, weave in any remaining ends.
My finished shawl is 88" across the top and 20" deep.
Xoxo, Alyssa
Hi! I wanted to make a swatch, and I think you're missing something in Row 3. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI read through it an found a spot that should have been 2dc cluster, and I had just had 2dc. I fixed that typo, but if you were thinking of something else, I'm not sure what it is.
DeleteHope that fixed it!
Thank you for your reply! Yes, I think that's it. I'll make up another swatch and see how it goes. :)
