This curved, triangular Tunisian crochet shawl was originally published in Inside Crochet magazine.
I designed it to show off colour-changing or variegated yarn - just perfect to use up the colourful yarn in your stash!
My colour choices are inspired by the colours of a city twilight when the sun begins to set and the bright city lights begin to sparkle. But you can choose your own!
You can see a video of the shawl in two sizes
here.
- You can adjust the size to make it bigger or smaller as desired - just continue or stop in the pattern! (The blue/black shawlette in the photos is a smaller size.)
- Beads on the lower and bind-off edges add sparkle and elegance.
- Reversible, flat fabric with plenty of drape: WS resembles knitted garter stitch.
- The lower edge has a decorative braided finish.
Details below apply to the red-orange/blue-black large shawl in the first photo.
