Imperial Topaz wrap - Tunisian crochet pattern

A simple and elegant Tunisian crochet lace rectangle shawl made with gradient yarn perfect for beginners.

The first in the Gemstones collection, the Imperial topaz wrap takes its name from one of the rarest and most gorgeous gemstones, with a flurry of shades, from deep brick red, all the way to bright, light orange.

This Tunisian crochet pattern for beginners features rows of eyelets, separated by rows of simple stitches, reminding of the stacked facets of cushion-cut Imperial topaz gems. It is made from only one cake of yarn, all 1000 meters of it.
