Scenic Route Crescent Shawl

A generous crescent shaped shawl with gently diverging filet crochet zig zags, designed to work at right angles to the colour changes. Note that this shawl is designed to be worn draped over the shoulders, not wrapped around the neck.

This pattern uses only two simple stitches for the majority of the project; extended double crochet and chains. Because of the filet crochet zig zag pattern and attention to detail required, I would class this as an intermediate level pattern.

The finished shawl you see pictured measures approximately 52cm/21in deep and has a wingspan of 182cm/73in (length on the neck side as worn) after a gentle blocking

This pattern uses a 4mm crochet hook and approx 250-265g or 1000m/1100yds fingering or 4ply weight yarn.

The pattern is written in English using standard US crochet terminology.
