Product Description
This is a pattern only and not a completed item.
Skill Level - Beginner - working with two colors is the only tricky bit.
The Turquoise Fiesta Shawl is made up of only one stitch (Tunisian Full Stitch) and the forward and reverse passes are made with different colors. This stitch creates a reversible pattern and is beautiful on both sides. The shawl can be worn either way!
Stitches used: Tunisian Full stitch
To make this shawl, I picked up two skeins of yarn and crocheted until one of them ran out. It is made up of a repeat of two rows so you don’t have to deal with a complex pattern. It is perfect for you if you are looking for something fun that does not require you to count stitches!

Turquoise Fiesta Shawl
What is Being Made
The Turquoise Fiesta Shawl is a crocheted wrap designed by Arunima Goel. This shawl features a vibrant two-color colorway that inspired its festive name. The design celebrates color experimentation and offers crafters an accessible entry point into shawl construction without the complexity of intricate stitch counting.
Design Approach and Inspiration
This pattern emerged from the designer's exploration of unconventional color combinations. Rather than relying on the traditional pairing of variegated yarn with black, Arunima Goel chose to work with turquoise as the complementary color, creating a dynamic and visually striking finished piece. The construction method is refreshingly simple: the crocheter works with two skeins of yarn simultaneously and continues until one skein is exhausted, making this an intuitive and forgiving approach to shawl making.
Crochet Techniques and Stitches
The Turquoise Fiesta Shawl is designed as a beginner-friendly crochet project, making it an excellent choice for those new to shawl construction. The pattern deliberately minimizes stitch counting requirements, allowing crafters to focus on technique development and color work rather than complex pattern tracking. This approach makes the project less intimidating for beginners while remaining engaging for more experienced crocheters seeking a relaxing, meditative make.
Yarn and Materials
This shawl is worked using two skeins of yarn in aran or worsted weight, providing good stitch definition and a fabric with pleasant drape suitable for a wearable wrap. The two-skein construction method means crafters can select complementary colors from their stash or choose a coordinated pair to achieve the vibrant fiesta aesthetic.
