    I made this shawl once with Red Heart It’s a Wrap and love it so much, I’m making a second one in a different color. I get so many compliments on it…if they only knew how easy it was to make! Thanks for a great pattern and video. 😊

      @WindingRoadCrochet  Рік тому

      You are so welcome. I am so happy you like it. You can make it with any yarn, just pick a hook that works well with the yarn and then work as many rows as needed to get the desired size.

      You are welcome. I never expect you to know how to read a chart, I just think they make wonderful visual aids and I use them whenever I can when teaching crochet stitches and patterns. If you like the method I recommend you check out my other pattern videos and my Corner to Corner Crochet Tutorials.

    • @WindingRoadCrochet
      @WindingRoadCrochet  5 років тому

      I am glad you enjoyed it. The pattern will work with larger yarns. You will just have to change your hook and work less rows. Just work as many rows until it reaches the desired size.

    This is literally the only shawl pattern I've ever been able to follow. No counting to the third stitch of some past row and saying a prayer... just simple and straightforward. I do, however, think I'm going to size way up on the hook for a lacier look.

    • @WindingRoadCrochet
      @WindingRoadCrochet  5 років тому

      I am glad you like the pattern, you can change the hook or the yarn size and the pattern will remain the same. Just stop working rows when the shawl is big enough for you. I want to make this one with a bulky yarn someday.

      You will chain 3, work your 3 double crochet into the first stitch (you normally skip this stitch when you count the turning chain as a stitch), then when you get to the end you will work the last 3 double crochet into the last stitch not into the turning chain. If you look at the graphs at the video at (4:14) you can count the stitches and see that they stay even. Let me know if this helps!

    So the chain 3 doesn't count as a stitch?

    • @WindingRoadCrochet
      @WindingRoadCrochet  4 роки тому

      That is correct. Most patterns will count it, but for almost all of my patterns I do not count the chain 3 as a stitch. I just don't like having to work the last stitch into a turning chain.

      Just gently tug on that. Most things can be fixed by blocking it at the end.

    Good, clear instructions, thank you. But why is the picture above so much more open? It looks quite lacy. Is this achieved by using a bigger hook than the yarn calls for? I'm working on a tes piece so have incresed to an 8mm hook with a DK (UK) yarn.

    • @WindingRoadCrochet
      @WindingRoadCrochet  4 роки тому

      Yes, for a lighter airier shawl use a larger hook. The full shawl that you see uses a lace yarn and a size h hook, which is larger than recommended. Just play around with your hook size to get the drape you would like.

    Thank you for this. I would class myself as an advanced beginner and this pattern is very simple. I’m working with a cashmere yarn that is much lighter than I usually use and it’s giving me problems! 😂

      it can be tough using a new type of yarn.

      @@WindingRoadCrochet It doesn’t help that it’s a very dark blue, either. Anyway, I realised that it was working up in a diamond shape so I read the comments on your blog and ended up frogging 20 rows! Now I’ve added on extra chain to the turning and middle chains, and I’m doing four doubles into the first and last stitches, and that’s making a straighter edge. I am determined to finish it, it’s for my friend who has just been diagnosed with cancer.

    I found out yesterday that someone very precious to me is very sick. I hate those times in your life that things so desperate, so heart breaking happen and it seems like those are the times that you feel most helpless because you can not do anything. But I can pray. I knew I wanted to make a prayer shawl for her, one filled with love and prayers and well wishes and tears and good memories and I immediately began searching for a shawl that I could manage. I'm maybe intermediate. I finally found your shawl and it was exactly what I was looking for. Something I can make with my skill level while not having to focus intently on the stitching, leaving me able instead to focus on my sweet aunt. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart.

      Hello Lacy, I am sorry to hear that your Aunt is sick. I am glad that my pattern was able to bring you comfort. My mother fought cancer for 7 years and I know how nice it is to have a portable project to keep your hands busy. Enjoy the pattern and I hope your Aunt gets better soon.

      I may actually do a sweater video soon, the pattern will be for a adult size sweater but in order to see what I am doing I will be making a baby sweater. The techniques will all be the same the starting chain and row count will just be different from the adult size.

    So, I'm almost finished making this, I've gone up to 50 rows instead of 47, but my question is the one side, that is "mostly" even, did you do a single crochet stitch to finish it off or left it as is? Would it be ok to finish it off with the SC stitch?

  • @crochetcorner3218

    I missed the last three dc at the end, until I was watching again. Will this make a difference if I statrt now. I am on row 20, or should I start over? Great video btw.

    • @WindingRoadCrochet
      @WindingRoadCrochet  5 років тому +1

      I think you will notice a difference. it may be very slight, but it just depends on you. The 3 DC at the end will keep the top of the shawl nice and straight.
