Chocolette and Pacific are calm, comforting shawls to wrap up in: simple to make, easy to wear, and full of quiet texture. They share the same stitch patterns but use different constructions.

In this post, you’ll find:
• How each shawl is constructed
• Tips for adjusting the size
• How to calculate yardage
• Color ideas to inspire you
• A quick tutorial for the X-sc stitch used in both patterns.

In this post, I am sharing all the details about the Chaitee crochet top - its construction, shaping options, yarn choices, color inspiration, and tips for substitutions!

Whether you are planning to make it in merino or cotton, you’ll find helpful info to guide your project.

The Botanika shawl design started with three skeins of yarn, which should be enough for a shawl and... nothing else! My mind was completely clear and I had no ideas at all.

When I need to find a starting point on which to base my research, I look at the yarn's colorway and find a word to describe it. It was a peacock. It didn't mean anything to me, but that's enough for the beginning.
