Pacific

€8.00

The Pacific shawl is worked from the bottom corner up to the center top, forming a square, then each half is worked separately to the tip of the wingspan creating a modified triangle that drapes beautifully over the shoulders.

Only the simplest crochet stitches are used: single crochet and chains which are combined in different ways to create three different textured stitch patterns, which are fun and easy to make.
