The Edlothia shawl is a beautiful, diaphanous and gauzy shoulder throw most evocative of a dragonfly wing. It's likely the best summer shawl in terms of lacy, airy structure. Moreover, the delicate color gradient beautifully highlights the “almost-not-there” ephemeral structure of the shawl. This is a slightly more challenging pattern which befits a garment as gorgeous as the Edlothia shawl. Take it on as a challenge; as a way of keeping interested, if you are more advanced, and as a way of upping your game, if you're not.

Florentina Shawl
Florentina is a light and delicate Crochet Lace Triangle Shawl made in a beautiful gradient yarn. This pretty shawl works up quickly with an easy 2-row repeat pattern. Add a small fringe for a stylish touch! Blocking is recommended to open up the stitches in the lace pattern, creating a diaphanous airy shawl. The pattern looks so lovely in a gradient cake yarn but 2 skeins of any fingering weight yarn from your stash would also look beautiful - you can get creative with the way you use the colours! The pattern will work with any weight yarn and matching crochet hook. Once you have the pattern repeat established, you can stop when your shawl is big enough, or you run out of yarn.
Bat Wing Shawl
The Bat Wing Shawl was designed with the declining number of bats in North America in mind. About six million bats have died from a fungus, which is one of the worst animal population declines in the last hundred years. Bats are majestic creatures that have inspired many cultural phenomena like Batman, Dracula, and the children's classic book Stellaluna. They deserve our support as a species, so what better way than to commemorate them with a crochet pattern?
