Trying out my hand at designing a crochet Asymmetrical shawl. I've made several Butterfly Shawls designs and wanted to try something new. I really like the way you can wear these Asymmetrical shawls, it's reminds me something between a cowl and a regular shawl the way I've seen it worn. I found the perfect stitch that looks great from both sides. Me and my husband actually like the way the back of the stitch looks better than the front side of the stitch. Which for us makes this a double sided Asymmetrical shawl! I'll let you decide. I really hope you enjoy this Asymmetrical shawl as much as I did making it. This shawl measures Wide 31 inches or 130 cms Tall = 36 inches or 91 cms For this project you will need: HOOK: 4 mm hook or size G hook for the US YARN: 3 skeins of ply 3 yarn ply US, 8 ply AU Each skein is: 100 grams / 3.53 oz 280 meters / 307 yards a marker

TagsV Stitch Butterfly Shawl
I've decided to try out a yarn cake! I've seen pictures of other's crochet projects when they used a yarn cake and I thought the color changes were beautiful! They have them at my local yarn store where I get most of my yarn but they never really had any colors that caught my eye. Plus, it would be a big investment because each Yarn cake is 1,000 meters and cost 75 shekels (that's roughly 21 dollars) for just one skein! But I suppose that's why they call it a cake and not a skein, it's waaay more than a skein. I'm a plus size woman and this shawl fits me like a dream! I love these butterfly shawls!

Boux Asymmetrical Shawl
When sat there working the Boux rectangle shawl up which you can find here, i came up with the idea of doing an asymmetrical shawl using the same stitch pattern. Now i will be very honest, in the past when designing an asymmetrical shawl i always used the filet crochet method and i had never designed a shawl with an actual stitch pattern so it took a little more working out than normal (but not as much as the one that i am currently working on, new pattern coming soon YAY!) but the Boux asymmetrical shawl turned out just how i wanted it and it is actually one of my most personal favorites to date, i think because there was a sense of achievement in something i had never done before.
