"Fun and geometric are two great words to describe the Lois Shawl. It's got so much personality to it, with all those blunt corners, but you can add to it with some fun tassels or fringe (so much room for customization). Altogether they create a flowy and twirly party in one shawl. It was made using size #1/ fingering weight yarn but any yarn would be good, just be sure to check your gauge. And don't forget to have fun."

Open Weave Crochet Summer Shawl
Hot days and cool nights means it is time for a crochet open weave summer shawl. This pattern uses easy crochet stitches and two fresh yarn colors along with fun fringe to create a beautiful lacy shawl.This shawl is so pretty. It has a lovely drape and the fringe on the ends make it just feel flowy and luxurious. The color of green is so bright and fresh. Reminds me of a young lady that I was thinking of when making this pattern is easy going. She has an infectious, bright, sunny personality.
The Courtney Crochet Scarf With Fringe
"Soft, flowy, warm and gorgeous are the best descriptors for the Courtney Crochet Scarf with Fringe. At first glance you may think you'll be working star stitches to make the scarf. And while you'd be really close, this stitch isn't quite as full as a star stitch. (Which also means it is less of a yarn eater!) You'll love working this quick stitch and making a scarf that looks lovely and would make a great gift. Although it may look complicated, it is really simple."
Lightweight C2c Geometric Shawl
"This pattern is for an easy C2C (corner to corner) rectangle shawl perfect for cool Summer nights. I used Bernat's Softee Baby Cotton Yarn for this shawl, and came up with the geometric design while I was at JoAnn's looking at the color options available. I packed the yarn up to take with me on vacation, and had a lot of fun making this design come to life - makes me want to work everything up in a geometric pattern! You can definitely use other fiber choices in place of cotton, but you will need to go up a hook size or two."
Ashley Pocket Shawl
Pocket shawls are all the rage right now, and why not? They are super cute and cuddly! They give just the right amount of style to a simple outfit, and keep you warm to boot! And, they're perfect coverups for formal attire, as well. Don't want to wear a cardigan over your gorgeous dress or outfit? Throw on this gorgeous pocket shawl and you're ready to go! Make it in white, and you have the perfect accessory for a winter wedding. They are literally awesome for just about any occasion! This pattern with stated gauge will create a 57” long x 17.5” wide shawl (not including fringe). If you choose to add fringe, the fringe I put on was about 6.5” long after tying on.
Big Sky Shawl
Life is often hard, and even the clearest skies have clouds sometimes. And as crocheters, we can make it better. One way is by making prayer or comfort shawls for those who need an extra hug, and to feel our love. The Big Sky Shawl was designed with this idea in mind - while maintaining a sense of style. The Big Sky Shawl is made with Lion Brand Homespun, a favorite yarn for those crafting for others. It's warm, soft, and the yarn creates the texture - which means simple stitches shine. And the Big Sky Shawl does indeed use simple stitches, so almost anyone can make this easy crochet prayer shawl pattern! The colors I used for the Big Sky Shawl are Montana Sky and Clouds - appropriate, no? Streaks of gray cut through the blue sky, but there is more blue than gray, to remind us of the bright times to come. The shaping creates a triangular shawl that's more V shaped than anything, with corners that wrap easily around the shoulders to stay in place. And it doesn't just help the person you give it to - it helps you too! Studies have shown time and again how crocheting improves our mental health, making this an excellent way to help others while you help yourself. You can wear the Big Sky shawl across the shoulders as a standard shawl, or wrapped around the neck with the point in front - either way, the optional tassels on the points help keep it where you put it. It's only 20 rows long (plus a couple rounds for the border), so you can whip one up in a just a few evenings.
