"The Jasmine Shawl is worked top down, you start with a long starting chain and then crochet in rows, i find even though it's a long starting chain the overall shawl pattern goes super quick and who doesn't want that! I made this shawl in three days but that was without blocking. Remember when you block your shawl to really stretch out the stitches, that's when the stitches really show at their best and even though this is made with aran yarn, once blocked it becomes super light and wearable, i also love you can wear shawls like scarves too and that truly makes it a versatile piece!"

Devon Sideways Shawl Free Crochet Pattern
Today's free crochet pattern is the Devon Sideways Shawl and this beautiful shawl is a filet crochet pattern meaning that it just uses the double crochet stitch and the chain stitch. I designed a filet crochet blanket not long ago of broken chevrons and wanted to do that as a shawl but i got a bit carried away and in the end it didn't end up as broken chevrons, it ended up as a double chevron but don't worry the broken chevrons is still on my list to do. This crochet pattern is very easy as it consists of working it row by row, flat and sideways and it works up super quick! This shawl only took me 4 days to complete and then a few extra days for blocking. Even though this pattern is a filet crochet pattern i still like to block my shawls as it gives it more of a crisper finish and it lays more flat.
Jasmine Stitch Triangle Scarf
"The jasmine stitch is a show-stoppingly beautiful crochet stitch, but it's been a little held back in the past because it's not clear how to increase or decrease. Well, look no further. This free pattern has a simple repeat, so you can work on it rather mindlessly once you know how. It also features a YouTube tutorial to teach you how to do the decreases (and refresh your memory on the jasmine stitch, in case you've forgotten). This pattern does take a while, because the jasmine stitch isn't the fastest, and it uses laceweight yarn, but the end result is worth it!"
