Sweet Shoppe Easy Crochet Asymmetrical Shawl

The Sweet Shoppe Easy Crochet Asymmetrical Shawl is the perfect project for those of you who are looking for something a little bit different. The color possibilities are endless. The colors of this shawl remind me of stepping into a sweet shoppe. Imagine stepping into an old-fashioned candy store. I can just see macarons stacked on tiered trays, cookies frosted with pastel colors, chocolate covered strawberries, jars of colored taffy, large rainbow swirl lollipops pops on sticks, and fancy pastries decorated with fillings and frostings.

The May Flowers Shawl is made up of granny squares with puff stitch flowers in the center. You can choose any colors you wish for your garden. This pattern is very easy. It's also thick and oh so warm, which is perfect for those unpredictable Spring temperatures! The only stitches you need to know are the single crochet, double crochet and the puff stitch. The border is made up of the moss stitch, which is single crochets and chains. This pattern can be altered to fit Youth through 5XL. A table provides the number of squares needed for each size.

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.

This Hooded Pocket Shawl is a free crochet pattern and perfect for autumn days when things begin to cool down. It has a generous hood and deep pockets so it keeps you snug and warm and looks great. The Hooded Pocket Shawl is made up of one long rectangle. There are two large pockets added to either end of the shawl and a hood that is also made out of a crochet rectangle. You will use half double crochet stitches, double crochet stitches and front post and back post double crochet stitches.

With a southwestern feeling, and looking a bit like a doily, this gorgeous shawl is the perfect accessory for cool summer nights or wrapping around yourself at the pool. The open pattern and breathable cotton used makes this a great summer fashion statement. Great to add a pop of color to a summer outfit without adding too much heat! Gauge isn't super important for this pattern, but the directions are written for a weight 4, medium, worsted weight yarn. I used 6 skeins Lily Sugar'n Cream. Substitue yarns to use are Bernat Handicrafter Cotton, Peaches an Crème, or Lion Brand Re-Up

The Simple Summertime Shawl by @oombawkadesigncrochet is the perfect summer accessory. This lightweight shawl is quick to crochet and uses only 1 skein of Lotus Blossom #shawlinaball by Lion Brand Yarn. The finished shawl measures 60 inches (wingspan) by 31 inches in height. You can alternately wear this pretty shawl as a light scarf with your fall wardrobe. The drape of the fabric will allow it to be worn in many different ways making it a very versatile project. This project was designed as part of the Design Create Repeat August Blog Hop!

The yarn I used is called Caron Simply Soft in Gold Ombre. I love the flow of the shades of gold and orange. It reminds me of a goldfish with the reflection from the water shimmering on it. I put the skill for this pattern at easy because it is basically rows of repeat with increases. And I think you will find that it stitches up pretty fast.

Tea Time uses Wonderland Yarns Mad Hatter mini-skein pack in Tea Time and Mad Hatter full size skein in White Rabbit to create a playful scarf of speckled stripes. Each colored stripe is smaller than the last, and each white stripe is smaller than the last. The look of this crochet wrap is beautiful and great for your next tea party or evening out! So grab your Wonderland Yarns and your hook and make your new favorite wrap!

A while back I created the Hoodie Cowl, and ever since I have been wanting to create a hooded cape based on it. I finally have, and it's everything I hoped it would be! The hood still has the cable running up the back, and the cape features 3 cables, one on the back, and one on each of the front edges. The cape can be completed with 3 skeins of Lion Brand Scarfie. Enjoy!
