Victoria Shawl Crochet Pattern

This pattern was first released in 2018. I had just received a few cakes of Victoria patterns to create something new. The Victoria Shawl came together easily. The simple stitch pattern, the fun way the long color changes happen in this self-striping yarn, and the fun tassels on each corner made this a favorite of mine.

Although I LOVE the way it looks using Contessa Pullover and wanted to see what this design would look like in a lighter weight.

Once again, a HUGE shoutout to my friends over at WeCrochet for providing the yarn to make the Victoria Shawl crochet pattern!

For this design I used Hawthorne Kettle Dye yarn in the color Contessa. This yarn is available at WeCrochet and comes in Kettle Dye (20 colorways), Multi (30 colorways), Speckle (15 colorways), Tonal (12 colorways), and Bare options. Using this yarn was an easy choice. Picking just one color? Almost impossible.

EXPERIENCE LEVEL

Easy

GAUGE

Not neccessary for the success of this project. Choose a hook size that feels comfortable for the size of yarn you choose. I recommend trying two sizes above what is on the yarn label.

SPECIAL STITCHES

Puff Stitch: [Yarn over, insert hook into stitch, pull up loop] 3 times, yarn over, pull through 6 loops, yarn over, pull through last 2 loops.

SPECIAL PATTERN NOTES

The Victoria Shawl is worked from the bottom point up. This means that any weight yarn can be used successfully. Just start with Row 1 and continue until your Shawl measurement is in line with the final wingspan found on the chart on Page 1. Use a hook size that is 2 sizes larger than what is recommended on the Yarn Sleeve.

Ch3 counts as a dc throughout.
