South Bay Shawlette
While we’re all talking crochet, I thought I’d better show off the South Bay Shawlette I completed at Sewjourn.
This shawlette is a lovely size. I was inspired to start crocheting some shawls/shawlettes by the gorgeous ones made by Michelle. This one is crocheted in wool/nylon hand-dyed sock yarn from One Fat Slug. What pretty colours!
The pattern is basically a two row repeat, so once you are past the first few rows it’s very easy to get into the swing of things. I crocheted this on the train, at friend’s houses, standing up at assembly…
I ran out of yarn before I could do the final edging row, but it doesn’t seem to matter. Now I’ve got the shawl bug – I’ve joined the 10 shawls in 2010 group on Ravelry. I’m a little late to the party, but we’ll see how I go! There are definitely more than 10 shawls in my queue now…
I like this one – It looks fantastic!! I might have to add it to my (ever-growing) queue… 🙂
It looks great. I am currently making a shawl and it’s gonna be nice and warm when I finish (if I finish). But I like the look of this one, it is excellent.
Lara! It looks fantastic!! Love the yarn you have used too – very soft and flowy – almost like a mermaid shawl!
Hey Lara, I just finished one after seeing Michelles too. Great pattern. Except I dont think mine is big enough. Oh well.
looks great in the variegated yarn
I’m Really Enjoying seeing knitting & Crochet taking a turn for the Better…Once it was classed as Old Fashion now it’s the New…Your Shawl is just Lovely…
cheers
I really like this!
Nice work 🙂
it looks so warm and snuggly. i love the pretty colour too.
It’s gorgeous Lara – love the pattern and the colour and the great way it sits.
It’s beautiful Lara. As always I’m envious of your proficiency with the hook!
Hi!
I found your blog through the Hexagon Shrug. Now I read you also made the south bay shawlette. I love this pattern, too! I also let out the edging, it really doesn´t matter. I like your blue marbled colors too. Perhaps I make another one for the sommer…, of a light yarn…
