Ready for the first part? So let’s begin

Part 1 : Main shawl

 Abbreviations:

ch – chain

Sc – single crochet

hdc – half double crochet

dc – double crochet

sp – space

st – stitch

P – Picture

 Note:

  1.  When working the chains at the beginning of the rows (1, 2, 4), it is recommended to work loosely in order to ease the entry into them later.
  2. Be sure to count all the stitches at every repeat of the pattern rows, and to work into the 3rd ch of the ch3.
    To make the count easier, there are in page 8, details of the number of stitches at the end of every repeat.
  3. Gauge: (fits for recommended yarn and hook) after row 5 you’ll get a isosceles triangle, each side will be about 9 cm (3.54”). If you got a different size, change your hook accordingly (for a shorter side’s length – use a larger hook, for a longer side’s length – use a smaller hook), if you decide to stay with your own gauge, or if you use a different yarn it is also ok, just take into account that the shawl’s size will differ from the recommended sizes and you may need a different amount of yarn.
