Tip:
Use a lightweight, gradient yarn to highlight the texture and drape of your finished shawlette and scarf cowl.

Materials Needed:

• Light weight yarn (Recommendation: K Weight Number 3) – approximately 3.5 oz skeins.
• Crochet hook size H/5 mm (or size needed to obtain gauge or desired drape).
• Scissors and a yarn needle for weaving in ends.
• Optional: Beads for embellishment.

Pattern Overview:

Starting the Shawlette:

• Start with a slip knot.

Row Setup:

• Chain 6, then double crochet in the fourth chain from the hook and in the next two chains.
• This forms your first “block” or “tile”.

Building Blocks:

• For each new block at the start of a row: Chain 6, double crochet in the fourth chain from the hook and in the next two chains.
• Rotate your work so the tail is at the bottom.
• Slip stitch into the “chain 3 space” of the previous row’s starting block.
• Chain 3 (counts as a double crochet), and then make 3 more double crochets into the same space.

Continuing Rows:

• Each row will increase by one block.

Continue creating blocks with:

• Chain 6 to start, and then proceed as above.
• Join to the adjacent block with a slip stitch into the chain 3 space.
• Complete each block by adding 3 double crochets into the same chain 3 space.
• Rotate work as needed to keep the tail end on the bottom.

Adding Width and Fastening Ends:

• Continue until the shawlette reaches a width that extends beyond your wingspan or desired final width.

Adding Borders:

 

• Start the border by chaining 3 (counts as a double crochet) at the edge of the shawlette.

Row 1 (Border):

• 2dc in the space between the blocks, chain 1 repeat to the edge, then start the scalloped edge with a chain 3.
• Add optional beads for embellishment following Helain’s bead tutorial.

Finishing:

• Cut and fasten off the yarn.
• Weave in all ends.

Optional:

• Add fringe or tassels to the ends for a finished look.
• Lightly block the shawlette to enhance the drape and even out the stitches.

Final Tips:

• Always make sure that the tail of the yarn is kept at the bottom to maintain the direction and alignment of the blocks.
• Experiment with different yarn weights and hook sizes to achieve different textures and thicknesses.

Notes:

• This shawlette can serve as a charming addition to your spring or autumn wardrobe, perfect for those slightly chilly mornings and evenings.
• It can be crafted from various yarn types and colors, including gradients for a fascinating color transition effect.
