Light and drapey, versatile and soft - the Seaglass Shawl has it all. As fun to make as it is to wear, the main body of this triangular shawl works up quickly in easy TC filet and solid TC stitch. It then moves into a section of beautiful, colourful mixed stitches, and is finished off with a delicate picot edge.
This pattern was originally published in Crochet Now issue 15.

Skill Level

Materials
3mm (D/3) crochet hook, or as required to obtain gauge

wool needle
Yarn: Fru Valborg Merino Single (fingering; 365m per 100g skein; 100% superwash merino) - 3 skeins in Azure (MC); 1 skein in Oak Light (CC1); 1 skein in Muddy Pink (CC2); 1 skein in Glacier Bay Dark (CC3)
Actual Yardage Used
MC (Azure) - 200g / 730m
CC1 (Oak Light) - 58g / 212m
CC2 (Muddy Pink) - 38g / 139m
CC3 (Glacier Bay Dark) - 16g / 59m
Yarn Alternatives
Any fingering to 4-ply yarn (look for a meterage of 340 to 380m per 100g) will result in a similar drape and size. Use 100% cotton for a light, summery shawl or a merino and silk blend for a warm and luxurious feel.
Gauge
21 sts x 11 rows = 10 cm measured over main patt (3 rows of TC filet, 1 row of solid TC) after blocking. Gauge is not crucial for this pattern, but if different it will affect finished size and yardage.
NOTE: The original sample of this shawl, as it appeared in Crochet Now, uses TC filet st throughout for the main body of the shawl. This version uses a little less of the MC yarn and has a looser structure. Instructions for this version are included in the pattern.
Construction
This triangular shawl is worked flat from the top down, with increases at the far edges and the tip.
