Crochet Tutorial: Summer Shawl

Crochet Tutorial: Summer Shawl

It’s that time of the year when those summer days can turn into cool summer nights and you need that perfect wrap just to cut that chill while you’re sitting around a fire or taking a walk along the beach. Why not create this shawl that would be beautiful and the perfect accessory to any outfit. It would be the perfect Mother’s Day gift, a gift you could make for your bridesmaids, or a hit for anyone on your gift list, any time of the year!

I used this ombre yarn by Lion Brand Yarns Shawl in a Ball in the color Community Coral. I fell in love with the feel and look of this textile! I designed a simple repeat pattern making this a quick, easy, yet stunning wrap in less than two days. Perfect for a cool evening to wear over a sundress or top. The versatility of this piece allows for several ways to wear!

Summer Shawl
This summer shawl is perfect for cooler nights, chilly mornings, and anytime you need to be wrapped in a bit of warmth. Shown below is the front view with it tied.

    • Hmm, Not sure why it’s not working. Maybe search in Google for the “Shawl in a Ball” Yarn. It should come up on the Lion Brand Website. Sorry about that!! ~Nadia

  2. Thank you for sharing your story. You have been through so much and you have positive ways to keep your spirit up. Thank you for sharing your love of crochet

  3. I finished it! I did it. This was the hardest thing I’ve made. This shawl was easier then I thought it was going to be. Since it was my first time making a shawl I used red hart yarn red. The shawl is for my mom.

  4. Love your shawl pattern! I have a question…do you pull the yarn from the outside or inside of the shawl in a ball?

  5. Thank you very much for your great video. It’s my first time making a shawl. I’ve ordered “Shawl in a ball” yarn on Amazon ’cause Impossible to find it in my town… but my first one is made with another yarn… all in blue. Love from France : JOELLE
