Crochet Pocket Shawl

Fiber & Textile Completed Projects
1

I’m finally getting into crochet and loved this pattern I came across. It’s pretty simple and fun. I used smaller hooks, per the instructions, because I knew my tension was still a bit loose as I’m getting my footing. I think I could have gone down even more, and maybe should have compensated more for the pockets, to better match the pattern. But it turned out really cute anyway, and I learned a lot. I’m planning to make a few different ones for holiday gifts. I used Super Saver yarn on this one in Grey Heather, for cost-effective practicing.

Excellent work! I like that it is sort of like chunky lace. Crochet is addictive - luckily you have enablers around you here :sweat_smile:

Thank you all so much! Crochet is totally addictive! I was scared of it for years, and stuck with knitting. I didn’t know what I was missing! It’s my new fave.
