Hello, my little chickadee! Today, I have an easy, beginner level, crocheted, corner-to-corner shawl to share with you. I think you’re going to love making this beautiful design. Read on to learn all about it!
Fale was designed by Jennifer Matlock. When asked about her inspiration for this pattern, she said, “Corner-to-corner (C2C) is such a fun technique to add to a crocheter’s stitch vocabulary. Once you learn the basics of construction – increasing, maintaining, and decreasing – you have the ability to make all kinds of modifications for unique and creative adaptations to any C2C pattern.”
“For Fale, I began with the idea for a very simple C2C rectangle shawl, increased the hook size over what I’d normally use for this type of yarn, and added sections of lace during the color transitions to achieve an ethereal showpiece that can dress up or down.”
This is a Beginner to Adventurous Beginner level pattern and is suitable for crocheters who are ready to learn some new skills or stitch combinations. Skills/concepts include single crochet, double crochet, basic lace, and color changes.
Fale is made with our luscious, luxurious Pearlescent Fingering yarn. Colors dyed onto this yarn base are super rich and saturated and appear iridescent and otherworldly! Pearlescent Fingering is a 50:50 blend of Superwash Merino Wool and Mulberry Silk. Smooth with a gorgeous gleam! When you combine these fibers into a single-ply yarn, you get subtle differences in tone, as the wool and silk take the dye differently. It’s a dreamy, fingering weight yarn that’s ideal for next-to-skin accessories like cowls, shawls, scarves, hats, and more! Unbelievably soft with a lovely drape and a shine that just won’t quit and 550 yds/503 m per skein!
We used our Sea Glass Hues Pearlescent Fingering Kit [550 yds/503 m per skein (2750 yds/2515 m per five-skein kit)] to make the sample shown here, and it used approximately 1026 yds (938 m) total: Color A: 157 yds (144 m), Color B: 287 yds (262 m), Color C: 295 yds (270 m), Color D: 213 yds (195 m), and Color E: 74 yds (68 m).
We made a video in which I talk about my love of C2C items and also show you how to crochet this shawl. Take a look!
