ABOUT THIS SHawl:

Pocket shawls are all the rage right now, and why not? They are super cute and cuddly! They give just the right amount of style to a simple outfit, and keep you warm to boot! And, they’re perfect coverups for formal attire, as well. Don’t want to wear a cardigan over your gorgeous dress or outfit? Throw on this gorgeous pocket shawl and you’re ready to go! Make it in white, and you have the perfect accessory for a winter wedding. They are literally awesome for just about any occasion!

For this pattern, I used about 1400 yards of medium weight 4 yarn for the main body and pockets and an additional 65 yards for the fringe, so about 1465-1500 should be enough. I used this weight so that I could have something that was very warm even though it has some open weave. This particular yarn is Lion Brand Pound of Love. But, this shawl would be awesome in just about any weight 4 yarn you want to use, be it wool, cotton, or acrylic!

Also, gauge isn’t really important for this garment. If the shawl is a little larger or a little smaller it doesn’t make a bit of difference, unless you are really looking for a certain size.

This pattern with stated gauge will create a 57" long x 17.5" wide shawl (not including fringe). If you choose to add fringe, the fringe I put on was about 6.5" long after tying on. But, it is super east to add either length or width to the shawl and I tell you how in the notes section.

Hope you enjoy making this shawl as much as I enjoyed designing it!

THANK YOU! to all my wonderful testers!

Notes:

  1. Gauge isn’t particularly important and just about any medium weight 4 yarn will work for this pattern.

  2. A video tutorial on the Celtic Stitch can be found here: Happy Berry Crochet - Celtic Weave Stitch (she does not fptc into the hdc row, but for this pattern you do)

  3. A video tutorial on the Zeros and Crosses stitch can be found here: ByKaterina Designs - Crosses and Zeros Stitch (she crosses in front of the dc, we cross behind. It really doesn’t matter for the pattern look)

  4. If you want a longer shawl, add rows into the middle Celtic Weave section (Row 51 - Row 64) in multiples of 2 rows.

  5. If you want a wider shawl, add sts in multiples of 4 so that you maintain the number needed for all stitches.

  6. Ch2 and ch3 count as 1 stitch unless otherwise stated, so make sure you don’t put a st in the wrong place. Here is a good link to understand where to place the next stitches when the chains count as a stitch. Edie Eckman - Where to put the first stitch.

Fringe (optional):

1. I made fringe that is 13” long (6.5” when folded). An easy way to make fringe is to wrap it around something that is about half the size of the fringe you want, that way all the fringe will all be the same length. I used my e-reader to make my fringe. After wrapping it, cut the yarn along the bottom. 

2. Next, take 6 strands of the fringe and fold them in half. Pull the loop side through the scarf front to back then fold the loose side through the loop and pull it tight. I used a crochet hook to pull the loop through. Place the fringe evenly spaced along both ends of the shawl.

Happy crocheting!
