Crochet Pattern - Whirly wings shawl - triangle crochet shawl - PDF pattern

This is a lace triangle shawl that fans out a bit at the tips, like wings. It mixes textured stripes with lacy triangle patterns in different sections. The edge has beautifully textured details with triangle patterns and several different beaded tassels to top it off perfectly at the ends.



Size and yarn
This is a one size shawl with a determined number of repeats, but the size can vary some depending on which yarn and hook you use. This is an example of how mine turned out with this yarn and hook. Blocking is recommended with this pattern but is also determined by which yarn you choose.


I made mine with the Scheepjes Whirl, color Blackcurrant squeeze me (fingering yarn, ~215 gram, 1000 meters). For my shawl I used a 3.0 mm (D) hook.


Recommended yarn is somewhere around a 3.0 – 4.5 mm hook size (around a D - G or a 3 – 7). A bigger sized hook and heavier weight yarn usually equals a larger shawl.


This shawl is smaller than a whole whirl, which is good to know. I think I used about 800 meters and some of the left over yarn became tassels!


I have also done this with a shorter yarn –Manos de Uruguay, Marina, which is 800 meters/ 874 yards, lace weight wool yarn with a 3.5 mm/ E/ 4 hook. I had enough left to do all tassels and some extra left over afterwards too. This means that you can use other yarns with shorter yardage than the Scheepjes Whirl or the Hobbii Twister, if you want to.
