The Weekend Waffle Shawl is a squishy, cozy accessory for cold winter months. With three size options, you can make a scarf or shawl perfect for you and your style. This crochet waffle stitch resembles a thermal knit, in its look and practical warmth. To add color variation, try marling two thin yarns together or switch colors mid way through for a colorblock result.

CONSTRUCTION
—
The waffle stitch is worked flat side to side, a combination of the half double crochet and slip stitch, all worked in the back loop only. The shawl begins with a small corner that gradually increases to the full width, working the full width for a time, then gradually decreases to create the other corner.
