Free shawl video tutorial and written pattern - Abbie

10/12/2018

Abbie has wonderful drape and is so warm wrapped around your shoulders and neck. The shawl uses Chantelle from Fiberifics squishy (number 3 weight/ DK/8 ply) yarn and a 6mm crochet hook. Using the larger hook than what is recommended for the shawl (usually recommends a 4mm/G hook) it gives the shawl wonderful drape

The shawl is names after Chantelle's daughter Abbie and Abbie is a fun and cheeky teenager who was also very excited that she had become "famous"

Welcome to this weeks tutorial. This pattern is designed by Gwen Kok from Ravelry (HUGE thank you for letting me use your pattern Gwen!) and it is such a pretty pattern, plus it is easy to make YAY. With so many different colour combinations it is going to be hard to stop at just one
I used Red Heart Super Saver Ombre on the scuba for my main colour and aRed Heart Super Saver in Light Grey for my contrast colour
I used Gwen's free written pattern
