Mountains Shawl Crochet Pattern

The Mountains Shawl is a beautiful lace design worked in a stunning gradient yarn cake.

The design is worked lengthwise from top to bottom.  This allows you to work the design as a continuous, solid piece right down to the final edging at the bottom.  The use of the gradient yarn cake allows you to add colour easily and seamlessly!

The Mountains Shawl is rated as an Intermediate crochet pattern.  However if you are having difficulty, be sure to check out the full free video tutorial below.  The design features a variety of stitches that create waves of open work situated between waves of solid stitches.  It is finished off with a simple picot edging.

I am sure you are going to love this shawl! Wear it as a comfort item around the house or out on the town, perhaps to that special event or wedding that is soon approaching!
