🧶 Materials

• Medium/lightweight yarn (soft drape yarn recommended)
• Crochet hook (approx. 3.5–4.5 mm)
• Scissors
• Yarn needle

---

🟦 PART 1: Foundation (Beginning Motif)

Step 1: Start chain

• Make ch 6
• Join with sl st to form a ring

---

Step 2: First round (inside ring)

• Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc)
• Work 11 dc into the ring
• Join with sl st to top of ch 3

👉 Total: 12 dc circle

---

🟦 PART 2: Turning Circle into Triangle

Step 3: Create triangle split

• Ch 4 (counts as tr)
• Work 1 tr in same stitch
• Skip 2 stitches
• Work 2 tr in next stitch
• Repeat until last stitch

👉 You now form clusters of treble stitches

---

Step 4: Form center point

• In the middle section:
  • Work (2 tr, ch 2, 2 tr) into one space

👉 This becomes the triangle tip (center spine)
This is repeated EVERY ROW.

---

🟦 PART 3: Main Pattern (Repeating Lace Design)

The shawl grows using:

• Treble crochet (tr) clusters
• Chain spaces
• Center increase (very important)

---

Step 5: Row repeat structure

Each row follows this structure:

Beginning edge:

• Ch 4
• 1 tr in same stitch (increase)

---

Pattern across:

Repeat:

• Skip space
• Work 2 tr in next space

---

Center (ALWAYS THIS):

• In center space:
  • 2 tr, ch 2, 2 tr

---

Continue other side:

• Mirror same pattern:
  • 2 tr in each space

---

Ending edge:

• Work 2 tr in last stitch

👉 This creates:

• Clean edges
• Balanced triangle growth

---

🟦 PART 4: Texture & Visual Pattern

In the video, the design creates:

• Vertical lace lines
• Slight fan/shell effect
• Light, airy fabric

👉 This comes from:

• Repeating 2 treble clusters
• Skipping spaces between them

---

🟦 PART 5: Row-by-Row Logic (VERY IMPORTANT)

Every row:
✔ Increase at start
✔ Repeat 2 tr pattern
✔ Increase at center (2 tr, ch 2, 2 tr)
✔ Mirror on other side
✔ Increase at end

👉 This is why it becomes a perfect triangle.

---

🟦 PART 6: Growing the Shawl

• Keep repeating rows
• The triangle gets wider and longer
• The lace pattern becomes more visible

💡 In the video, the shawl grows quite large for dual use:

• Shawl
• Bolero

---

🟦 PART 7: Turning into Bolero

As shown in the video:

Method:

1. Fold triangle around shoulders
2. Bring sides forward
3. Join/sew small sections under arms

👉 Creates sleeves effect

---

🟦 PART 8: Edge Finishing

Simple border:

• Work sc evenly around

OR

Decorative edge:

• (sc, ch 3, sc) in same stitch → skip → repeat

👉 Gives a delicate lace finish

---

🟦 PART 9: Final Step

• Fasten off
• Weave in ends
• Light blocking (optional but recommended)

---

❤️ Key Things From THIS Video (Important Differences)

✔ Uses treble crochet (not dc-based shawl)
✔ Pattern is cluster-based (2 tr groups)
✔ Center uses ch 2 space (not ch 1)
✔ Very airy, open lace structure
✔ Designed to easily convert into bolero

---

💡 Simple Summary

1. Make ring → 12 dc
2. Switch to treble clusters
3. Always increase at center
4. Repeat 2 tr pattern across
5. Grow triangle
6. Add border
7. Wear as shawl or bolero
