Abstract Allure Shawl

An Overlay Mosaic And Lacy Crochet Pattern For A Shawl

Introducing the Abstract Allure Shawl – a mesmerizing crochet pattern that blends the striking beauty of the Overlay Mosaic Technique with the delicate charm of lacy stitches. Written in US terms, this pattern guides you through the creation of a stunning shawl that’s sure to captivate with its intricate design and elegant drape.

The shawl’s centerpiece is a large square motif, crafted using the Overlay Mosaic Technique, worked on the right side (RS) only. Each round alternates between two colors, with BLSCs (back loop only single crochets) forming the open spaces and FLDCs (drop-down double crochets) creating the bold, textured “X” blocks. The pattern is worked in rounds, starting from the center and radiating outward, with every side identical to the others. To maintain the shawl’s symmetry, instructions and charts focus on just one side of each round, which you'll repeat four times to complete each round.
