Autumn Waltz Shawl

Made with fabulous Malabrigo Sock yarn, Autumn Waltz is a simple triangular shawl worked from the top down and trimmed with a pretty ruffle border. The size makes it possible to wear it both as a shawl and a scarf.

Finished Dimensions (Blocked):

One size: 56" (140cm) wingspan, 25" (62.5cm) spine

Skill Level:

The pattern assumes knowledge of basic Tunisian crochet techniques, specifically how each row is worked as two separate passes, how to work Tunisian simple stitch, knit stitch and reverse stitch, and how to bind off your work.

You can find a few Tunisian crochet tutorials on my website.

A picture tutorial, walking through the first four rows, including a rather unusual method of creating a nice clean top edge is included in the pattern.
