Customer Appreciation:
“I’ve been looking for a shawl to crochet for my wedding in May- I want one that will be long enough for a shawl but also broad enough for a veil, or a head covering during the wedding. Most are too heavy but this is so lacy! I will also make a shawl for my sister who is my bridesmaid. Thank you!”

Before we get to the scarf pattern, if you enjoy crocheting simple shapes like rectangles, you may want to check out our Crochet Anything with Rectangles class where you’ll take the basic shape you already have down pat and turn it into useful, practical, and beautifully professional projects.

Sure wish there was a video that went with this! Hard to figure out #1 where to put hook after doing the first fsc and can't figure out how to do next row :'(
