How to crochet an easy rectangle shawl worked in the classic granny stitch pattern and worsted weight yarn. Available in 3 sizes, but easy to customize!

Video tutorial included.

Grace Tinley is one of my series that feature the beautiful, classic granny stitch pattern. This is a beginner friendly series, and this shawl is great project to pair with watching your favorite TV show or movie. Use a soft tape measure to measure as you go, and stop at the length desired. If you decide to work in a color block or stripe pattern, you’ll want to count rows just to make sure the blocks are even.

Materials:

• 750 (1100, 1615) Yards of Worsted Weight Yarn – I used Red Heart Super Saver in the Shocking Pink colorway
• H8/5mm Crochet Hook
• Tapestry Needle
• Optional: G6/4.25mm Hook (for Border), Locking Stitch Markers & Soft Tape Measure

Material Notes:
I worked the smallest size, and 2 skeins worked a total of 116 rows, which is equal to 58 1/2”. I stopped here because I did not want to have to take such a small amount of yardage for the remaining rows (about 25) from another skein of yarn, but if you want to do the full length, you’ll need 2 full skeins plus a small amount.

Why switch to a smaller crochet hook for the border? In my experience, a change in tension causes ruffles in the border, especially seen on the sides. My quick fix is to simply go down a hook size. You can also continue with the same hook you’ve been working with, and just block the finished shawl.

I like to use locking stitch markers to help me keep track of the number of rows I’ve worked. I place them every 30 rows.

Gauge is not essential so you do not need to take it if you don’t want to, but I still think a soft tape measure is great to have on hand to measure as you go.

Time Spent:
I worked up the 15” by 60” size in just under 6 hours.

3 Women’s sizes included. These sizes are average adult sizes. It really all depends on your preferences, like if you like to wear it more like a scarf or wrap around your shoulders and arms, and how much overhang you like on your shawl.

Gauge (not essential) with H8/5mm Hook:
In pattern, 5 clusters + it’s respective space = 4 1/2” wide; 6 rows = 3” tall

A really easy way to check your shawl is to measure after about 6 rows. This will be the finished width of your shawl (unless you add a border). It’s so easy to work up until you reach the length that you like, and you don’t even need to count your rows - you can measure as you go with a tape measure.
