Difficulty:
Easy

Materials Needed:
5.5mm (I) hook, or hook needed to obtain gauge
Approximately 2 skeins (740 yds) Red Heart With Love in Aran
Yarn needle
Scissors
Blocking board
T Pins

Stitches Used:
ch = chain
sc = single crochet
hdc = half double crochet
dc = double crochet

Additional Terms:
hdc in the 3rd loop: After turning, work all stitches for that row in the 3rd loop of the hdc from previous row (it will be in the front). Instructions: Look at the top of the stitch, and locate the sideways “V”, bend the stitch to look at the back, and you should see another “V”. You’ll be working into the back loop of that “V”, this is called the 3rd loop.For this shawl the textured portion created by working hdc in the 3rd loop should always be facing you when beginning a new row where working in the 3rd loop is called for.

Gauge:
13 hdc in 4”
Gauge is not especially important for this though since the increases can be carried out indefinitely (or until you run out of yarn).

Measurements:
The shawl pictured is 72” wide by 30” long. You can make yours wider or shorter based on how many repeats you do.
