This is worked in Tunisian crochet. I wanted to keep the Tunisian crochet stitches simple while exploring some dramatic colour changes. The bulk of the shawl is worked in Tunisian net stitch. There is a honeycomb stitch border to stop any curling. The shawl starts at the bottom edge and is worked up. The hood is worked on one side edge,using honeycomb stitch, and is seamed along the top edge. Pattern is written in English and uses UK terms.

Verdant Hooded Shawl - Pattern Notes
Pattern rows are Forward Pass instructions only. Follow each row with a Return Pass.
Return Pass instructions: Ch1, yo, pull through next 2 loops on hook; repeat from until 1 loop remains on hook.
Instructions in brackets are worked the number of times specified eg x2.
Instructions marked by an asterisk * are worked once, and then repeated the specified number of times.
The colour changes are at the end of the Return Pass - when you have two loops left on the hook, drop the old colour, pick up the new colour and pull through the last two loops, ready to start the next Forward Pass.
