Welcome back to The Crochet Crowd as well as Yarnspirations.com.
I'm you host Mikey. Today we're going to work on this
Simply Shawl. It's a free pattern available by
Yarnspirations.com
So let's begin today and decipher this pattern.
This is a really easy shawl. You can see it's got some
some beautiful um, spray work at the end with
some beautiful shells and this area in the middle
is so simple its not even funny. So without further
ado let's break down this pattern together.
You'll need four balls of Caron Simply Soft yarn to
play today and a size 'H', 5 mm crochet hook.
So before beginning this tutorial I made the full
sample here without the border so I'm gonna do
the border with you like on camera.
But I've done all the leg work as far as this main section that is,
is consisting of ninety-nine rows.
So what we have here is that when we go to look at it
we have the sprays, okay, there are shell work
and then three double crochet and then a shell
and then three double crochets.
So this is gonna take you a little bit of time in order
to make this. This is quite a long sample.
It's sixty-eight inches well about sixty-eight inches
uh, with the border so it's quite a long sample
but its not a complicated pattern. So if you're looking
at the diagram format of this, what happens is
that you just chain up three and then two more
double crochets in the next two and then, uh, a shell.
So skipping two and then go to the middle, do
a shell, skipping two, three double crochets
and you do that all the way across just like this.
When you go then up to the next row just
chain up three which counts as a double crochet,
double crochets in the others
and then you put the next shell in the middle one
of the shell below and then you keep building on that as you go.
And that's the whole panel just like you see here.
So we have to do a certain amount of rows of this.
The very last row is slightly different and, uh
there's gonna be some single crochets starting us off.
I'm gonna show you a smaller example just like here
and then I'm gonna take you to the border here
where I have done my sample here and I'll show you
I apply a border to this here.
So you can see its actually really quite a beautiful
thing because the luster of the quality
of the yarn by Caron Simply Soft, you'll see that
it will work up quite beautifully and it will drape
magnificently as well. So without further ado let's
grab some yarn. I'll teach you how to do this pattern
and then let's do the border together.
For demonstration purposes, I'm just gonna use a different
color here and then I'm gonna take you to the border
on the real sample, because I'm just gonna get you
started here because this is such a long panel to do.
So what you have here is that you're just gonna start
off with a slip knot and you're using Caron Simply Soft
yarn and a 5 mm, size 'H' crochet hook.
You wanna chain a total of sixty-eight
in order to get this complete. So you'll wanna do
and so what you just have to do is just chain.
So 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 and go all the way to sixty-eight
for me and meet me back here in just a moment.
So now that you have you're chain sixty-eight you're
going to now move across your chain and do your
first one. So second chain from the hook. So just
count back so 1 and 2. Turn it over and get
the back loop only of the chain and I want you to
single crochet yourself all the way back across your chain.
For tutorial purposes my sample on screen
is gonna be a lot smaller than your sample
and because I've already done the homework
in order to get the full sample done.
So just single crochet all the way back across your
chain and meet me back here in just a moment.
So this is the end of row number one and this is so
important because you have to do so many counts.
Okay, so this is row number one when you're counting later on.
So we're gonna begin now. All the next rows will always be the same
but what we have to do is get it started first
before we can consider that. So we're gonna chain up three
which counts as a double crochet
and we're gonna double crochet into the next two
stitches that you see.
We're just establishing this pattern now so that we
can stack all the rest of this stitches on top of each
other without any issues at all.
So now you have a total of what appears to be three
which is right, skip two and go to the third and
put in five double crochet into that third one over.
This will create a shell for you.
Okay, once you shell is in then what you're just gonna do
is skip two, go to the third and then this one plus two
more will then be your three double crochets in a row again.
Okay, so it appears that you have a shell and then
three double crochets and you're gonna continue that
same idea going all the way across.
So to begin again you are just going to um, just
skip two, 1 and 2, go to the third, do a shell which
is five double crochet.
And then you're going to skip two, 1 and 2,
and the final three that you'll end up on this once
you get all the way to the other side will just be
one double crochet each. So this is considered row number two
which is so important.
So let me show you how to do row number three
which is the repeat all the way to the top
and then we're gonna, I'll meet you at the top at that point.
So turning our work and let's do row number three.
So row number three is exactly what you just did
but the only difference is, is that you're gonna work
in the middle of the these shell work, okay.
So let's chain up three, so 1, 2, 3 and where you see
double crochets in the rows below it'll be double crochet
again. So just right over top, the next stitch is a double crochet
and it's friend right next door.
So here's your shell. You're going to go to the middle
one of the shell and put in another five double crochets
in to keep those shells building on top of each other.
Okay, so once you get that done
then you just jump over and see your next group of
three double crochets right there
okay, you're just gonna put in one double crochet each.
So these shells just build on top of each other.
I know it's hard to see it in that model sample but
it's really quite beautiful and really quite easy once
you get the hang of this pattern.
Here's another shell, so continuing all the way across
you just go to the middle of that shell
and put in another five double crochets
and then continue along all the way to the other side.
And once you get there you'll notice that you'll end up
with your three double crochets that will sit by
itself so skipping all the rest of it, go to the
three double crochets and put in one double crochet each.
Just like that!
So what I want you to do is that we have to complete
so many rows. So right now we are on row number three.
You have to go all the way to row ninety-eight,
okay. So you have 1, 2, 3. Go all the way to row
number ninety-eight using this last stitch,
the one that you just did, okay, the last stitch
Instructions, go all the way to ninety-eight
and then what we're gonna do then is that we're gonna
turn our work and then we're one row number
ninety-nine, okay, I might as well do it here
so you're just gonna chain up one, row number
ninety-nine and then you're just gonna single crochet
yourself all the way across.
And this will bring balance to this panel
at the end. So you're just gonna single crochet all the way.
And what I'm gonna do then is that I'm gonna take
you then to the to the actual sample that I'm
working on and I'm gonna show you how to do the
three rounds that complete the border for this entire project.
So the very ninety-ninth one you're just going to
single crochet. Do not fasten off, just keep your
work on there and we're going to then move across
and then all the way around in three revolutions
in order to complete that beautiful shawl that you see.
Okay, so you're gonna go all the way across with single crochet.
So when I come back I'll pull back my sample that
I'm working on and we'll begin starting the border at that point.
So welcome to the border portion. I just came
across and I single crocheted like I just showed
you here on the real sample. And then what I'm
gonna do now is turn my work and we're going to begin
the first round of the border. So turn around
this. We're gonna go along the short edge first
and then we're gonna work our way down the side
like so. Do the other bottom edge and then work
our way back up into a complete revolution.
So without further ado let's begin the first round.
So let's begin our first revolution as we go all the way
around. So we're going to start up and I'm going to
get you started this side edge and them I'm gonna
jump over then to the next side
and then we're going to then move along down to
the bottom and back up the other side.
So to begin all we just need to do is that we need
to chain up one and one single crochet into the very first one.
No there's an inconsistency of numbers that exist
on these edges. So on the short edges where
the shells are facing up then there's a difference of
stitch counts and there will be at the other side
at the same time and the ones that are on side are
all consistant. Now they've done that on purpose
because of the beautiful spray work.
So here's how it works. You're going to chain two,
so 1 and 2 and you're only gonna skip one stitch the
first time and you'll see this in the written instructions
as well. And then you're gonna carry on.
So here's the repeat pattern that you have to worry
about. You're gonna chain two, so they're all gonna
have chain twos anyway. But what we're gonna do
this time is that we're gonna skip two, um, stitches
and then we're going to chain two,
skip two stitches again, 1 and 2, go to the third
okay.
And then this time we're gonna chain two
and only skip one stitch, so skip one only and go to the next.
So that's your repeat pattern going across this edge
plus the opposite side at the bottom.
So here we go again. So let's try it again.
So chain two, you're gonna skip two stitches,
1 and 2, go to the third, chain two,
skip two more stitches, 1, 2 go to the third
and single crochet and then finally chain two, skip
only one stitch and then go to the next.
I'm gonna do that one more time for you.
So that's your repeat pattern. So chain two,
skip the next two, 1 and 2,
chain two, skip the next two, and single in
and then chain two and skip only one and then
single crochet into the next.
Please do that all the way along this edge.
So as you get all the way to the other side
there should be a total of twenty-five of these
chain two spaces going all the way around
or sorry all the way across this edge.
And now we're gonna turn and go down the opposite side.
So these are down the side rows.
To begin this its all very simple. This time is 1 and 2.
So chain up two and then go into the first side
uh, post okay here on the row and single crochet
and then chain two and then go to the next one.
So just pull it up and just go into the side.
And you're gonna do that al the way across.
So chain two, and pull up the next one and just
into the side. Please do that all the way for this edge.
So as you come all the way down then you're
going across the rows on the side and now you're
back to here and you're about to come onto the
the first layer here. So chain up two first
then go to your first single crochet that is right
in the very start of your row.
So now you're gonna continue like you did before
but on this side and it's the same counts as you did
before. So it's chain up two, okay, skip one,
single crochet into the next and then chain two,
skip two so 1 and 2, go to the third
and single crochet, chain two, and then skip two,
go to the third and then the repeat pattern starts again.
So chain two, skip one, okay so it's just skip one
and like that, okay.
So let's just review that one more time. So you skipped
over two, skipped over two, skip one. So try again. So chain two,
skip two, 1 and 2, go to the third, okay, chain two,
skip two, go to the third and then finally chain two,
and skip one, go to the sorry, skip one go to the
second. So do that same thing all the way across.
there should be twenty-five of these, um, going all
the way from, uh twenty-five of these chain two
spaces. So 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and you'll have a total
of twenty-five of those. And what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave then the other side for you.
So do the same thing. So chain two after you get to
the end and then come down and do your sides
like you had already done before and I'll see you
at the end of this round. So now I'm coming all
the way back around this is where I had started
right on this corner here and I've chained two
I'm coming into the side of the last one here in
the row and to complete this round chain up two
and slip stitch to the beginning single crochet
that you'd started with. Just like that. So now we're
gonna go around again doing row number two
and now the hard works really done with all this
extra counting in order to get it to because the
counting's kind of off balance that you might
that it is. But now it becomes a lot easier from this
point forward. There's just gonna be a little bit,
a lot more work. I guess a lot more when it comes
to making those shells but that's what makes uh,
particular shell so desirable.
So let's move on to round number two of doing the border.
So in round number two of the border there's gonna
be some large shells and then there's gonna be
some spacing that's separates them and you're gonna
all the way around. Okay, so even if you hit the corner
when you're just following these chain two spaces
even if it turns a corner it doesn't matter, that's
still a chain two and you just follow it all the way around
it. It's actually really quite an easy pattern to be able
to manage. So what we're gonna do is that we're
gonna slip stitch into the first chain two space.
We're in the single crochet right now but we're gonna
slip stitch to the first chain two to put us into that
space and now we're gonna do the first
starting of the shells.
So we're gonna chain six which counts as
one double treble and chain one. So lets just do it.
So 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, that's your double treble, 6, is your chain one.
So now we're gonna double treble into this
particular um, stitch um, five more times but we're
gonna make sure that they're separated with a
chain one first, that's why you've done a double treble
plus a chain one right here.
So you gotta wrap that hook three times for a double treble
and then what we're gonna do is just go right into
that same chain two space and pull through
and then keep pulling through two, pull through two,
two and two and then what we're gonna do is
chain one and do another treble.
So there's a total count of six of these trebles or
double trebles that are inside. So wrap that hook
three times, going into the same space, pull through,
pull through two, two, two, two and then chain one
and do it again.
So wrapping three times.
So this border is gonna be really quite lush and
lovely and then chain one. Okay, so you have a
total of four double treble that you can see so far.
So let's wrap again three times and do another double treble,
chain one and do it again.
So you should be able to count a total of six of these double trebles.
So I got 1, 2 3, 4, 5, 6 and before you're
finished with this shell then what you have to do
is chain one first. So now you're gonna come back
down to earth here and come back down to the
border, skip the next chain two space and go to the
one over and single crochet into that space.
Okay, so that'll pull it around. So now we're gonna
continue along the side or sorry along the edge.
So we're gonna chain one first, you're gonna skip
the next chain two space and go to the next one after
that and you're gonna do your double trebles.
So you're gonna do a total of six of them that are
separated by those chain ones.
So there's 1 double treble, chain one
and you keep doing that. Okay so chain one after each one
when you do these double trebles. Just is easier to
remember to do it right away
and you're doing is all within that same space
and you're looking for that magic count of six
that exists so you can currently see four. So chain one
okay and do it again.
So I have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Make sure you chain one
after it. So you come back down to earth on the
border, skip the next chain one or chain two space
and go to the next one after that and single crochet in
and then chain one, skip the next chain two space
and go to the second one over and begin the double treble.
I want you to do the all the way around. It doesn't
if it even turning on a corner. It doesn't matter
You just continue to go in the same fashion and
all of your stitch counts should uh, work out as
you're going all the way around on this.
So I'll see you at the end of this round and then ah,
what we'll do is then we'll do the final border
round. Which is a little bit of work but its what gives
it the magnificent work that you see that the model is wearing.
So without further ado, let me get you to the end
of this and I'll see you at the end and we'll continue
and do that last bit together.
So 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, chain one, skip the next chain
two space, go to the second over and single crochet,
chain one and begin that all over again.
So this is what it will look like once you have it all
put together and then we're gonna come back and do
a final border. I'll see you in just a bit.
So I've now come all the way back around and I
slip stitched to the top here of the chain five.
There was chain six remember. I did to the fifth one
in order to keep the shells looking good.
So now it's the final revolution it's round number three.
So our first spot that we have to do is that we have to
slip stitch to the first chain one space.
So slip stitch over first
then chain one and then single crochet into that
same chain one space. Just like that.
So now we're gonna create a picot.
So picot is p-i-c-o-t, it called picot and you're gonna
chain three. So watch how you do it. So 1, 2 ad 3
and slip your hook into, see these two strings
right here, just slip in behind, okay, so go right
through, yarn over, pull through and through.
And that's a picot and that's gonna create this little
nubly thing that gonna be on the edge of your shells.
So immediately just to the next chain one space
and single crochet first and then another picot.
So it's chain three, 1, 2 and 3 and then slid into that
same space that I just showed you before.
And then yarning over and through.
And then go to the next chain one space
and the reason why I'm showing you all these
is that you have do something in-between.
So single crochet first and then 1, 2 and 3
and then picot it. So go into that same space,
pull through and through.
Okay, go to the next one, so single, 1, 2 and 3
and slide in, pull through and through.
And do your last one here. So this is the last
post here of this one here coming out so
do the very last one first. So single crochet
and then chaining of, of 1, 2 and 3
and then just slide in.
So that's your last picot
So now what you're gonna do now you're gonna
single crochet yourself the remaining until you get over here,
So you're gonna go into this chain one space here,
single crochet right here.
Then you're gonna go into this next one right here.
Okay, gonna go into the next one right here
and single crochet and then you're gonna go into
this next space and single crochet and that's
where your picot will start once again.
Okay, so let's just follow this up a little closer
sorry quickly so chain three, it's your picot,
and then you move to the next one.
So picots take a little bit of getting used to if you've
never done it before. So it's single crochet,
chain three and slide in,
and is does that beautiful look that you have.
So move to the next one single crochet, chain three.
and go into the next one,
and I'm showing you this twice so I could show
what happens in-between one more time.
And come to the last one here
1, 2, 3. So watch where we're gonna single crochet.
So just pull them apart them apart, okay.
So you see the space and this space
so you gotta single crochet into that space
right here.
Then go into the other side here single crochet.
So you got your second one in. The third one is
right here, okay, so it's right in that first chain one space
and you're gonna single crochet in
and you wanna make sure that you got that in
and you do your picot.
So it told you in the instructions if you're following
along. It says that your single crocheting
three in a row and then picot. So it's not empty
single crochet by itself without a picot.
It's 1, 2 the 3rd is the beginning of the, of the first
picot. So you just gotta watch for that in order to
have that make sense for you and then you just
keep moving across just like this.
So you're just gonna move all the way around
using the same technique and then when you get done
just fasten off and you're and your particular
shawl is done. So this is Mikey on behalf of
Yarnspirations.com.
I'm gonna keep working on this off camera
so that I can get it done for a photo shoot
and then I'm gonna toss it in my Yarnspirations
charity bin where my samples go in order to
donate charity.
So until next time have a great day and we'll see
you again real soon and thank you so much
for joining us today. We'll see ya. Bye, bye. 👋
