Fluffy Puffy Shawl


My Auntie Christine got me three different kinds of yarn for my birthday. I made a shawl with this one, it was difficult to crochet with the size hook they suggested, but switching to a much larger hook solved the problem. I crochet three rows of single crochet then three rows of double crochet skipping every other stitch to give an open look (remembering to chain in place of the skipped stitch). To make the shape of a triangular shawl I decreased at the beginning of every row. I kept crocheting until the two balls I had were finished. My plan was to make myself a pretty shawl for the summer nights that get chilly here living near the water.
