New Pattern! Granny at a Rave is a super fun and beginner friendly shawlette pattern that can work with just about any yarn you want!

This is one of those suprise designs that wasn’t on my radar until the pattern was practically already written. I had a student come in one day wanting to make a granny square shawl and on my way out the door after class, I picked up a skein of yarn from a local indie dyer to make one myself because we more or less wrote the pattern in class! I ordered a coordinating set of minis two days later to add some extra fun to the party and the rest is history!

Worked in a mitered square manner, this triangular variation on the granny square works up quickly and almost effortlessly. You could easily add a second or third skein for a larger piece or you could simply keep adding stripes with the minis!

STITCHES & TECHNIQUES:

Double Crochet (granny square)
Single Crochet (linen stitch)
Extended Single Crochet (instructions in pattern)
Color Changes (stripes)

GAUGE:

Before blocking, within the body of the shawl, 33 sts and 17 rows of granny square stitches = approximately 4 inches. I aggressively wet blocked the long edge of the shawl to get it nice and straight so finished measurements were 42.5 by 17 inches.
