The Poet Shawl

Unleash your creativity and inspire your inner poet or artist with this romantic triangular shawl pattern, designed to be worked from the top down and finished with a beautiful crochet bind-off. This lightweight shawl is generously sized, making it a perfect accessory for any season. With an easy-to-remember pattern, you’ll find joy in creating a piece that will elevate your wardrobe.

The delightful border of this shawl is inspired by a vintage edging pattern, adding a touch of nostalgia and elegance. You have the flexibility to create this stunning shawl in a variety of ways: use two contrasting colors as shown, work it entirely in a single shade, or start with one color for the main body and switch to a second color for the border. We’ve provided approximate yarn requirements for both color options, allowing you to tailor your shawl to your personal style.

While the gauge is not critical for this pattern, please note that the yarn weight and needle size will impact the finished measurements, so choose your materials wisely to achieve your desired outcome. Please also keep in mind that the Happy Hands Hand Dyed SW Merino/Tencel yarn has been discontinued; however, you can select a yarn that is compatible with the recommended main yarn to achieve similar drape and texture.

This pattern is not only a joy to work on but also serves a greater purpose. As part of my Patterns for Hope initiative, proceeds from the sale of this shawl pattern will be donated to Heifer International and Habitat for Humanity, helping to create a positive impact in communities around the world.
