Dare To Be Seen is a classic triangular shawl for the modern woman who is daring and adventurous, but still feminine and elegant. She appreciates her individuality and finds new perspectives in proven values.

Pattern is written in three sizes – Small, Medium and Large.

Shawl is worked from the top down, increasing at the center and on both sides of each row, creating a symmetrical triangular shape.

Simple repeat of double crochet rows and shell rows build the bigger part of the shawl, changing to shorter intervals of shells in the lower part of the shawl to transition into a striking textured 3-dimensional border. Double crochet in the back loops only, worked after the shells give additional texture to the fabric. The ratio of increases in the border section extends the edges, giving the top of the shawl a little crescent curve.

Most part of the shawl is worked in dc stitches only (switching from even dc to shells) to create a fabric with substance, yet excellent drape, allowing the luxurious fibers to shine. The resulting fine fabric is equally suitable for the summer and for the transitional seasons. Biggest part of the work is aimed to be easy and relaxing and finish with a little twist and unusual placement of the stitches, still using basic stitches only.
