Notes from the Designer:

My simple indulgences include my favorite desserts, summer fruits, cozy shawls, and fun shapes. This pattern has them all. This shawl is a popular crescent shape that’s modified slightly to feature a cascade of yummy strawberries in the color of pistachio mint ice cream. The body of the shawl is worked from side to side in a crescent shape, and the border of shells and strawberries is worked into its curved side, making it a fun and easy project to crochet.

  • Ch 3 at beginning of each row counts as dc unless otherwise noted.
  • Mark the RS with a stitch marker to make it easier to see what side you’re working on.
