SKY UNFOLDING

Thank you so much for stopping by :-)

Let your creativity unfold with SKY UNFOLDING — a semi-circular crochet shawl worked top-down in soft, flowing motifs. The stitches create an airy, textured look, yet use only familiar techniques, making this pattern both approachable and satisfying.

Perfect in wool for crisp stitch definition, acrylic for a wave-like texture, or cotton for a light summer drape — the design adapts beautifully to your yarn choice.

Pattern includes:
• 2 sizes: Small (worsted weight) & Large (light/fingering weight)
• Clear, row-by-row written instructions
• Optional picot edging
• Photo guides for stitch placement & gauge

Skill level: Advanced beginner – Intermediate

Yarn Ideas:
• Small: 2 skeins of Kauni effectyarn
• Large: a little more than 1 shamrock cotton cake,
• Large: 1 skein of Hobbii Twister

Hooks:
5 + 5.5 mm hooks (US: H-8 + I-9)
Or any hook to get approx gauge.

Finished size after blocking:
• Small: 155 × 57 cm / 61” × 22.4”
• Large: 162 × 62 cm / 63.8” × 25.2”
Large: 1 skein of Hobbii Twister (≈ 1000 m / 250 g). Using thinner yarns will result in a smaller shawl.
