Thank you for your interest in my first shawl pattern!
An overlay mosaic crochet pattern in ENGLISH ONLY.

To help you along there’s a video for starting the shawl and optional hood separate PDF.
The whole pattern is written out so there’s no repeating except for the last 2 patterns, I have created extra sections of the repeating pattern so if you’re using thinner yarn or you find the shawl too small you can add the extra sections.

There are video links below to get you started with the shawl, I also have a video to start the hood in a separate PDF , please check your library.

I used Yarnsmiths Pebble Haze DK Prints 150g in Penmouth 2D340 for my background colour, 3 cakes, total used 414g/1,200m. for the detailed colour I used Yarnsmiths Pebble Haze DK 50g 7 skeins of Mudstone 2C084, 922m/318g. Total used 2,122m/732g.
