Foxtrot is a crochet shawl that features a bold diamond pattern and is worked from the top center back to the edges. It is a generous half-circle created by four increase lines which divide the shawl into five segments.

The main stitch pattern uses only two of the most basic crochet stitches: double crochet and chains. You will alternate two colors at a time, but use only one color in each row.

The pattern also includes empty grid layouts to colorize. Choose your beloved colors and use these blank templates as your sketchpad to create your own unique design!
