Description Inspired by frost spreading across a windowpane on a cold winter night, this shawl is worked in lighter-than-air yarn. Sparkling crystal beads complete the frosty look of this surprisingly warm ethereal wrap.

Hook E/4 (3.5 mm), 0.9 mm steel crochet hook for beading. Adjust hook size if necessary to obtain correct gauge.

Notions 549 size 8/0 round seed beads (sample shown using Miyuki Japanese seed beads, 8/0 round crystal AB, 20g per tube, 1 tube), beads must have holes large enough to accommodate steel hook; 9 distinct st markers (m1 to m9); yarn needle.

Gauge Rows 1–14 = 4” measured from center to bottom point, unblocked. Gauge is not critical for this project.
