This Tunisian crochet Lightning Shawl is a very fun and easy pattern mostly made with the Tunisian crochet full stitch.

Despite the appearance, this shawl does not have a single decrease or increase to make in a classical way.
Instead, the forward pass of this shawl is always a basic row made in Tunisian crochet full stitch.
The thing that changes is the return pass, which is either done the classical way or by directly yarning over and pulling through two. But everything is explained in the pattern with clear pictures.

MATERIALS
– Fingering Weight (1 Super Fine, 20 wpi) Yarn
– 6.0-mm (10/J USA, 4 UK) Tunisian Crochet Hook with a Cord Extension of 24” (60 cm) or Longer

YARDAGE
984-1093 yds (900-1000 m)

YARN OPTIONS
Feel free to use Sport or DK (3, Light) Yarn.
If you’re using Sport-weight yarn, I suggest you use a 6.5-mm crochet hook.
If you’re using DK yarn, I suggest you use a 7.0-mm (2 UK) Tunisian crochet hook with a Cord Extension of at least 24” (60 cm).
Also, make sure to go up in hook size for the border!
