Savannah Summer Shawl is a breezy, beginner-friendly filet crochet triangle shawl worked in open mesh from the bottom point outward, building to a graceful wingspan that drapes beautifully from either side.

Construction and Technique

  • Filet crochet construction: the fabric is built from a regular grid of double crochet stitches and chain-2 spaces, producing an airy, open mesh with elegant negative space
  • Bottom-up triangle: begins at the lower vertex with a small foundation and increases steadily to the full wingspan
  • Fully reversible fabric means both sides of the shawl are equally wearable, a natural result of the symmetric filet grid
  • Worked flat throughout with no joining or seaming required
  • Straightforward, repetitive increases make this an approachable first shawl for makers comfortable with double crochet

Materials

  • Yarn: Worsted weight / CYC size 4 (suggested: Malabrigo Rios, Montana Crochet Merino Worsted, LolaBean Garbanzo Bean)
  • Yardage: 525-550 yards (480-503 m)
  • Hook: US J-10 / 6 mm
  • Gauge: 15 sts x 15 rows = 4 in / 10 cm in filet mesh; always follow pattern gauge
  • Tapestry needle for weaving ends

Whether you reach for it as a lightweight layer on a warm evening or a go-to gift knit for someone who loves an open, drapey wrap, the Savannah Summer Shawl delivers a satisfying, meditative make with a result that looks far more intricate than the stitch repeat behind it.
