Materials:
8mm crochet hook
2 x 100g in contrasting colours of Right Side Yarns DK Wool (100% Polwarth Superwash, approx. 230m / 251yds), shades “Be Mine” (Colour A, pink) and “ Garden Stroll” (Colour B, Green)

Finished Size:
Approximately 130cm along curving inner edge x 45cm at widest point after blocking.

Crochet Tension / gauge:
Tension is not critical at all for this project, but it is not recommended to crochet the shawl too tight, it will affect the shape of the waves and its overall drape. As a guide, each “bud” is approximately 4cm wide, and each 2-row stripe is around 4cm high before blocking.
