This curved, asymmetric triangle Tunisian crochet shawl was originally published in Inside Crochet magazine.

I designed it to show off colour-changing or variegated yarn - just perfect to use up the colourful yarn in your stash!

My colour choices are inspired by the colours of a city twilight when the sun begins to set and the bright city lights begin to sparkle. But you can choose your own!

You can see a video of the shawl in two sizes here.

  • You can adjust the size to make it bigger or smaller as desired - just continue or stop in the pattern! (The blue/black shawlette in the photos is a smaller size.)

  • Beads on the lower and bind-off edges add sparkle and elegance.

  • Reversible, flat fabric with plenty of drape: WS resembles knitted garter stitch.

  • The lower edge has a decorative braided finish.

Difficulty: Easy (basic Tunisian stitches)
