When I started working on this crochet lace shawl pattern, I wanted to create an asymmetrical lace triangle shawl pattern. I like the look of the shawl being narrow on one side, and wider on the other.

To create an asymmetric triangle shawl, the crochet shawl starts at one end and is worked in rows from side to side.

While increasing each row on one side of the shawl, you are decreasing 4 stitches every 6 rows on the other side creating “steps”- like rows and a subtle increase for the triangle.

About the Flowers for Simone Shawl

As I mentioned before, I made this lacy crochet shawl from a beautiful yarn cake I got from a dear friend named Simone. So all you need for this shawl is one Fingering (#1) weight yarn cake for this one skein lace shawl crochet pattern.

I wanted this design to be special and decided to use the beautiful Flower Lace Stitch to create a romantic shawl crochet pattern.

Combining the Lacy flower crochet stitch with the beautiful gradient yarn, creating a stunning lightweight crochet shawl, that is also perfect for summer!

What Weight Yarn Should I Use For a Shawl?

This question depends on the pattern you are using.

While making a lightweight crochet shawl, you would want to use either Lace (#0), Fingering (#1) or Sport (#2) weight yarns, to keep the beautiful lacy texture.

If you want to make a warm crochet shawl, then use a thicker yarn. This way your shawl would also work up faster.
