Hi everyone! Thanks for checking out the free crochet pattern for the Cluster Stitch Triangle Shawl. Scroll down for the free pattern and design notes!
A few months ago, Joann Fabrics had an AWESOME yarn sale – buy two get one free for Lion Brand (and a bunch of other lovely yarn brands). So obviously I HAD to buy 6 skeins of LBY Heartland in Mount Rainier.
Heartland is SO SOFT and cuddly. It’s a medium weight acrylic yarn (that can be machine washed AND dried) with colorways inspired by American landscapes. And the colorway I picked, Mount Rainier, is a beautiful silver heather. I originally intended to make a sweater with this yarn, but I was preoccupied with other projects and the weather started to warm up. So I decided to make a sweet spring shawl instead ๐ (say that 10 times fast!)
Scroll down for the free pattern!
Materials Needed:
- Size US I โ 5.5mm crochet hook (I useย theseย from Amazon โ theyโre amazing!)
- 3 (5 oz/251 yd) skeins ofย Lion Brand Yarn Heartland in color of your choice. I used Mount Rainier!
- Scissors
- Tapestry Needle
Gauge & Measurements:
- 4โณ x 4โณ: 8 sts x 7 rows
- Finished Size: width 62″, height 30.5″
Abbreviations (US):
- ch = chain
- cluster = cluster stitch made up of two double crochets
- st(s) = stitch(es)
Stitches Used:
- Cluster Stitch (if you donโt know how to do this stitch, check out my tutorial here!)
Pattern:
Note: The turning chain is not counted as a stitch in this pattern.
Chain 4.
Row 1: Cluster in 3rd ch from hook, ch 3, cluster in last ch of row. Ch 2, turn.
Row 2: In 1st st, make 2 cluster sts. In ch 3 space, 2 clusters, ch 3, 2 clusters. 2 clusters in last st of row. Ch 2, turn.
Row 3: In 1st st, 2 clusters. Cluster in each st until ch 3 space. In ch 3 space, cluster, ch 3, cluster. Cluster in each st until last st of row. In last st, 2 clusters. Ch 2, turn.
Repeat row 3 for 35 more rows, ending with a grand total of 38 rows. Each row will increase by 4 stitches.
If you want to make your shawl bigger, repeat row 3 until you are happy with the length/height. You will need 4 skeins of yarn if making a longer shawl.
Finishing:
I added tassels to the points of my shawl, but this is totally optional! I think tassels add a bit more character to everything. ๐
I would also advise using a handheld steamer or blocking your shawl when complete. Blocking helps your edges stay straighter and improves the drape of the shawl. Also, steaming your tassels makes them lay flatter and look less ramen-noodly.
