Abbreviations:

Ch – chain

Dc – double crochet

St, sts – stitch, stitches

Sp – space

Notes:

  1. Make the starting chain at the beginning of each row loosely so it’s easier to stitch into when you come back around in the next row. 
  2. I recommend placing a stitch marker at the top of the chain 3 stitch at the beginning of each row so you know where to place your last stitch in the following row.
  3. Beginning chains count as double crochet stitches throughout.
  4. I use a magic circle to begin the shawl.  There are tons of tutorials online for it.  If you prefer, you can chain 4 and slip stitch to join the ends and create a circle.  Then just work row 1 into the circle.  Be aware that you will have a hole right at the top with this method.

Instructions:

With Stonewash, make a magic circle.

Row 1:  Ch 3, 2 dc in circle, ch 2, 3 dc.  Tighten circle.

Row 2:  Turn, ch 3, 2 dc in first st, ch 1, (3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in middle ch 2 sp, ch 1, 3 dc in last st – which is the top of the ch 3 from the previous row. 

Row 3:  Turn, ch 3, 2 dc in first st, ch 1, 3 dc in next ch 1 sp, ch 1, (3dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in next ch 2 sp at top of row, ch 1, 3 dc in next ch 1 sp, ch 1, 3 dc in last st.
