Free Whitney Shawl crochet pattern – Familiar But New!

Whitney Shawl free crochet pattern by DivineDebris.com

Happy new pattern Tuesday friends! Who’s excited for a new addition to the Whitney Line? Like I said last week when I released the Whitney Cowl, that this week you’d get a brand new Whitney design – the Whitney Shawl crochet pattern!

Like the other Whitney patterns, this design features a really easy to make pattern – a linen stitch and puff stitch combo! But in the easy is the real fun, because it’s got all that gorgeous texture but none of the headache of harder patterns. Does that make sense? I mean, I love a good expert level design but sometimes you just want something you can work on while you re-watch the Great British Bake Off for the 12th time. Ya know?

So, anyway… this design is super easy but gorgeous! And you can make it in a variegated yarn, like I did or in one solid color and it’ll still look fab. Speaking of the yarn I made it with. I used Chroma Worsted from WeCrochet for this yarn and I LOVE how it worked up. Can you see those colors? Too gorgeous and I don’t even know if these photos do the yarn justice. I highly suggest checking out the Chroma but if you want to go stash busting for this design, I bet that would be amazing too!

Back to the pattern. It’s a simple repeat that, if you’d like, you can make much bigger – go for a whole Stevie Nicks thing if you want or keep it short-ish like I made it and have it double as a fantastic scarf. Your call!

Well, I sure hope you like this week’s new Whitney Shawl crochet pattern and give it a try. I’m so happy with how it worked up and how easy it is to make.
Have a good week everyone!
