Borlotto Shawl
"This is an adult sized crochet shawl. It's worked in one piece in the triangle shape and uses repeating pattern rows to give a great texture a simple way. This is a great project for a newish crocheter looking to expand their knowledge slightly. It uses only 3 stitches to achieve a great look. This is designed to use 2 balls of yarn, but the same effect of stripes could be made using cake yarn too. With the 2 balls of yarn listed this shawl measures 42 cm x 111 cm, but could easily be made bigger or smaller. This is an easy to intermediate crochet pattern, the techniques you will need to know are (US terms) Double crochet, skipping stitches, chain stitches, and the mini bean stitch (Fully explained)."
