Vintage Lines

Crochet Pattern by Another Mum Fights the Dust

The Vintage Lines Shawl is a beautiful crochet triangle shawl pattern that can easily be customized for any season.  Make it with a light-weight cotton for a cool summer shawl or use a warm wool-blend yarn for a winter scarf.  The options are endless! 

For this shawl pattern I used Paintbox Yarns Simply DK yarn in the Stormy Grey and Washed Teal colorways.  This yarn is perfect for cool spring days to give you a little bit of warmth.  It is super soft and easy to work with, and it comes in a variety of colors to choose from. 

The pattern gives instructions for the color changes as pictured, but feel free to get creative and change colors wherever you want.

The stitch repeats in this pattern give the shawl a beautiful texture that is sure to get you compliments wherever you go!  If you love the texture of this shawl, you will also love the Vintage Lines Cowl pattern available for free on Another Mum Fights the Dust Blog.

I hope you enjoy this pattern!

Happy Crocheting!
