Hi Everyone!π
Today I would like to share the Rainforest Shawl crochet pattern with you. This elegant lightweight triangle shawl is worked from the top down, in back and forth rows. To make this shawl, you should be familiar with basic crochet stitches and terminology. All you need to start is one skein of your favourite fingering weight yarn (I used one skein of YarnArt Flowers gradient ''cake'' yarn) and a 4 mm crochet hook.
If you prefer to learn by watching, I have a video tutorial below. Or scroll down to view the written pattern!
