Midnight Snow Shawl

This triangle-shaped Midnight Snow Shawl, with beautifully-detailed snowflakes, is worked in interlocking filet crochet from the bottom up and can be made with or without the optional lace border. The gradient blue background incorporates alternating 3-dc solid stitch groups to give the added effect of a sparkling night sky. 

The width of the shawl increases by six mesh stitches (three on each side) every two main color and contrasting color rows. If you prefer to use a different yarn or to make a smaller shawl, you can skip to the finishing and optional lace border instructions, once you’ve achieved the desired size, to complete the shawl.

This pattern provides both row-by-row written instructions as well as a design chart for reference. A tutorial is also provided to explain adding mesh stitches on an angle.

Since this design has many diagonal stitches, it is recommended for someone who is comfortable with the interlocking filet mesh technique. If you haven’t tried interlocking filet crochet with diagonals yet, you can learn this technique on my YouTube Channel! You can also read about it on my blog!
