    Crochet Triangle Shawl in Mandala Yarn

    Date: November 25, 2022 by Kim Guzman • This post may contain affiliate links. See Privacy Policy below.

    This Crochet Triangle Shawl is made in Lion Brand Mandala Yarn in the popular colorway of Warlock. The gemstone colors make a beautiful shawl in an all-over lace repeat.

    The delicate lace gives the look of little filled circles. You’ll be pleasantly surprised when you see how easy it is to achieve. It’s a nice change of pace from the rigid sections you usually see in triangle shawls.

    My Crochet Pattern Notes

    This shawl is worked from the center top and out toward the point at the bottom. Because it starts at the center, you can use the pattern to make any size shawl, simply by working to the width and length you desire.

    Although the stitches used in this pattern are easy, the increasing along the edges will require a little more attention and being able to “read” your stitches.

    The yarn is intended to simply change colors where it will. You don’t need to cut off at the end of a row and add the new color. As you can see at around the center of the shawl, there is random color changing. This adds to the beauty of the project.

    If you want to cut off the colors, it will leave a lot of excess yarn. But, that excess yarn could be made into your tassels, if you like.

    Other Materials

    Suggested Crochet Hook Size H-8 (5mm) or hook needed to meet gauge.
    Stitch Marker or small piece of contrasting yarn.
    Yarn Needle for weaving ends.

    Gauge

    This design is made for any weight yarn so gauge (tension) isn’t as important as it is to make the fabric you like. You want it to be flexible enough to drape across the shoulders easily, while still holding together the look of the lace.

    Using different weights of yarns will require different yardages. To get closest to the shawl shown, after row 7, the top of the shawl measures about 10″ and the depth/height is about 4″.
