I saved a few for future designs. :) And this shawl was named River’s Walk (with thanks to Robin Heller Barton!). If you missed the shawl’s reveal – check more pictures HERE.

I used River Washed and Stone Washed yarns by Scheepjes in the following shades (colors for green&orange sample are given in brackets): Yarn A – River Washed 950 Wheaton (or 951 Amazon) x2 skeins Yarn B – River Washed 945 Ganges (or 947 Seine) x1 skein Yarn C – Stone Washed 813 Amazonite (or River Washed 952 Rhine) x2 skeins Yarn D – River Washed 941 Colorado (or 949 Yarra) x2 skeins Yarn E – River Washed 943 Mekong (or 944 Nile) x2 skeins Yarn F – River Washed 942 Steenbras (or 948 Danube) x2 skeins River Washed and Stone Washed yarns are available in your local Scheepjes shops, Caro's Atelier* (NL) and via large international retailers: Wool Warehouse* and Black Sheep Wools* (both in UK with international shipping), Knotty House* (Canada). And Poppy's of Holmfirth (UK) has ready yarn packs in both colorways (check them HERE and HERE). Measurements: your shawl’s size will depend on yarn and hook you choose. My shawl is approx. 162cm/63.8in wide and 80cm/31.5in high when blocked. Gauge: after 17 rows triangle is approx. 10cm/4in high Pattern Notes: River’s Walk Shawl consists of the body and several Geometric Panels. Ch1 in the beginning of each row doesn’t count as a st. So first sc of each row is made in last stitch of previous row. Cut yarn in the end of the rows only if there are bigger floats of yarn appear on the edge. Otherwise carry yarn from one row to next without cutting (within one geometric panel, for example). When changing yarn in the end of the row, make the last stitch with new color (insert hook from back to front). That will make small floats on the WS but RS will look neater. Yarn is changed after every 2 rows - for Geometric Panels INSTRUCTIONS Copyright LillaBjornCrochet 2018. All rights reserved. This pattern is for unlimited personal use only.
