A triangular shaped scarf which I have found to be very versatile. You can wear it was a scarf around your neck or as a shawl.

The design came about as a way to make a shawl that starts from one stitch and gradually increases in stitches with every row until you decide to stop, or when you have run out of yarn. Great if you need to use up a couple of balls of yarn from your stash. It has a simple all-over lace stitch design with an option of adding some glass beads or crystals. So, if you don’t want to add beads you will not need the crochet hook.

The other good thing about this pattern is you can use any yarn you like, just use the correct needles for the yarn.
