Crochet Chevron Shawl, Lightweight Crochet Shawl, Zigzag Crochet Wrap
About
I am so delighted to release this free pattern which is super easy and elegant. I shared few sneak peeks on my stories and few posts in the past month or so. My family went on a 6hour drive one way for a weekend and I was able to start and finish it on my way back.

INSPIRATION
My favourite thing about this wrap is the complementary colours that fall within the mixed neutral colours in my book and can be dressed down or up. I picture myself bringing it with me to a dinner date for a chilly night on a stroll on the downtown streets of wear it as a scarf on a day out with the girls.
YARN
This one is mindless after the second row, which means therapeutic but the impact is immense. This beauty is stylish and versatile. I love the ripples and the little puckers that create eyelets for summery and lightweight feel, hence the name “Ripples Wrap” I used Hobbii yarn called Friends and it has so many options to choose from.It is a sport weight yarn 100% Merino wool. The wrap is lightweight, the drape from yarn is dreamy and so squishy, so you will feel like you are hugged. Even though it is Merino wool, it does not feel heavy or warm,
This wrap gives an opportunity of endless colour combos or one color if you want to go with a solid option. This would make an amazing birthday or Christmas gift for a special person. I am so thrilled to see all the colour combos you all come up with for this project. You really cannot go wrong with any colour of your choosing, be it pastels or bright colours. I bet rainbow wrap would look amazing!
I think these Yarns would be great substitute for this pattern
