Vintage Vibes Shawl

A pretty and versatile shawl that also whips up very quickly from a simple 8 row repeat. The filet work is yarn sparing, so a good sized shawl can be made from one graduated colour change yarn cake. Perfect for all seasons: make with cotton or cotton blends of a lighter ply for Summer evening wear, and Spring and Autumn day wear; or make it with acrylic or wool for Winter wear. A crochet tie can be made to weave through the filet work to draw the shawl in under the bust or around the waist. If making in 8 or 10 ply yarn, be sure to make a cute matching Vintage Vibes Beanie.

Synopsis:

• Shawl with filet work.
• Worked top down, in a triangle v-shape construction, alternating right and wrong side each subsequent row.
• Stitches are beginner worthy DC, Ch and Sl St.
• Increases occur in the ends of the shawl (left and right top corners of the triangle) and the middle of the shawl (bottom corner of triangle) . (Note: the stitch increase made in Diamond Flower Row 1 is not maintained in subsequent rows, so is not considered a true increase.)
• Each round commences at the flat top of the shawl's triangle, at one end/tip/corner (alternating left and right each round).

Tips:

• For best effect, use a yarn that has a good drape/ molds well to the body shape and is soft/ comfortable to wear, but not overly fluffy.
• Use recommended hook size range as a guide only. My tension is reasonably loose, and I have a 'Rider' Golden Loop style. To achieve a nice drape, you may need to go up half to a whole size from your regular hook for the ply being used.
• To size to individual preference:
  • Work rows 1-9.
  • Measure (L)ength from the start of Row 2 to the end of Row 9.
  • Measure (W)idth from the start of Row 1 to end of Row 8.
  • To determine the number of 8 row repeats required for a shawl of a Preferred Finished Length (PFL), use the following calculation (with the same units for numerator and denominator): PFL/L. Round up or down (to a whole number). Note: if you want to be more accurate, also consider length of row 1 plus 1 row border.
  • To determine the number of 8 row repeats required for a shawl of a Preferred Finished Width (PFW), use the following calculation (with the same units for numerator and denominator): PFW/W. Round up or down (to a whole number). Note: if you want to be more accurate, also consider length of row 1 plus 1 row border.
• When constructing corner stitches in a middle corner Ch 1 Sp, after making the last corner DC ensure the next previous row DC stitch is exposed by pulling the corner stitches sideways, away from this stitch. Stitching in the next DC stitch is critical to maintain the correct stitch count for subsequent rows.
• When constructing the diamond flower rows 2 and 3, ensure that the motif stitches are worked into the previous row stitches (rather than over the stitches).
• Depending on individual tensioning/ thickness of yarn, when constructing the middle corner of the shawl (at the bottom tip of the V), Ch 2 may be substituted for the pattern Ch 1. This may be necessary to maintain the diamond shape of the corner.
• The beginning DCStndSt/Ch 3 are included in the 'DC' stitch count.
• If commencing with Ch 3 rather than DCStndSt, then Sl St across to the first Ch 1 Sp to begin.
• If commencing with the DCStndSt, there is no need to Sl St; instead DCStndSt straight into the Ch 1 Sp.
• Instructions are written with reference to Right Side (RS) and Wrong Side (WS). However, this is purely for keeping track of rows, particularly if colour changes are being worked. Wear shawl on either side (depending on your preference).

Abbreviations:

• Cnr = Corner
• DCStndSt = DC Standing Stitch (refer to Special Stitch Instructions), which can be used in the place of Ch 3, when beginning each row.
  DCStndSt[1]:
  1. SC over the magic circle or Ch 1 Sp Cnr (whichever is applicable), without first making a Ch 1.
  2. Ch 1 and then SC in the front loop only of the SC made in Step 1.
• VStPct = V-Stitch with Picot (used only for optional Border — refer to Special Stitch Instructions.)
  VStPct:
  1. In the first Ch 1 Sp Cnr in the row: DCStndSt, DC, Ch 4 and then Sl St into front loop only of the last DC constructed (in the same row — which forms the picot), and then 2 DC.
  2. In the remaining Ch 1 Sp in the row: 2 DC, Ch 4 and then Sl St into the front loop of the last DC constructed (in the same row — which forms the picot), and then 2 DC.
• RS = Right Side
• WS = Wrong Side

Appendices:

1. An explanation of the 'Repeat *Stitches*...' instruction are provided in Appendix 1.
2. Photo images for construction of the more complex parts of the pattern is provided in Appendix 2. A chart is available in the PDF that can be downloaded from Ravelry.
3. When your shawl is the preferred size, add a border of your choice. It is recommended that an additional alternating DC — Ch 1 Sp filet row is first made. The example shawls have two different border options. The instructions for these are provided in Appendix 3.

Subsequent 8 Row Repeats
So far, 3 repeats in total will have been constructed. To construct additional repeats, please refer to both A) the Repeats Table (on this page) and B) the Repeats Generic Written Instructions (on the following page).

• The first column represents the pattern repeat number. There is one table row to follow per pattern repeat. Make as many repeats as required to achieve the preferred shawl size.
• There are eight pattern rows to construct for each pattern repeat and these are represented in table columns 2 to 9 (Rows 1 to 8). The row type is also provided in each column header (i.e. Filet, Solid, Diamond Flower Row 1 (DF 1), Diamond Flower Row 2 (DF 2), or Diamond Flower Row 3 (DF 3)).
• Each table cell contains the details for a specific row within a specific repeat. For example, the first cell provides the information for pattern Row 1 of Repeat 4. The following information is provided for each row within a repeat: Row number (R); repeat *stitches* number (n (refer to Written Instructions)); DC only stitch count (S); and, number of motifs (M (where applicable to the row)).
• Use this table in conjunction with the written instructions. Substitute ‘Repeat *Stitches* n times’ within the pattern written instructions with the number provided for ‘n’ in the Repeats Table (specific to the pattern row being worked).
