This is a FREE crochet pattern for a simple shawl that is quick to complete. It is also an easy pattern with super low count and so perfect if you are looking for a very little counting project. For beginners, this is definitely doable too.

The yarn

These yarns are milk cotton yarn which can be easily found on AliExpress, Amazon, Temu, … am sure also in Belgium and the Netherlands. Just don’t know what they call these yarns. Take a look at the picture below:

This is the yarn I used. It is 100gram per ball and about 193meter. Here is a link to that yarn on Ali: 1 Stuk 100G Cakegaren Regenboog Katoenen Garen Segment Verven 5 Strengen Van Melk Katoenen Garen Diy Hand Gebreid – AliExpress 15

1. Crochet hook: 3.5mm

3. Stitch marker
4. Tapestry needle
5. Scissors

Gauge: 4 stitches x 4 rows per 2.5×2.5cm/1inch

Should you want to use different yarn but still want the scarf to be the same size as mine, be sure to make a test piece to test if your yarn is the right gauge.
