Where does the name Eastvale Shawl come from? Like many of my crochet shawls, it’s named for a fictional location found in a mystery series. In this case, Eastvale is the stomping grounds of DCI Alan Banks, the brainchild of author Peter Robinson.
The Yarn
Make the Eastvale Shawl your own with boundless combinations of solid and tonal sport weight yarns.
The yarn used in the sample shown is Stunning String Super Sport (100% superwash merino, 3.5 oz [100 g], 325 yd [297 m]), 2 skeins of color Coffee Beans (Main Color) and 1 skein of color Fireball (Contrasting Color).
You can purchase a yarn kit for this project from Stunning String, using your choice of yarn colors to make it your own.
The Pattern
The pdf pattern includes instructions as both text and a chart. It is written using American crochet terminology. Once you grasp the pattern stitch, it’s easy to follow without referring to the instructions.
The pattern has been professionally tech-edited and has been crocheted by several testers. A video tutorial on How to Crochet One-Row Stripes even helps you create those accent stripes without cutting the yarn!
The pattern is available as a download on this website (through Payhip.com), on Ravelry and on LoveCrafts.
