TENSION (GAUGE)21 stitches and 8 rows to 10 cm (4 in) measured over pattern using 4.00mm (UK 8 – US G6) crochet hook, or size required to give correct tension.

It is vitally important to check your tension (gauge) before starting as working to the wrong tension (gauge) will mean your item will not be the size shown and could result in yarn being left over, or more yarn being required. Before beginning, crochet a tension (gauge) swatch at least 12 cm, 5 in, square and measure your tension (gauge). If there are more sts and rows than stated, try again using a thicker hook. If there are fewer sts and rows than stated, try again using a thinner hook.

At the end of each row there is an end st (see abbreviations) to form a triangle. At centre of each row there is a corner st (see abbreviations) to turn corner and form shape of shawl. Rest of patt is made up of blocks. Each block has a tr (dc) at each side of it and 2 sts between these 2 tr (dc). For an open block, there are “2 ch, miss 2 sts” between these tr (dc).
