About the pattern
This shawl is a mix of simple stitches and filet crochet work which keeps the project interesting. It’s worked bottom-up with mesh stitches (double crochet stitches and chains) as a basis and we’ll use a graph to ‘paint’ a flower design. The design features a big rose in the center which is made by replacing chains with double crochet stitches. My mom painted the flower motifs for me and I turned it into a filet crochet pattern. 💗
If you’ve never tried filet crochet before, don’t worry, you can find my step by step video tutorial below.
About the yarn
For this shawl I’ve used very special yarn: My Merino by Master Knit in the most beautiful pink I’ve ever seen. It’s super super soft; you can really feel the high quality of this luxury yarn. I got this yarn from my friends at @knitcrochetstores when I met them at Vogue Knitting Live in New York.
I immediately knew I wanted to make a shawl, it just took me forever to come up with fun, simple and elegant design that can be made with just 2 skeins.

Tassels
Tassels add a final touch. It’s very easy to make them using a Clover tassel maker.
1. Wound yarn around the tassel maker 55 times. Cut two more strands which are about 40 cm / 16″.
2. Add a knotted cord on top
3. Cut the yarn on the bottom (opposite of your knot)
4. Knot a strand around the tassel, about 1 cm from the top knot
5. Trim the bottom

Wilma, I love the latest shawl, so lacy and delicate! I love your creativity and style! I love the name too! We just got a new puppy , a miniature schnauzer and named her, Bella Rose!
Omigosh, Wilma!! I just bought the most beautiful pinkish/rose colored yarn from Hobbii to make a shawl for my mother. I’ve been looking for the perfect pattern to go with that yarn, and you just placed it in my inbox. Even better? My mother’s name is Rose. Thank you SO much.

One more beauty! I admire your creativity. Would you mind sharing designs of rectangular shawls also? Thanks in advance.
There is no purchase availability on either site.
Wilma,
I love this new pattern, the Bella Rosa shawl. I would like to purchase the add free version but I am unable to find it in either Ravelry or Etsy. The link above for Ravelry takes me to a completely different pattern and a search on Ravelry does not show the Bella Rosa pattern.
Hope you can help!!
