About the pattern
After the success of my ‘Tulips from Holland‘ square, I decided to turn this popular stitch pattern into a triangle shawl. I’ve used a bottom-up structure as many people find this easier than top-down.
The pattern is a simple repeat of 3 rows: 1 row double crochet stitches, 1 row v-stitches and 1 row puff stitches. You can make the shawl as big as you want by simply repeating these 3 rows as many times as needed.
Optionally you can add tassels to both ends of the shawl for a finishing touch.
About the yarn
For this shawl I’ve used Lionbrand Truboo Sparkle. It’s a thin ply of polyester twisted together with bamboo strands and is available in 9 colors. Truboo Sparkle also has a beautiful shimmery sparkle which is very subtle noticeable. I only needed 3 skeins of Truboo Sparkle to make this shawl.

Tassels
Tassels add a final touch. It’s very easy to make them using a Clover tassel maker. You can also use a book or phone.
1. Wound yarn around the tassel maker 40 times. Cut two more strands which are 3 times the length of your tassel.
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
