The “Purple” shawl in various shades of violet can be worn in many different ways thanks to its size, but it can also easily be made smaller.

Using the material specified in the pattern, the “Purple2 shawl will be 1.80 m wide. I personally chose a cake yarn made from a cotton/polyacrylic blend: pleasant to work with and comfortable to wear.

The pattern includes a knitting chart. Basic knitting knowledge (knit and purl stitches, yarn overs, etc.) is required.
The following materials are needed to make it:
  • Cake yarn, 1000 m yardage, 3-ply, in a white/violet gradient (50% cotton, 50% polyacrylic)
  • Knitting needle no. 3
  • Needle for weaving in ends
  • Scissors
Here is the pattern:

The “Cappuccino” scarf, with its delicate lace pattern, features a color gradient from a soft beige to a rich brown—but it also makes a stylish companion in another color combination.

Using the specified material, the “Cappuccino” scarf will be 1.80 m long, but it can also be made longer by continuing to repeat the pattern repeat. The yardage of the Bobbel should then, of course, be adjusted accordingly.

The pattern includes a knitting chart. Basic knitting skills (knit and purl stitches, yarn overs, etc.) are required.

You will need the following materials to make it:
one gradient or solid-color Bobbel, 3-ply, 1000 m yardage (material: 50% cotton, 50% polyacrylic)
knitting needle size 3
scissors
needle for weaving in the ends

I used the color Kiwi Drizzle; for my jacket in size 36/38, I used two Whirls, and the yarn was held double so that the jacket would be nice and cozy.

This scarf pattern is suitable for yarns with both long and short color gradients. It’s important that there are color gradients at all, because that’s what makes the diagonally knitted pattern stand out.

I think brioche stitch works well for large areas. It is soft and has a bit of texture, but not too much, so colorful yarns with color gradients show up nicely. Here it is used for a rectangular stole. If you have never knitted brioche stitch before, it is explained in the pattern with photos.

You can find the pattern here.

We need them in every season and every quality...
... the triangular shawls!
Hardly any accessory spices up a supposedly boring outfit as much as our shawls.

The pattern used looks complex, but is so easy to make,
that even beginners will enjoy it!

A detailed step-by-step explanation guides you through the crochet pattern.
Row by row and stitch by stitch are explained.
For clarification, 1 chart in crochet chart format can be found in the pattern.

The size of the shawl is approximately 180 x 100 cm.
However, it can be made smaller or larger as needed—with little effort.
The stated gauge helps with this!

And here’s the pattern and more details...

I used 1200 m of 3-ply gradient yarn and a 3 mm hook for it, but the loop scarf can also be crocheted shorter/longer, wider/narrower, ...
