Loop shawl to keep you warm - crochet instruction

Once the days get colder, it's nice to have a loop shawl to snuggle into. This shawl can be draped around the neck (wound once or even twice for more warmth) or around the head to cover your ears when there is a fierce wind blowing.

Knowledge of the following stitches is needed:

• chains
• slip stitch
• double crochet (US) / treble crochet (UK)
• crochet together
• back post double crochet (US) / back post treble crochet (UK)

The pattern is suited for experienced beginners with solid basic knowledge; more experienced crocheters can easily crochet the pattern while, for instance, watching TV.

You receive written instructions with photos and a computer-based crochet chart in a pdf-file.

Please note:
On offer is not the finished product, but a tutorial (pdf-file for download) to crochet it yourself.
