Lightweight C2C Geometric Shawl – Free Crochet Pattern

July 13, 2020

Free Crochet Pattern for how to crochet a lightweight geometric rectangle shawl perfect for cool Summer nights.

This post contains affiliate links for Lion Brand Yarns, LoveCrafts & Color Street. If you make a purchase by clicking on them, I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thanks for your support!

Last May, I was getting ready to visit with my family in New Jersey, and planning on a project to take with me. While at JoAnn’s, I stopped to look at the Bernat’s Softee Baby Cotton, as I did pretty much every time prior to this visit. I’ve always wanted to try it, but was either not in a financial position to, or couldn’t think of what I’d use it for. This time, I envisioned this shawl when I saw the colors together, so in my basket it went as well as in my luggage.

This shawl wasn’t a project I worked on a lot, and when the holidays came, it was put on the back burner, then there was the matter of running out of the cream yarn… JoAnn’s had been out of the cream a couple of my visits, and when I finally was able to grab another ball, I had lost steam on the project.

Recently though, I looked at it sitting on my desk, and was determined to get it finished up. As soon as I weaved in the last end, I grabbed my tripod, and headed down to the lake to take the photos.

The sky was black, but the breeze was gorgeous, and I had some fun getting my photos, even while racing against mother nature (which I lost because it started raining on me while I was down there).

Materials:

  • 1,175 Yards of Lightweight Yarn – I used Bernat’s Softee Baby Cotton in Aqua Mist (Blue; 310 Yards), Duckling (Yellow; 310 Yards) and Cotton (Cream; 555 Yards)
  • H8/5mm Crochet Hook
  • Tapestry Needle

Material Notes:

This shawl was designed in a cotton blend, which is heavier with flat, more defined stitches – characteristics of the cotton fiber. If worked in another fiber, like wool or acrylic, it will come out smaller in size. To follow the same exact pattern, go up a hook size or use worsted weight yarn.

Softee Baby Cotton is also a heavier lightweight yarn. Yarn Alternatives Similar to Softee Baby Cotton: Cascade’s Sarasota Yarn, Berroco’s Modern Cotton (#4), and Lion Brand’s Comfy Cotton.

Measurements:

15″ Tall by 60″ Wide

Gauge:

6 Boxes = 3.75″ by 4″

Abbreviation (US):

  • DC – Double Crochet (Photo Tutorial)

Pattern Notes:

This pattern is written with colors and boxes only. If you would like more details on how to work the corner to corner technique, check out my How to C2C in DC photo tutorial.

Beginning chain 2 counts as a double crochet.

A box is comprised of four double crochetโ€™s.  

Working the final double crochet into the top of the chain from the previous row helps to keep the edge more even. After completing the first box, you may also need to lightly tug on it to keep it even as well.

      I love trying different pieces out in different seasons. It’s so fun! Especially here in Florida where our Winters aren’t too cold, so this cotton shawl should be a nice piece to wear during the day.

    The cotton yarn really makes the C2C show up doesn’t it? I wasn’t sure what stitch it was when I first saw the photos! This is beautiful, ideal for summer evenings.

      Yes, I am still learning about photography, but I was having fun with it. Love how cotton yarn works up. The stitch definition is incredible.

      I did not this time. With the large color blocks, it made it really easy to just work from the three skeins.

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind EyeLoveKnots and On Rockwood Lane! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden orย re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.
