This was an interesting experiment with a Craftsy yarn purchase. The yarn is Gedifra Morelia in Powder. The pattern is based on KUAS's dummy clap shawl. I changed the number of cast-on stitches and did some basic edging in garter stitch. I made this to go with a sleeveless outfit that I'm hoping to go dancing in later this year. I wanted something to cover my shoulders and arms.
I used 4 skeins of Gedifra Morelia in powder on US size 19 (15 mm). I bound off loosely with my largest wooden crochet hook which is a size 15 (which is about a 10 mm).
This is my pattern:
Cast on 20 st.
R1-4 K
R5 K3, P14, K3 (WS)
R6 K (RS)
Repeat last 2 rows until 3 rows from desired length
Last 3 Rows: K
Bind off: K2, slip1st st off over 2nd st, k1, slip previous stitch over last st, drop next st off left-hand needle and ch 1 with crochet hook, bind off next 3 st, drop st, ch 1, bind off 4 st, drop st, ch 1, bind off 3 st, drop st, ch1, bind off 3. Work the dropped stitches down to the cast-on edge.
