How to Crochet the Granny Stitch
The granny stitch is easy to achieve and is often the first type of stitch that a new beginner at crochet learns. It is made up of a combination of double crochet and chain stitches.
When working the granny stitch, it is often worked in clusters of 3 double crochet stitches, followed by a chain stitch. Because of the repetitive nature of this stitch, it makes it perfect for a beginner at crochet.
Triangle Crochet Shawl
This shawl is worked from the bottom up with the triangle growing in size with each row. The width of this pattern ends up being double what the length is. It makes for a lovely, light cover up. This could be worn as a sarong on the beach or as a swimsuit cover up.
Make a Lightweight Shawl Today
It is light enough to wrap over your shoulders to take the chill off or wear on a hot summer day as a gorgeous accessory. Make this in white and it could be a very pretty shawl for a bride to wear.
This crochet pattern is an easy one to master with the repeating stitches throughout the rows. I love crochet patterns that do not require much counting, as this allows me to binge watch some movies with my family.
How to Crochet a Granny Shawl Triangle Motif
This is a straightforward crochet pattern, and it is easy to master. Often, I see a granny shawl triangle pattern starting from the top and working down. With this crochet pattern, you start at the bottom top and work up the shawl. Pairing this crochet stitch with the lovely fingering yarn makes this look and feel so modern. I really love the drape of this.
Color Changes Throughout the Pattern
I made two of these beautiful, lacy shawls and started both yarn cakes in the middle. When using the variegated yarn, keep in mind that as the crochet project grows the number of rows completed with each color reduces.
Therefore, whichever colors you want to show more of in the shawl, that is the color you should start with. I could have started with the outside of the skein which would have more of the darker colors throughout the shawl with the lighter shades being the accent colors.
As you can see, I started in the middle of the skein of yarn and the lighter colors make up more of the rows than the darker colors.

Triangle Scarf is Another Great Crochet Pattern for a Beginner
Working this Crochet Triangle Shawl Pattern with a worsted yarn can be done. The results will be a larger shawl if you used the same number of yards.
In another pattern, I used this same stitch pattern and used less yarn, 388 yards. I was able to make a nice size scarf with fringe.
