How do I crochet a boho-style triangle shawl?
('Why Triangle Shawls Are a Great Next Project', 'A triangle shawl worked from the center out (or top down) is one of the most approachable shapes to learn increase techniques on, since the shaping is simple and repetitive once you learn the pattern.')
('Choosing Yarn for Drape', 'A lighter worsted or DK weight yarn with some drape — like a wool blend or cotton blend — gives a shawl that wraps and drapes well rather than standing stiff.')
('Reading Written vs. Charted Patterns', 'Many shawl patterns include both a written row-by-row description and a visual stitch chart. Charts can be especially helpful for spotting your place in a repeat, while written instructions spell out every stitch in words.')
('Adding Fringe', "Fringe is typically added last, after blocking, by cutting yarn strands to a consistent length and looping them through the shawl's edge stitches with a crochet hook, then trimming even.")
