Steppingstone Chevron Shawl

> **This pattern was first published in my second book, Interlocking Crochet, in May 2026. It is currently not available for individual purchase and can only be obtained by [purchasing the book][1].** ***DESCRIPTION*** The Steppingstone Chevron Shawl combines two different stitch patterns from the book and alternates them to create a brand-new chevron design. I designed it with a gradient yarn cake in mind, paired with a highly contrasting color, which allows for the subtle hue shifts to create seamless color transitions. This being said, if gradient yarn cakes aren't your thing, it also looks gorgeous as a two-toned shawl! The changing direction of the diagonals adds an optical illusion effect where the design changes depending on the angle it is viewed from, making it seem like many different stitch patterns have been used throughout. Designed as a generously sized rectangular shawl, it drapes beautifully in lightweight cotton—silky smooth and effortlessly elegant to wear. ***FINISHED MEASUREMENTS*** Width: 15 inches (38 cm) Length: 92 inches (234 cm) This shawl pattern is written for one size, but it can be easily customized to fit your desired measurements. Simply start with a smaller/larger number of stitches to change the width, and then keep crocheting until you reach your desired length! ***DIFFICULTY*** Intermediate ***MATERIALS*** *Yarn* Fingering weight. Feel free to experiment with different yarn weights!
