Shawl 60" x 40"-Free Crochet Pattern

This is my first attempt at a shawl, but will not be my last.  It works up faster and easier than I thought.  I can’t wait to get started on another!

Light weight shawl but pattern can be adapted to a heavier wt. yarn.  With a heavier wt. yarn, shawl would also work up to a larger size.
