When I learned how to crochet herringbone stitch two years ago, I wanted to design patterns that would allow a crocheters to practice this new stitch, but also result in a really wearable, modern project in the end.
The best thing about this Diana Herringbone Crochet Stitch Shawl design is its simplicity and the pattern is much easier than it looks.
It’s totally Nerflix friendly and you can easy to pick up and put down without having to refer back to the pattern. Once I have the first four or so rows figured out, I turned on a good movie or listened to an audiobook.
The construction of Diana Herringbone Crochet Stitch Shawl is very simple. You just increase for a bunch of rows and then you decrease for a bunch of rows.
This herringbone crochet stitch shawl pattern is rich with possibilities for personalization! Wear it as a shawl or a scarf and adjust the size by adding or subtracting repeats. The shawl drapes nicely and will complement any outfit.
If you’re interested in adding some extra flair, you can add tassels or fringe. I had some leftover yarn from my old pattern, so I made few small tassels and added them to the border. This final touch adds tons of personality to this shawl.
When the stitch pattern of a project is repetitive, like with this herringbone crochet stitch shawl, you can really have some fun choosing yarn. I really think the yarn makes this design.
Using a variegated yarn is a great way to add interest to this unique triangle shawl pattern.
I fell in love with the deep rainbow mix with reds, golden, greens, purple scheme of Malabrigo Yarn’s Rios. The muted, yet rich tones would be perfect for an accessory this winter, I thought.
