Introducing the stunning Havra Wrap, a free crochet pattern for a rectangular shawl that will elevate your wardrobe.
Get ready to immerse yourself in the wonderful world of crochet and create a timeless piece with a touch of sophistication.
Are you ready to explore the beauty and versatility of the Havra Wrap? Let’s start this crochet journey together!
The Versatile Crochet Pattern For A Rectangular Shawl
The Havra Wrap is a sister pattern to the beloved Havra Infinity Scarf.
It features the mesmerizing chevron design that adds a touch of elegance to any outfit.
However, with the Havra Wrap, we take it a step further. This wrap is worked on the bias, creating a unique parallelogram shape that adds dynamic flair and exquisite drape to the shawl.
Crocheting on the Bias
Crocheting on the bias is a fascinating technique that adds an element of adventure to your project.
By working on the diagonal, you will decrease stitches on one side and increase on the other, resulting in the dynamic shape of the Havra Wrap.
Although it may seem advanced, this pattern is actually quite easy to follow, making it perfect for adventurous beginners who are familiar with basic decreases and increases.
Explore Your Creativity with Color and Stitch Patterns
One of the most exciting aspects of crocheting the Havra Wrap is the opportunity to explore various color combinations and stitch patterns.
Whether you opt for a stunning ombre yarn, a gradient set, or even experiment with contrasting colors, your wrap will become a true reflection of your personal style.
Additionally, this pattern is an excellent way to utilize those partial skeins in your stash, creating a unique and eye-catching accessory.
A Yarn that Transforms Your Project
For the Havra Wrap, I chose to work with Scheepjes Whirl yarn cake, and let me tell you, it’s a game-changer.
This fingering weight yarn is not only a pleasure to work with but also offers beautiful color transitions that bring your wrap to life.
The way the colors blend and flow together is truly magical.
If you haven’t experienced the joy of using Scheepjes Whirl yet, I highly recommend giving it a try.

Hello! I’m loving working this pattern! I wanted to let you know of an error I found in the written instructions in Row 15. The two places it says to “dc in next 3sts” it should be next 2sts. So it’s a total of 4 sts in a row before the increase and decrease, not 5.
This truly is a beautiful pattern.
