Their shape, construction, and fabric choices all affect how they sit on the body, how they drape, and how they feel to wear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this class, students will explore the architecture of crochet shawls, including common shapes such as triangles, crescents, rectangles, bias wraps, asymmetrical shawls, and shallow scarf-style shapes. We’ll look at how increases, decreases, stitch height, gauge, and fabric density influence the final silhouette.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStudents will work through small swatches or mini-shapes to better understand how crochet shaping works in real time. This class is perfect for makers who want to better understand shawl construction, modify existing patterns with confidence, or begin thinking like designers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBest for: Crocheters who are able to chain, single crochet, and double crochet confidently and want to understand the “why” behind shawl shaping and design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLevel: \u003c\/b\u003eIntermediate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat you’ll need to bring to class:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eDK weight yarn 50 gms and an appropriate hook for dk weight yarn.
