Freya Shawl Crochet Pattern (PDF)

Chart + Written Instructions | Intermediate Crochet Pattern

The Freya Shawl is a beautifully textured triangle shawl that combines open lace, shells, and post stitches to create depth and movement while remaining relaxing to crochet.

Designed with both charts and written instructions, this pattern helps reduce guesswork and makes it easier to see how the shawl grows row by row.

The pattern gradually builds from the center outward, alternating stitch textures that create a striking geometric lace design. With a fingering-weight gradient yarn, the shawl develops stunning color transitions as it grows.

Perfect for confident beginners ready for a challenge or experienced crocheters who enjoy texture-rich projects.
