The Boreal Shawl reminds me of a walk through the forest. This unique crochet shawl pattern is worked from the center out in a triangle shape and features a cable lace design reminiscent of pine trees all lined up in rows.

Below you will find the written instructions for this cable crochet shawl pattern as well as materials needed, gauge information, final measurements, stitches used, and any notes needed to complete this project.

What Yarn do you Need to Crochet a Shawl?

You can use almost any type of yarn to make a shawl! For this shawl, I chose to use Paintbox Simply DK from Lovecrafts.com. This is a #3 – or DK weight- acrylic yarn. It is easy to care for, comes in 63 shades and is perfect for shawls, baby blankets, and more.

When choosing a yarn for this pattern, I recommend avoiding anything too heavily variegated, as the design would get lost in the color changes.

Self-striping yarn works really well for this shawl. Originally I had planned on (and started) using Lion Brand Mandala but then later switched to the Paintbox.

To make this shawl larger, try using a worsted weight yarn and a 5.5mm or 6mm hook instead of DK weight yarn.

Crochet Cable Shell Stitch

If you’ve scrolled ahead, you will have seen that this pattern is LONG. That’s because I had to write out instructions for every single row. Even though I used the same stitches for the entire shawl, there was no clear row-to-row repeat.

The lace cable stitch itself is not difficult. If you understand how to make front and back post stitches, you can do this stitch. There is no fancy crossing of stitches, either! The key to success with this pattern is careful counting.

VIDEO TUTORIAL: How to Crochet Post Stitches

The post stitches form what looks like a ‘V’ as each row is added. Between the post stitches, a shell group is made expanding by 1 stitch each row until the pattern starts over. You can see an up-close photo below.

How to Crochet a Shawl

Shawls come in all shapes and sizes, to go through them all will make this already long post even longer so let’s save that for another time. This particular pattern is a triangle shawl worked from the center out. I have a couple of other shawl patterns made in this fashion too, like the What You Love Shawl or the Spring Fling Scarf.

Triangle shawls like this one start in the center with what is essentially half of a granny square, increases are then added at the beginning and ends of rows as well as in the center before and after the chain space. This creates and keeps the triangle shape.
