Free Crochet Shawl Pattern for a Summer Evening

Crochet Summer Nights Shawl Pattern

The Yarn That is Perfect for this Crochet Shawl

Lion Brand Summer Nights yarn in the color “Cast Away“

The entire shawl is worked holding TWO skeins of Lion Brand Summer Night super fine yarn (weight 1) together at the same time.

I held two skeins together because I wanted to make it slighter thicker, so I could use a bigger 4.5 mm crochet hook and have the shawl work up faster.

The best part about this yarn is the metallic threads that are twisted in it which adds a bit of an extra shimmer to the shawl.

I used the colorway Treasure Island but there are quite a few more colors available that you could make this in too if you’d prefer.

If you’d like to take a closer look at Summer Nights see it on Lion Brand’s Website or on Amazon.

The Easy Crochet Shawl Pattern

*see the stitch chart below the pattern for extra help with stitch placement for the first 4 rows.

Row 1: Start with a ch 3, in the 3rd ch from the hook dc 2 times, ch 2, dc 3 times in the same stitch, turn. (6)

Row 2: ch 3, 2 dc in first st, sk 2 st’s and ch 1, dc 3 times in the ch 2 space from the row before, ch 2, dc 3 more times in the same ch 2 space, sk 2 sts, ch 1, end with 3 dc’s in the last st, turn. (12)

Row 3: ch 3, dc 2 times in the first st,  ch 1, dc, hdc, sc in the next ch 1 space, ch 1, dc 3 times in the next ch 2 space from the row before, ch 2, dc 3 times in the same ch 2 space, ch 1, sc, hdc, dc in the next ch 1 space, ch 1, sk 2 sts, dc 3 times into the last st(or turning ch), turn. (18)

Row 4: ch 3, dc 2 times in the first st, ch 1, * dc, hdc, sc, in the next ch 1 space, ch 1, repeat from * 1 time, dc 3 times in the next ch 2 space from the row before, ch 2, dc 3 times in the same space, ch 1, **sc, hdc, d, ch 1 in the next ch 1 space from the row before, repeat from * 1 time, dc 3 times in the top of the last st (or turning ch), turn. (24)

Row 5 – 28: The remaining rows are worked like row 4 but since we are increasing each round there will always be two more chain 1 spaces in each row to work into. For example, in row 3 there were 4 chain 1 spaces, in row 4 there were 6 chain 1 spaces which means that each row has an increase of six stitches since we always work 3 stitches into each ch 1 space.

Row 29 – 35: Work the same as row 4 but use ONLY double crochets in place of the single and half double crochets throughout the remaining rows.


Since there are TWO additional chain 1 spaces in each round then we will always have an increase of SIX stitches in each round.


The count of each round will be as follows starting with row 5

Stitch Count for Rows 5- 35: 30,36,42,48,54,60,66,72,78,84,90,96,102,108,114,120,126,132,138,144,150,156, 162,168,174,180,186,192,198, 204 & 210

Finishing: Fasten off and weave in loose ends with a yarn needle.
