Sienna Harvest Berry Shawl is a medium size triangular Tunisian crochet shawl that is constructed top down. It uses 2 100 g skeins of fingering yarn weight, which enables the shawl to be a great layering option.
The pattern uses a variety stitches, some basic and some more advanced in combinations to create a beautiful lace shawl. This project is rated as intermediate, however it is suitable for all skill levels with focused attention.
The colours chosen for the sample in photographs are reminiscent of the beautiful, rich colour palette of autumn harvest.

Skill level
Finished measurements
The final triangular crochet shawl measurements (blocked):
Wingspan 134 x 67 cm (approx. 52.75 x 26.5 in)
Materials and tools
To get the exact look as on the pictures of my triangular crochet shawl, you will need:
Malabrigo Sock (100% Wool | Light Fingering | 100 g (3.5 oz) = 402 m (440 yds)), Archangel (#SW850) (A) 1 skein
Black Elephant Yarns (75% Superwash Merino, 25% Nylon | Fingering | 100 g (3.5 oz) = 425 m (465 yds)), Minerva (B) 1 skein
Tunisian crochet hook size 4 mm (US size G-6) with cable (at least 100 cm (40 in)) or size to obtain the gauge
Tapestry needle
Scissors

Gauge
Blocked Gauge:
18 sts x 22 rows = 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4)” over tks and tss st pattern
Gauge helps you to understand how the project turns out in terms of the final size. If you would like to achieve the exact size of the final project as in the instructions above, you gauge needs to match exactly to the above.
If you get more stitches and/or rows than stated above using the exact hook size as per instructions, your final project will turn out smaller. Conversely, if you get less stitches and/or rows than stated above using the exact hooks size as per instructions, your final project will turn out bigger.
To make adjustments, if you get more stitches and/or rows, you can try using bigger hook size to get closer to the desired size. Conversely, if you get less stitches and/or rows, you can try using smaller hook size to get closer to the desired size.
It may take trial and error to try out a few hook sizes to achieve the exact size.
Alternatively, if you really don’t want to make several samples to achieve the desired size, you can try to alter your tension as you work the project. However, I would advise to try this out once you master the basics of Tunisian crochet as it may be a bit tiresome to try to master the basics of crochet and focus on alternating your tension while working the project.
Stitch guide
Tunisian crochet stitches are worked in 2 steps; forward and return pass from right to left, with the number of sts (lps) increasing on the hook during the forward pass and decreasing during the return pass.
Return pass is worked in the same way for all stitches (rows of sts) used in this project as follows (EXCEPT when changing colours on return pass, please see below for details of this technique): 1 ch, *yrh, draw through 2 lps on hook, rep from * until 1 lp on hook.
Return pass changing colours in Tunisian crochet: The new colour is added when starting the return pass of the row and all lps of the forward pass are on the hook (i.e. End stitch was worked). Yrh with the old colour from front to back (this adds an extra loop on hook to create neat edge that matches the edge created during Standard RP). Add new colour on hook: draw through 2 lps, * yrh, draw through 2 lps on hook; rep from * until 1 lp on hook.
Edge stitches:
Right edge stitch- This is the first lp on hook and counts as first st unless otherwise stated.
Left edge stitch- This st is referred to in the pattern as the End Stitch (ES) and is crocheted as follows: Rotate the end of the fabric towards yourself, insert the hook under both bars (left and right) of the last st, yrh and pul.
- First row of Tunisian crochet: Insert the hook in the back bump of second ch from hook, yrh and pul across.
- Tunisian simple stitch: Insert the hook from right to left under front vertical bar of the next st, yrh and pul.
- Extended Tunisian simple stitch: Tss, ch 1.
- Tunisian knit stitch: Insert the hook from front to back between the front and back vertical bar, yrh and pul.
- Extended Tunisian knit stitch: Tks, ch 1.
- Tunisian double crochet: Yrh, insert hook from right to left under the front vertical bar, pul, yrh and pull through 2 lps. Tdc sts in this pattern are worked under 2 front vertical bars.
- Tunisian slanted stitch: Insert hook from left to right under the front vertical bar of the next st, yrh and pul.
- Extended Tunisian slanted stitch: Tsls, ch 1.
Tunisian Simple stitch bind off: Insert hook from right to left under front vertical bar of the next st, yrh, pul and pull through the lp that is on the hook. One lp remains on the hook.
Notes:
- The Sienna Harvest Berry Shawl is worked flat, RS facing from right to left.
- The shawl starts in the middle of the wingspan and expands to the left, right, increasing in width with each consecutive row.
- Each row has an increase of 4 sts (lps).
- The stitch count refers to the number of lps on hook on FP.
- Blocking the shawl is essential for this project as it opens up lace stitches and highlights each individual stitch pattern.
The triangular crochet shawl is made in three distinct sections:
- Section made alternating tks and tss only
- Lace section made using yrh and tss
- Lace section using 2 tdc worked under 2 front vertical bars
