Item details

Basalt is an asymmetric shawl that can be crocheted bottom-up or top-down (instructions are given for both within this pattern). Its based on the beautiful geological feature of hexagonal basalt columns that are found across the planet. Inspired by Fingals Cave and The Giants Causeway, our best-known basalt columns in the UK, Basalt the shawl came into being.

Yarn: Yarn A - 2 x 100g400m of John Arbon Textiles Knit By Numbers 4 ply in KBN 04 (195g of the 200g was used)
Yarn B - 1 x 25g100m mini skein of Knit by Numbers 4 ply in KBN 02 - you have to use a mini skein for the hexagons, you could yarn substitute for scraps that you have at home as you only need 15g.

Hook: 3mm (US C2 or D3 hook) for the main body of the shawl and 3.5mm hook (US E4 hook) for starting chain.

Finished sizes: Unblocked dimensions of 41cm at the deepest part and 143cm for the top edge of the shawl. Blocked depth of 41cm and 160cm for the top edge.

Construction: Given that most people have a specific preference for either top-down or bottom-up shawls, I have created this one to suit both methods. Instructions are given for both within this pattern.

The hexagons are crocheted separately using Yarn B and are slip stitched on when the main shawl has been crocheted. The pattern contains details and a diagram showing the best way to attach the hexagons.

YouTube tutorial: Within the PDF there is a link to a YouTube tutorial that takes you through the more detailed elements of the shawl.

Many of my crochet designs are inspired by nature. Basalt was inspired by geology and my love of basalt columns, particularly those found in Scotland and Ireland.
