Crochet terminology: Both US and UK.

This is a written pattern with photos and graphs.

This pattern is comprised of basic stitches and several special stitches. It uses my very own original stitch combination to produce a unique dragonfly that is specific to Auburncraft Crochet Design.

This is worked flat and features Filet work with some Popcorn stitches thrown in.

The stitches are basic but you do need to be able to focus as the length makes it just a slight challenge.

Many different yarns could be used for this design, but I used Scheepjes Whirl in Shrinking Violetand . (click here for Scheepjes Whirl) .

I worked from one ball of whirl, working from the centre out. Once that was used, I then worked from the second ball from the outside. This kept the colour flowing nicely. Once the main body of the shawl was completed I then started from the centre of the remaining ball. This meant that I had a perfect colour match for my bottom border.

My testers used several different colorways with incredible results.
