The Think Pink Crochet Friendship Shawl is a gorgeous and easy to stitch project for breast cancer awareness. Beautiful fans are made using just some simple basic stitches-chains and double crochet stitches only, so easy! This makes a very special gift for a friend, family member, or a support group. Looks equally lovely in stripes of pinks too!

Sizing:
- 60 Inches Long
- 19 Inches Wide
Note: to change the width, you can adjust the multiples of the starting chain. To make the shawl longer, just work more rows of the pattern!
Instructions:
- Ch 55 (multiple of 4+3)
- Row 1: In the 5th ch from the hook work (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc). *Skip 3 chains and in the chain after that, work (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc), repeat from * across until 2 chains remain. Skip a ch, then in the last ch, work 1 dc.
- Row 2: Ch 3 and turn. Work (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc) in each ch 1 space from the previous row (center of each fan). Work a dc into the turning chain space.
- Repeat row 2 until shawl is 60 inches long or desired length.
- Weave in ends and you’re finished!
It's beautiful and the delicate shade of pink shows the pretty stitch up so well.
It is so beautiful color and pattern for a shawl. This is my first time crocheting one
