Lovely crochet project:

Supplies:

 

 Soft yarn in pretty pastel colors

 Crochet hook size J (6.0mm)

 Scissors

 A needle for weaving in ends

 Maybe some markers if you like

Let's talk about measurements:

12 double crochet stitches by 7 rows make 4 inches (10 cm)

Now for the basics:

 ch = chain

 dc = double crochet

 sc = single crochet

 st = stitch

 sl st = slip stitch

Time to get crafting with the pattern:

Let's make a beautiful flower motif:

Start with a chain of 4 and connect to form a circle.

First round:

Work 6 double crochets into the ring, and join with a slip stitch.

Second round:

Chain 3 (it's your first double crochet), then double crochet in each stitch around, and join. (That makes 6 DCS)

Third round:

Chain 3, keep going with double crochets in each stitch around, then join again.

Fourth round:

 (That'll be 6 sc)

Cut the yarn leaving a long piece for sewing.

Moving on to the shawl pattern:

Starting row:

Chain 140 (or any multiple of 12 plus 11).

Rows 2 - 7:

Double crochet in the fourth chain from the hook, and continue across. Turn after each row. (You'll end up with 139 dcs)

Row number eight:

Chain three, work on those double crochets across, then turn again.

Time to add those lovely flowers:

Attach a flower motif about twelve stitches from the start of row nine.

Row nine:

Repeat working across with double crochets while including the flower, then turn again.

Keep alternating rows eight and nine until your shawl reaches your preferred length.

Finishing touch - the border:

Single crochet all around the shawl, then join with a slip stitch.

Cut off excess yarn and hide those ends away.

Some friendly tips for you:

 Those markers can help keep track of where you are.

 Adjust your starting chain length for different sizes.

 Experiment with various yarn colors and weights for some creative fun!

Wishing you tons of joy creating this stunning crochet flower shawl! Happy crafting!
