Denim Dreams Pocket Shawl Crochet Pattern

Soft and cozy, like your favorite pair of jeans, the Denim Dreams Pocket Shawl Crochet Pattern uses Lion Brand Jeans yarn and a size H (5.0 mm) hook. This yarn provides a lovely drape, and the lemon peel stitch is so easy!

Skill level: Easy

Finished pocket shawl (excluding fringe) measures approximately 16″ wide by your desired length. You can also make it more narrow for a gorgeous denim scarf.

Note: Rule of thumb for pocket shawls is to make it 2” longer than the person’s height.
For example, I am 62” tall, so the pocket shawl in the photo is 64” long excluding the fringe.

Materials you will need:
Lion Brand Jeans yarn
6 skeins colorway Stonewash
Size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook
Yarn needle
Two 1” brass buttons

Gauge: 14 sts = 4″, 14 rows = 4″

Lemon Peel Stitch:
Make a chain the desired width of your shawl. This should be an even number, then add one chain as turning chain.
Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook, dc in next ch, *sc in next ch, dc in next ch,* repeat across, ending with dc in last ch.
Row 2: Ch 1, turn, *sc in dc, dc in sc,* repeat across, ending with dc in last sc.
Repeat Row 2 until piece reaches desired length.
