For once I am very glad that the complete pattern for this project is shown here on AllFreeCrochet because it is NOT on the Yarnspirations site any more. I love the sunny color of the yarn, and the oversized shells look like the suns rays peeking over the horizon. Ill have to Copy and Paste this into a new document, but thats okay.

This Summer Morning Shawl is so beautiful, the color used is very appropriate for the summer season. The color yellow signifies sunshine and life, perfect as mother's day gift, Christmas or birthday gift to someone special. Yellow is my favorite color, need I say more? Cheers!

It's so pretty in yellow. In my opinion it looks a little tiny as pictured on the model. I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough to cover up a woman my size, plus-sized. This might be one that I would have to step up on the yarn bulk and the hook size for a little extra coverage. Otherwise, it is lovely!

I could see this also in many colors. I would call it "Cover me softly with color"....I have not had time to try this one yet.

What diagram ? I just copied the pattern to word and spaced out the rows so I could read it....it also says it is Spring Morning shawl and then the pattern says Summer Morning shawl. I hope the pattern matches the picture....this is a bit confusing.

Big Thanks for the creator for sharing the 'diagram' too I am not from the United States or Britain or Australia with less knowledge of English than necessary so following the written patterns is much too difficult and makes me feel uncertain in really desiring to make the piece I' ve been crocheting for ages with lots of practice and have been reading this newsletter for more than a year for fun because I never found anything with the the sketch diagram which is absolutely common to use in Europe So for the first time I could complete something from this fabulous webpage and tell you having done it from raw white yarn for a holy communion mass with a simple navy blue Jackie K style dress it REALLY looked pretty Thank you so much and please if possible try to draw the diagram when it is possible letting us foreigners…Read More to do it too

YIKES! Has ANYONE tried making this let alone naming it? It's single spaced, making it tough to follow. I agree with the comment left by Rhonda Lefty on 6/2/13. It has been a struggle to get through, referring to previous placed stitches to see the pattern. Thankfully the center is referenced so I know I am on the other side. I have been crocheting for 30+ years and this should be rated "beginner" if the pattern was written correctly.

It looks pretty in the picture, but I tried the pattern and could not get it to lay right. The shell areas hang away from the chain stitch areas. I am an experienced crocheter (36 years) so I think something is wrong with the pattern.
Audeo
Apr 23, 2018
I totally agree. I, too, am an experienced crocheter and have tried this pattern about 7 - 8 times. There's something wrong as the written pattern does not line up with the chart and it won't lay flat either. All goes well until row 8.

I think "Sweetheart Shawl" would be a good name for this shawl. The young model has such a sweet, innocent expression on her face; I bet her daddy calls her his "Little Sweetheart". This shawl could be in any color, even a color for those cool fall days and nights.

"Sunday at the Beach" Waves, shells, fans and rays of sun all appear in the pattern and it reminds me of when I was younger we had to wear a shawl over our shoulders in church ( no bare arms allowed).

Since this shawl could be any color, I go with the circle motif. The name Ajla means halo, circle of light, moonlight. I also like Mariko (This one especially), her name means circle child.

Amarillo Lacey Shell. This name describes the shawl that is shown but even if a person was to chose a different color the name could still apply for a woman would want to wear a beautiful lacey shell shawl such as this in Amarillo, Texas especially in the spring or on a summer evening.

Golden Phoenix, because the spine of the shawl looks like a phoenix, and the rest of the shells resemble the phoenix wings.
