Tunisian Crochet Lightning Shawl
"This Tunisian crochet Lightning Shawl is a very fun and easy pattern mostly made with the Tunisian crochet full stitch. Despite the appearance, this shawl does not have a single decrease or increase to make, at least in a classical way. Instead, the forward pass of this shawl is always a basic row made in Tunisian crochet full stitch. The thing that changes is the return pass, which is either done the classical way or by directly yarning over and pulling through two. But everything is explained in the pattern with clear pictures."
