Working up a crochet shawl is mostly super easy and quick, so if you’ve got some free time ahead of you, consider trying out one of these stunning, free crochet shawl patterns.

Free Crochet Shawl Patterns
If you aren’t into plain outfits and don’t want your aesthetic to be called the girl next door’s fashion, shawls will add just the right pinch of spice to your attires that will have heads turn. Now let me clear a common misconception – not all shawls are big, chunky, thick and warm, and solely worn for the purpose of saving you from the harsh cold. Even thick and chunky shawls don’t have to look like blankets, not only that some shawls are super light and breezy and made just as an accessory and not a necessity.
#1 Triangle Shawl with Tassels
This beautiful triangular shawl is the perfect eye-catching accessory to make a statement with. Paired with the right sunglasses and leather sandals, you could own some of that Hollywood drama in this. It’s an affordable and simple project, and ideal for the seasonal transition of the year, particularly as winter steps into Spring, as it is midway warm, so you’ll be able to enjoy a bit of the chill yet still be comfortable.

#2 Meadowsweet Crochet Shawl

Either way, this pattern is simply beautiful. Patterns from Two Brothers Blankets
#3 The Peafowl Feathers’ Shawl
I love a fun twist to a regular pattern and donning those unique pieces. This pattern is super creative and beautiful for wearing over party dresses while you’re out. It has a different construction than the usual shawls, as you start with working a triangular crochet motif and working your way around all three sides initially, and gradually moving to working a border only around two of its sides. You will enjoy this pattern if you are open to trying out new ways. Patterns from Blue Star Crochet
