Yarn for the Luna Shawl
This was my first yarn purchase from Hobby Lobby. I decided to buy the store brand Yarn Bee.
The self striping yarn Sugarwheel Cotton caught my eye and color choice was an easy one: the local University’s color is purple, so I went with it. It’s called “Honey, It’s Homemade”.
LIGHTWEIGHT SPRING AND SUMMER SHAWL
Luna is a lightweight versatile shawl which will keep you warm during chilly Spring and Summer evenings. You can wear it as a scarf as well to add an unique touch to any outfit during colder months.

Crochet Pattern Notes
- This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
- All measurements given are blocked.
- Note that measurements are given as exact as possible. But crochet tension & technique might give variations in the result, that changes from person to person.
- Read pattern instructions carefully before beginning to make sure you understand everything. It might save you hours frogging your work & crocheting it again!
- Make a swatch that measure at least 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches using the stitch the gauge is given for. If your swatch matches the gauge, you’re good to go. If the gauge is wrong, you might need to change your hook. Go up in crochet hook size if your stitches are smaller & go down in crochet hook size if your stitches are bigger. Learn more about testing gauge.
- Check yarn info if you want to find an alternative or test your yarn against the gauge. Learn more about substituting yarn.
- This pattern is written for 1 size for adult.
- At the end of first 15 rows, the stitch count is given in parenthesis.
