If you know me for a bit, you surely know I have a weakness for shawls. I especially love to design them to crochet along with you. Here is a new one for your shawl collection!

The "Falling Leaves Shawl CAL" is a triangle shawl using a technique I developed to easily change colors and minimize weaving ends. The design translates into crochet the beauty of knitted leaves you might have seen in the knitting world. 

An intermediate crocheter or even a dedicated beginner will be comfortable in making this project. The pattern will include a PHOTO TUTORIAL with pictures showing the technique in more detail. The pattern is written in US crochet terms.
