“Camargue shawl by Sylvie Damey”
Description
Camargue shawl is a sideways shawl, with a spectacular ruffled edging. Make the most of the beauty of Noro yarns (or any other self-striping or handpainted yarns) !


Two sizes are included in pattern:

- size 1 has fewer repeats for body of shawl and made with FINGERING weight yarn (Noro Flower bed): approx 300m for body of shawl + 360 m for ruffle edging.

- size 2, shown here in turquoise, has more repeats for body of shawl and made with SPORTS weight yarn (Noro Silk garden sock/4ply): approx 360 m for body of shawl + 435 m for edging.

Pattern is easy to customize with different weights of yarn: start with the body of shawl, and stop whenever the length of shawl suits you. The added ruffle edging will then adapt to your chosen size of shawl !

This crochet pattern was thoroughly tested to ensure it’s error-free and as clear as can be. Includes step-by-step photos and a photo-tutorial for the special stitch used for body of shawl.

“Camargue” is a triangular area of Provence in the south of France. With the Rhone delta and salt wetlands, it’s famous for its pink flamingos, white Camargue horses and black bulls. Its wild long beaches such as l’Espiguettte offer amazing sights and long beach walks.
