Crochet Chevron Shawl Pattern
The classic chevron crochet stitch pattern is widely used for blankets and who can disagree? It’s gorgeous with it’s zig zag pattern. Did you know, though, that it can be used for shawls, too? No? Well, let me introduce you to the Northern Coast Shawl, a crochet chevron shawl pattern.
It’s not hard to love a classic chevron crochet pattern, whether it is worked in rows or in the round to form a star like my Rising Star Baby Blanket. It’s simple, it’s classic and it’s a fun way to bring some visual interest into whatever project you’re making.
This crochet chevron shawl is no exception. With a gorgeous half circle design, this crochet shawl pattern radiates in peaks and valleys. To add a touch of extra personality and beauty, puff stitches line the peaks and draw the eye outward.

The idea for a half circle crochet chevron shawl came to me and absolutely would not leave. I love shawls of all types, whether they are a triangle or a rectangle, but I loved the idea of a half circle that was more than just a half circle. I wanted elongating lines, visual interest on the edges and radiating color.
When I decided to make it a crochet chevron shawl, I was in love.
I won’t tell you the amount of different yarn I went through trying to nail down the vision I had in my head. Just know, I played with a lot of different yarns of different fibers and colors.
I finally landed on Yarn Bee’s Sugarwheel Cotton in the colorway Nutmeg Nibbles. It had the perfect stitch definition I was looking for and has the added benefit of being easily washed and blocked without too much care.
Plus, the colors remind me of the Northern coast where I’m from and of waves crashing on the beach. I couldn’t not use it, right?
A Beautiful Crochet Chevron Shawl Pattern
This crochet chevron shawl is designed by working from the center of the wingspan (the part that goes across your shoulders) outward. The shawl becomes larger and larger with each row and the peaks and valleys of the chevron pattern become more pronounced as we continue.
This crochet shawl pattern is perfect for self striping yarn, as you can see in the sample photos. It would also be fantastic in a solid color or in yarn that very slowly changes color.
Ultimately, I did design this crochet shawl using DK (Light – 3) weight cotton yarn, but you can easily use a different fiber or yarn weight if you prefer. Do keep in mind that if you change the yarn weight, the yarn usage for your crochet chevron shawl will differ and you will likely need to use a different hook size. You may also need to work more or less rows than instructed in the pattern.
This crochet chevron shawl is also fairly easy to customize. If you’d prefer a smaller shawl, you can simply stop crocheting the rows when the shawl is the size you like. If you’d prefer a larger shawl, you can continue crocheting rows in the established pattern until it reaches the size you desire.

SKILL LEVEL
Advanced Beginner/Light Intermediate – This crochet chevron shawl uses fairly basic stitches and techniques that most advanced beginner crocheters should know. You should know how to chain, single crochet, double crochet, skip stitches, create chain spaces and work into them, and understand how to put several stitches into one indicated stitch or space.
Slightly more advanced techniques include the Puff Stitch, which is detailed in full in the Special Stitches section of this pattern.
You will need endurance as some rows have hundreds of stitches and you will need to know how to properly count stitches.
MATERIALS
Cotton DK (Light-3) yarn of your choice. You will need approximately 15 ounces/425 grams/1,005 yards.
Yarn Used
Yarn Bee Sugarwheel Cotton in colorway Nutmeg Nibbles
TOOLS
4.5 mm (G+) hook
Tapestry needle
Scissors
Stitch Markers, if you prefer them
Blocking Mats and Blocking Pins/Combs
GAUGE
16 dc x 9 rows = Approx 4 inches x 4 inches.
Special note: If your gauge is slightly off, it won’t ruin the shawl. Your shawl might be a little bigger or smaller, but you can always stop crocheting rows when your shawl is the size you like or continue creating rows if you’d like a bigger shawl. If your gauge is off by a lot, you may want to change hook size.
Note: I am a tight crocheter, so my tension is usually tighter than others. Learn more about gauge and what this means here.
FINISHED SIZE
Wingspan (across shoulders): Approximately 64 inches
Length (at longest point): Approximately 30 inches.
Size is listed after blocking.
You can easily make this shawl smaller or larger.
Make the shawl smaller by stopping when the shawl is as big as you’d like or make it larger by adding rows.

NOTES
- This shawl is worked from the center of the wingspan out in rows, growing larger with each row.
- This shawl is worked in a “chevron” pattern, which has peaked points and valleys.
- This shawl increases by creating chain 1 spaces. On rows that do not increase, there will be no chain 1 spaces made.
- Chain 1 spaces are counted as stitches to be worked into and are included in the stitch count. For example: (36 sts, 5 ch 2 spcs). This means there are 36 stitches TOTAL, including the 10 chain 1 spaces created in this row.
- Some rows of this shawl do not increase and will have the same stitch count as the previous row. There will be a note each time this occurs.
- Chain 1 and Chain 2 turning chains do not count as stitches. Always start your row in the same stitch you chained out of.
- Chain 2 spaces are always considered a “peak” of the chevron.
- You can use a different yarn weight or a different fiber of yarn if you prefer. Keep in mind: Your yarn usage will differ.
What are Peaks and Valleys?
A classic Chevron stitch pattern has what is referred to as “peaks” and “valleys”. This is a fancy way to say the point and the dip of the zig zag pattern.
A peak is always created by working 1 stitch into a chain 2 space, chaining 2 and working 1 stitch into the same chain 2 space.
A valley is always created by skipping 2 stitches.
What is the Slope and Why Does it Matter?
In this crochet chevron shawl pattern, the slope is the section of stitches (including chain 1 spaces) between each peak and valley. This will be referenced in the stitch count.
For example, you will see a full stitch count as “(168 sts, 5 ch 2 spcs | 14 sts each slope)”. In this example, you will have a total of 168 stitches with 5 chain 2 spaces and on each slope there will be 14 stitches.
I’ve included this for ease of stitch counting. In the earlier rows, counting stitches is fairly quick but, in later rows, there are hundreds of stitches which can make counting your stitches difficult.
With this information, you can accurately verify your stitches by counting the stitches on each slope.
Special Stitch – Puff Stitch (PS)
This pattern uses a closed Puff Stitch (PS). Puff Stitches are worked in a few different ways – so it is important to know which PS stitch to use. For the purposes of this pattern, we will be working with a closed PS.
To work this Puff Stitch (PS), you will: [Yarn over and insert your hook into the indicated space. Yarn over and pull up a loop.] Repeat inside of the brackets 3 more times in the same space. You should now have 9 loops on your hook. Yarn over and pull through 8 of the 9 loops. 2 loops on hook, yarn over, pull through 2.
Working a “closed” PS gives you an obvious top of the stitch.
Special Stitch – Magic Circle
This pattern is written to use a magic circle. You can use the magic circle or you can chain 3 and slip stitch to the first chain made to create a circle to work into. Your choice!
If you don’t know how to work a magic circle but would like to learn, I do have a photo and video tutorial!

Finish off, weave ends. You’re done!
You may prefer to block your work to really define the points of the chevron.
I blocked mine on my Knit IQ blocking mats and I used these blocking combs (these are amazing for straight lines!). I also used T pins to pull the points of the chevron down to really define them.
Then, I sprayed the crochet chevron shawl lightly with water and left overnight.
