Bobble Triangle Shawl Crochet Pattern

Pattern Overview

This Bobble Triangle Shawl provides a beautiful, vintage-inspired accessory with alternating texture and mesh. The design builds from a foundation ring and grows in rows that alternate between solid double crochet, mesh, and unique bobble textures. The triangle form is shaped by increasing at each side and center. Rows are repeated to grow the shawl to the desired size, with clear instructions for each row and special textured stitches for visual interest.

Quick Details

Shape: Classic triangle
Texture: Solid, mesh, and bobble rows
Repeat: Rows 4–7 are repeated for the full size
Construction: Built in back-and-forth rows from a center point

Important Tips

Always begin each row with a chain 4, which acts as a double crochet plus an extra chain for height.
End each row with 2 double crochet and 1 treble crochet for symmetrical triangle shaping.
When switching from solid to mesh or bobble rows, pay close attention to where you place your stitches and chains.
Blocking is essential for bringing out the shape and texture of the shawl.
Count stitches carefully in mesh and bobble sections to keep triangle edges straight and the center even.

Skill Level

Easy to intermediate. This pattern combines basic stitches with a bobble technique, making it accessible for adventurous beginners who are comfortable with double crochet, treble, and working into chain spaces.

Materials

DK or worsted weight yarn (choose your preferred color and texture)
5 mm (H-8) crochet hook or size needed to achieve gauge
Scissors
Yarn needle for weaving in ends

Measurements

The shawl is adjustable to any size. The sample progresses as a classic triangle, growing larger with each set of four repeated rows (solid, mesh, bobble, solid).
Sizing is controlled by the number of times you repeat rows 4 through 7.

Gauge

Gauge is not critical for this shawl.
For reference: After 3 full pattern repeats, the triangle should measure roughly 18-20 cm (7-8 inches) on each side with DK yarn and a 5 mm hook.
Adjust hook size as needed for desired drape.
