Foundation Single Crochet (fsc):

Next fsc: Insert hook into base of previous stitch (in the “chain” space), yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and draw through 1 loop on hook (forming a chain), yarn over and draw through 2 loops on hook (forming the next single crochet). Repeat directions for desired amount of sts.

NOTES

Play 5 end triangle is the same as Play 1. Play 5 is then seamed to the edge of Play 4. There is a simple edging and an optional edging and tassels for the short edge of the shawl.
Gauge is not critical in this project. Lace crochet easily can grow depending on how you make your chains. If your project measures larger, it will still be a beautiful project. If Play 1 is between 30-36” at the base, and 16-19” in height the final shawl will be great!
Project is worked on its longest side first and each row will shorten after creating a triangle.
Optional: If you do not want to start your project with foundation sc, you can chain instead.
