Hi, lovely!
You’re in for a treat today. We have a SUPER fun crochet pattern for ya – Lilith by Kristina Smiley. It’s such a great pattern for using speckled or variegated yarns (try pairing one of those with a solid) and works up pretty quickly since it’s made in DK weight yarn.
Look at those fun stripes! You can follow the exact striping sequence we did or just wing it and change colors as you wish, pulling the yarn up the side as you go to avoid having to weave in a bajillion tails. 
Notes From the Designer:
•An asymmetric right leaning triangle that grows as you go!
•Shawl is crocheted with a 2 row repeating pattern making it a perfect project for binge watching your favorite tv series episodes.
•Sample is worked with alternating stripes of two colors, but you can use solids or keep it simple with just one color, whatever you wish. Just be sure to alternate skeins if using hand-dyed yarn to keep your colors from pooling.
——————————————————————————————————————————
My inspiration for this design (and name) is a character from the book I am currently reading. The character, Lilith, starts off in the background as a small character, but grows bolder and more confident as her story develops. Like the character, this shawl grows as you crochet and continue adding more yarn. Have a ton of fun with your shawl and be sure to link your finished shawls to the pattern Ravelry page so we can enjoy them too!
The sample was made in our Alpaca Silk Dk yarn – so draping and soft and buttery with the softest glow. Colors are Mystic Topaz (3 skeins) and Restless (1 skein).
Anyways. Enough blabbering, eh?

Thank you so much for this pattern and for the tutorial video, Chandi! I’m such a beginner at crochet that it really helps for me to see the stitches as they’re being done so can make visual sense of the pattern as it continues. I caught on immediately, which is so exciting!!! Thank you, thank you! This will be so much fun to watch as it grows! Cheers!
Keep your videos coming as they are such a joy to watch along with being very educational. You make easy to learn new patterns and techniques. The yarn is gorgeous and you’re beautiful.
Awesome colors! I am actually working on o e like this right now!
Loved your video! Thanks!!
I love your yarn. It’s like looking at a Monet.
Love it I’m an avid crocheted since early childhood. My favorite thing is to crochet shawls. I can’t wait to buy some of your fantastic yarn
I absolutely love love the colors of your yarn and I love your enthusiasm for what you are doing. Your color combinations are unlike anything you’ll find in a store (or at least I’ve not seen them). I think the colors and your patterns are a perfect match. Thanks
I enjoy your video tutorials I am a beginner crocheter I knit much better and I am a see and do learner so these video’s help a lot
I look forward to your emails, and dreaming!
Thank you so much for this super simple and gorgeous pattern……can’t wait to get started!! I can read and follow a written pattern, but sometimes I just really like the visual of a tutorial to reassure that I am doing it correctly. Again, thank you so much! You are a delight and so very talented!!
Please keep these videos coming. These videos are so helpful and really make understanding what to do easy. Thank You. 🙂
Hi! I love your patterns and yarn. I noticed that in the written pattern, it notes that the first turning chain in the row counts as a double crochet, but in the video, you don’t use the turning chain as one of the double crochets. Either way would work – I followed the pattern per your video and along the way, in error, I started increasing at the beginning of each row. I’m using a sock weight yarn and it’s turning out just fine. I’m using a pewter color as the base color yarn and crocheting random stripes in 6 variegated yarn colors. Very cool. Thank you!!
Thanks for the info Mary! ❤️❤️
Dear Chandi,
I do appreciate video tutorials a lot since I’m not a secure crocheter. For that reason, I would have like to see you change color and drag the solid color along because those are the kind of thing that people who need a video want to see.
I’m sure that secure crocheters won’t mind but secure crocheter mostly don’t need the video.
Don’t want to sound as if I don’t appreciate though because it’s not the case.
Thank you for everything!
Will you be getting more ‘Restless’ color yarn in the Lilith crochet pattern?
We will, yes! Thanks!
