Hello, gorgeous! Today, I have a beginner friendly, zigzag crochet scarf and shawl pattern to tell you all about. I think you’re going to adore making the Sierra scarf and shawl, so I hope you’ll keep reading for all the delightful details!

Sierra was designed by Kristina Smiley. When asked about the inspiration for this pattern, Kristina said, “A reversible design with an easy-to-remember repeating pattern. The small zigzag (chevron) pattern creates a “peaks and valleys” design throughout the scarf/shawl. It also creates a natural progression where the ends flare out. I chose to focus on this aspect in my design and allowed the yarn to do what it wanted when I blocked the finished scarf/shawl.”

This is an Adventurous Beginner level pattern and is perfect for crocheters who are ready to learn some new skills or stitch combinations. Skills include zigzag or chevron pattern. This pattern includes written instructions only.

The Sierra scarf and shawl is crocheted with our yummy Pearlescent Worsted yarn. Pearlescent Worsted is shimmering, heavenly, and wildly popular! It’s a delicious and glowing blend of 50% Superwash Merino Wool and 50% Mulberry Silk that’s luxurious, soft, and gleaming and has 220 yds/201 m per skein. When you combine these fibers into a single-ply yarn, you get subtle differences in tone, as the wool and silk take the dye differently. The colors truly appear to be iridescent!

The shawl sample shown here was crocheted with one Rhetorical Hues Pearlescent Worsted Kit and used approximately 799 yds (730.5 m) total. The original scarf sample was made with two skeins of Glimmer Pearlescent Worsted yarn and used approximately 440 yds (402.5 m) total.

Have a watch! We have filmed a video tutorial for you showing how to crochet this lovely design!
