Leave a long tail to use for joining the squares.

Line up your squares in a single line. Using a whip stitch or other favorite join, connect the squares together.

Join Squares

Line up your squares in a single line. Using a whip stitch or other favorite join, connect the squares together.

Border

Next, we’ll add a single crochet border around all the joined squares. Join yarn in ch-3 space in one of the starred corners (see diagram) and 2 sc in the ch-3 space.

Working around, place 1 sc in each st, 2 sc in each ch-3 space along the sides, 1 sc in each join, and (2 sc, ch 1, 2 sc) in each ch-3 space in each corner. When you reach the corner where you started, 2 sc then join with a sl st to the first sc. Do not cut yarn.

As you work your ribbing in the next step, you’ll be working slip stitches into the single crochet border to join the ribbing as you go.

Ribbing

Ch 12,

Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch, join with a sl st in the next sc of border. (11)

Row 2: Sl st in the next sc of the border, turn, sc BLO in each st, turn. (11)

Row 3: ch 1, sc BLO in each st, join with a sl st in the next sc of the border. (11)

Repeat Rows 2 and 3 until you reach the other end of the shawl ending on a row 2 repeat. Do not cut yarn (this will be used to add an additional sc border along the bottom of the shawl when both sides of ribbing are completed.)

Using a different skein of yarn, join yarn on the opposite side from where you just ended. Follow Ribbing instructions to create ribbing for the other side.

Bottom Border

Ch 1, sc in each st across the bottom. Fasten off and weave in ends (66).

Repeat for the other side.

Pockets

Follow the instructions for the large squares up to Round 9 and make 2 pocket squares.

Line up the pocket so that the middle of the pocket granny square is directly on top of the middle of the bottom granny square of the shawl. Using a whip stitch, join 3 sides of the pocket to the shawl, leaving the top open. Fasten off and weave in ends.

Repeat for the other side.

Fringe

Cut 140 strands yarn approximately 13 inches in length. Holding 5 strands of yarn together at a time, add fringe to each corner and every 5th stitch.
