Crochet 2 Cake Shawl
This simple Caron 2 Cake Shawl is a variation of the Nightberry Shawl that I crocheted last month. My friend Megan McHugh really enjoyed the stitch pattern of the Nightberry, but preferred a rectangular-shaped stole design. Megan reworked the pattern and crocheted hers using 3 balls of Bernat Pop yarn. I like crocheting with Caron Cakes and was able to make mine with only 2 Cakes. Either way, the long color repeat creates a really pretty shawl.
The rectangular shape drapes nicely around the shoulders, but also can be worn around the neck for a thick scarf for the winter. This cake shawl would also be perfect for your charity giving to comfort a loved one or as a prayer shawl.
Finished size is 22″ x 64″

There wasn’t a download for this pattern but I have created one for you and also included a bit blue button for you to see it easier. Sorry, not all of our patterns have downloadables. This article now has one thanks to your feedback. – Michael

Can you make this pattern as a granny strip pray shawl
You probably could.
I liked the article but it would be nice if there was a link to download the pattern as a PDF file.
I enjoyed stitching the Nightberry Shawl so much but like your friend I used Bernat Pop and it took about two and a half cakes because I altered the pattern slightly to make it more “plus-size”. It was the first thing I’ve ever made for myself and I am really enjoying the warmth it provides.
Love the stole & just happen to have two lonesome cakes that need a project.
I also have 3 Caron Cakes without a project. This is going to be it. I have Pumpkin Spice and it will be perfect. I’m finally making something for myself!!!
What is the stitch count if I want to change the width? Is it 3’s or 3 plus something?
Multiple of 3 + 2 (1 dc on each end).
