Crochet Sashay Shawls
Learn to crochet Sashay Shawls. It's a lot easier than it looks. It's a matter of understanding the slip stitching and what to look for when doing so.
I have provided a step by step tutorial on getting started.
There is a total of 8 rows. Rows 1 - 6, you will skip every other top loop. This will cause the row to double itself as it means there will be 2 loops on the bottom for every 1 loop on top. This technique is what is creating the drape.
Rows 7 & 8, you will not skip any loops on the top. This will prevent the shawl from getting any wider and will suddenly start to grow straight down.

Hmmm... I'm working along just fine. But I've done 7 rows, with double ruffle stitches in each row (I forgot to stop after the 6th row), and I'm STILL on the first ball of yarn. I'll never get to the third or fourth ball. Have I done something wrong?
Chronic Creator says
Well, I finished it, but it took me less than two balls of yarn... Not sure what to do with the other two at this point...
Nancy Bentley says
I am having the same issue, I think I am going to make mine a little longer.
Nancy says
Help,
I am working on my scarf for the third time and I am on row 4 and I am still on my first ball of yarn! Am I doing something wrong?
Mikey, The Crochet Crowd says
no... means you are doing right... We just had to ensure the first ball got you past the 4th row to ensure you won't see any joining of yarns. 😀 Keep on hook'n!
