- Hey, my beauty!
We have a new lovely crochet shawl pattern for you today: VILLIERS by Kristina Smiley
www.expressionfiberarts.com/p...
{Prefer to knit? Find our knitted version, Copland, here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/p... }
We used our luscious and soft Sincere Sock Yarn: www.expressionfiberarts.com/c...
You'll need 3 different colors, 1200 yards of fingering weight yarn to make a similar version to ours.
- Villiers is a simple triangle shawl with basic crochet stitches and subtle color changes. It is crocheted from the top down using the magic ring method to begin.
- This shawl is perfect if you are looking for a quick and easy project. The alternating rows of basic stitches and the repeating color pattern provide these elements, while also allowing you to be creative with the size and length.
We hope you enjoy! Be sure to sign up for email updates on the site if you want to be notified when new knit and crochet patterns go live. Many are free for a limited time!

Your tutorials are food to my soul! Thanks, Chandy, for adding a little "piece of your heart" in every one of your videos. My little sister passed (from cancer) at age 19. Her light was as bright and familiar as yours. Thanks for that reminder: every once in a while, we share from each other's light (that was one of her favorite sayings). Her love for crochet brought me to it during the pandemic...and you keep that fire alive within lots of us. Thank you again, you sweet, sisterly spirit. It brings back such beautiful memories...and keeps them alive for me.
I'm so sorry to hear about that, Richard. Yes, sometimes we are meant to share the light and sometimes receive it from others. Thank you for your kind words. xoxo
Do what you want...hollering!!!!! I loooove the boho chic...so urban, so cool.
😂😂 😘😘

Not sure if you mentioned hook size. Hugs from Arizona,Pamela
We used crochet hook size G . 😊
I taught myself how to crochet and I am excited to try this pattern. I also got the knitted version too. Thank you for posting videos showing us how to work the pattern, I love it!
You are welcome! 🧶😘
I'm the old newbie, but I think I can handle the pattern. The shawl looks soft and flowy. By the way, I am starting to look forward to your funny outtakes.
😍😍
Wonderful!!!!! Bye bye from Italy
Thank you! 🥰
You are so beautifull person. May God bless you! ❤
Thank you! You too! 💜🧶
You have such a bubbly personality that makes me want to knit and crochet all you share with us. If I wanted to crochet this shawl but wanted to use a solid or variegated yarn how much yardage would I need?
Thank you so much for all your wonderful teaching.
Hi Anne, thank you for your question. Villiers uses 3 skeins of our Sincere Sock base which has 437 yards. So you'd need 1,311 yards total.
Hope that answers your question. Have a lovely day! 💕
bonjour j'aime beaucoup vos présentations et tout est joli bravo et merci pour le partage
Thank you so much!
Woooow ❤❤❤
Thank you! 💕
Just bought a real splurge of 3 skeins of speckled sock yarn . Now I know why‼️😁
Yay! 💕
Omg you're a life saver! I've been on the hunt for days for a shawl pattern that I really liked and I think this one is beautiful!
*edit*
Idk what in the world I am doing wrong but it is wonky! I am counting all my stitches, using a stitch marker and making sure to start and end with two stitches. I'm so sad.
I'm sorry about that - I would use a stitch marker to make sure you're increasing in the center. :) Let me know if you continue to have troubles!
@@ExpressionFiberArts I'm definitely doing that. And I'm counting my stitches every row. I crochet for hours everyday and can make blankets, c2c, scarfs, graphgans, amigurumi, bralettes and other stuff. I have made a scarf of a cat throwing up a rainbow, idky I can't do this shawl.
@@amaris-uhmariss-barela9118 Neither can I. I just can’t get the straight edge to not curl. I think that I need to crotchet into the very first hole when I turn, not the first stitch. I’ve frogged it 3 times.
@@whatever9770 i was never able to get it. I frogged it and ended up doing a Wild Oleander Hooded Scarf
I can’t do it either ...one side isn’t looking the same and I’m counting everything😢
I absolutely am in love with your bright, corky and warm personality 😍 Of course all your easy to follow videos. I'm a bit new to the fiber world and need some advice why my triangle has turned into more of a football. ☹ I've pulled apart (frogged) and started over 3 times... I seamed to understand the video and I have the written version as well. Wish I could understand where I'm going wrong. Please help🥰
I'm so glad you like what we do. As for what's going wrong with your shawl, if you'll send us a message at www.expressionfiberarts.com/contact-us/ we can help you troubleshoot and provide one-on-one support.
I don't usually give up on a project but at this point I'm so lost with this one. This shawl is so gorgeous and I want to make it but once I finished my shawl, the very center wasn't straight so I started over and tried again and it was the same result so I did it again and again till I lost track of how many times I took it apart and started over I just don't know anymore. You explained very well so it must just be me. Maybe I'll walk away from this for a day and try again.
I'm so sorry you're struggling with this pattern. Please send us an email at info@expressionfiberarts.com, and we can provided one-on-one pattern assistance.
@@ExpressionFiberArts Your very kind thankyou. I'll look at that. In time I hope to improve my work and create beautiful shawls too. Have a wonderful day.
I love the colors picked, they go together so well!
How do you obtain mix-color rows with two colors at the time for the transitions to a different yarn?
Love the pattern! :)
We have a video on how to alternate colors in your projects here: czcams.com/video/P7mIozVya6k/video.html
Ps.....I love all of your hats!!! I'm a hat person too
Thank ya! ❤️
Your patterns have inspired me to start knitting, too... even though I love crochet! Do you deliver yarns to India? Your yarns are so so so beautiful!
We ship worldwide! Thank you so much! 💕
Amazing! Thank you for your videos! I'm starting today. This isn't size specific is it? I would like to start this for a friend who has cancer she is on the plus size a bit would this pattern work?
Sure! You can make it any size you want. It is super easy to customize. You just stop when it is the size you like. ❤️😘
I wonder what's the best hook size for this pattern and sock yarn? Should I go a size up?
The truly best way to know is to make a gauge swatch with the yarn you want to use and compare it to the gauge listed in the pattern. This pattern was designed for a fingering weight yarn, so you should be okay to work with your sock yarn. You can find more information about this pattern at www.expressionfiberarts.com/products/villiers.html
Thank you for this amazing and easy pattern. But when tried it, the side where we add 2 chain before starting the row of double crochet, that side is longer tan the side where there are only single chain before starting the single crochet row. I don’t know why, please help me out
I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you would, please write us here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/contact-us/ that way you can add pictures and show us your problem. Thanks!
Hi! Do you ship to Finland? I love your yarns! So beautiful shades and not what every one else is doing. Feeling so inspired... 🤔😊
We do ship to Finland! ❤️
Hi Chandi, love this shawl! If I choose a variegated yarn and don't want to do stripes, do I still need 3 skeins of yarn or will 2 be enough? Thanks for all your great videos!
We used 1200 yards, so with the yarn we used, that would take 3 skeins. ❤️
ExpressionFiberArts thanks!
@@alisonwiedegreen54 no problem!
Love love love this shawl!! Triangle shawls are my nemesis though!! Reason being I don't know how to identify the loop(stich) I need to work into I the corners of the base of the shawl. The two corners that we start and finish at. Not the center peak. Also when I count my stiches are you counting the ch 1 space stich on the left or right side? Because you should have equal stiches on each side, but it never works for me😞 I hope my questions make sense. How can I be sure I'm counting correctly. Zooming in and spending time on the corners would really help. Love Evey thing you do and I ask you because I appreciate your clarity and expertise. Thank you!!
Jackie, great question! Yes, in this pattern you do count the beginning chain as a stitch! I would just make sure to carefully count each stitch before you proceed to the next row. :)
@@ExpressionFiberArts thank you so much for the response. I just re-read my question and noticed all of the autocorrect errors😂 Thanks again!! 🧶☕
Hi I want to try this pattern. I want to make for summer. Can you suggest maybe yarn without wool?
Sure, you can try cotton, linen, or bamboo yarn. Any fingering weight yarn will do. ❤️
Hi Chandi, I can't tell from the video. Are you stitching into the front loop only or both loops. Thanks
Hi, thank you for your question. You will work into both loops for every stitch of the shawl. When you reach the center stitch, which is the chain 1 space, you will work into this space. Hope this answers your question. 🤗
This is gorgeous!!! Do you know how many yards are needed if I’m crocheting with DK yarn? Thank you. Love easy!!
It would just depend on how large you want to make the shawl and which hook size you use. :) You'd most likely need around 1000-1200 yards as a rough estimate.
Thank you!
💕💕💕
❤️❤️
Hi, first time trying this. My shawl is leaning to the side. I’m using a stitch marker for the chain one space. I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong, or does it end up looking fine?
Nvm I figured it out lol. I was missing the stitch after the chain one. 😅😄
I'm so glad you figured it out!
Hi ! I have the same problem, my center spine always goes on the left (never on the right ^^), so you were missing the stich after you did the center ? so you arrive at your chain one space in the center, you do your increase (hdc, ch1, hdc or sc, ch1, sc) and it's the right next stitch you were missing ? That's right ? Sorry, I'm french language, not sure I really well understand... Thank you and have a nice day
I have a question, I'm new to learning shawl patterns and I've noticed on the ones I'm doing the center is higher like a peak. What am I doing wrong cause I've been following the pattern
It's just the shape of the pattern - you're not doing anything wrong. Thanks for asking! If you block it out, you can reshape it a bit if you like.
Hi Chandi,
As I make this shawl, I find the my triangle becomes uneven and I keep starting over. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong to keep each side symmetrical?
Thank you!
Can you identify where you're at when it starts to get asymmetrical? If you need help with this pattern, you can send us an email at info@expressionfiberarts.com, and our crocheters can assist with troubleshooting.
Can you use 1 color yarn and does it have to be in sock yarn? Love your patterns
You certainly can! You can use whatever yarn you would like! ❤️
How many yards would you say i would need? My mother in law loves the shawl and wants me to make her one
@@shaelyneduran3069 We used about 1300 yards for our shawl.
This shawl, especially the colors, spoke to me! I went right to your site to get the pattern and the yarn ... They are not listed! I am not very good at choosing colors for patterns like this, so now I'm at a loss 😟! Do you have any strong yarn color recommendations?? Help! You are amazing and inspirational ... Thank You!!
I love the idea of chalk, beauty for ashes, and nimbus in Sincere Sock. Or timekeeper, nimbus, and purple crocus in Resilient Sock. I hope this helps a little. ☺️
Beautiful yarn your working with, what is the yarn and colour please?
Thank you for your question. This version is shown in: Tap Root (A), Luminous (B), and Light Elegance (C) Blossom Fingering yarn. We currently don't offer this yarn base however. 💜
Hi! I’m using a stitch marker for my “spine” of the shawl, but it still looks like it’s drifting to one side. I’m about 14 rows deep right now. Will this get better as I go on? I’ve triple checked my stitches but it still feels like I’m missing something.
I would have to see a picture to better assess. Feel free to write me here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/contact-us/ and I will be better able to assist you. ☺️
You are just awesome Mam... Can you deliver the knit in India after the corona crisis get under control??? As here we do not have this type of knit..
We ship worldwide! 🧶
Thank you for this lovely shawl, my query is on the first single crochet row. You increased addind two in one either side of centre spine, but not after in following single rows. Is this right or have I missed it. Meant thanks.
Sonja, hdc, ch 1, hdc is worked at the center spine to create increases. :)
Thank you for replying, think I didn't explain properly, in the first single crochet row before the centre increase which I understand, it looked like you also increased in the stitch before an the stich after. The centre increases. But on no other single crochet rows after. I apologise if I saw what you were doing wrong. 😉
If you’re having trouble with the shape appearing crooked and wonky read this!!! You must work into the first chain on each row, so instead of starting at the first sc or hdc in each row, you will start on the chain you just created. I really hope this helps, it got rid of my issue
Thanks for the suggestion. 🩵

❤️
Can anyone tell me the name of the shawl that is 9n 6he website’s home page? It is purple and black.
Yes, it's our Villiers: www.expressionfiberarts.com/products/villiers.html
Hi I’ve started working on this and for some reason the count is not right and the middle increase was not in the middle, should the middle increase be hdc 1 ch1 hdc Row 3 sc 1 ch 1 sc? It’s a easy pattern and I’m a intermediate to advanced crochet person 😊
Jeanna, yes, I would use stitch markers to help make sure you're increasing in the center!
Can this be done with doing a ring the other way not the magic loop/ring?
Chris, absolutely. :)
Yarn substitute for this would be like a light 3 or medium 4?
Looks like a medium 4 to me
In non-Us terms, I think it would be referred to as a 4.
I've just recently discovered your videos and I absolutely love you. I started right in on this shawl, had to frog and restart with a bigger hook but I am ending up with a diamond shape instead of a triangle, any idea what I did? I'm kind of thinking maybe I pulled the magic ring too tight or something .
Pam, oh possible or there may not be enough stitches - you want to make sure and count that beginning chain as a stitch and work into it as if it were a stitch. :)
@@ExpressionFiberArts thank-you for the hint, I'll recount. And may either start again or have a wonky shawl, lol.
@@pamliebich7238 no problem!
@@ExpressionFiberArts
this is very important and you should have explained that when you made this video. Not going into that stitch ruins the whole shawl. I should know as I’ve frogged mine 3 times and finally worked out why the shawl was curving. Stop showing off and teach properly.
@@whatever9770 Thanks for the feedback! Have a lovely day!
Hi, please tell me how many yards used for this shawl? Thank you.
Sure! You can find all of the details here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/products/villiers.html We used about 1200 yards for the pattern. Thanks!
Just found you, beautiful draping shawls. Do you do any afghans? Some of the patterns would make great throws, but I don't know how to translate to straight rows not triangles, lol.
Katheryn Kennedy just do a test of 20 chains. do a row of double half, then a row of sc. and repeat. don’t do the twice in any stitch (increases) and ignore the spine increase. It will be pretty plain without the triangle and stripes. Once your test piece is ok, just chain as many as you want your piece to be wide and proceed to make your blanket
@@DianeVancouver thank you. I'll give it a try, I'm a way better knitter, but wanting to do more crochet.
We do sometimes! We have a few blanket patterns here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/categories/patterns.html?_bc_fsnf=1&Project+Type=Blankets
👌🙌😄❤🌸🌺🌹💐thank you sweetheart ❗ Love it 😘❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm glad you like it 😍😘🧶
Hello there, I've tried this shawl because I love it so much. I'm a chrocheter more than knitter. I can not figure the problem I'm having. The shawl looks like a "stingray".
I've tried it twice now. Please help me if you can. I'm never giving up.
Love your yarn and your sweet personality.
Sure thing! I think it is best to write us here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/contact-us/ It is easier for us to talk back and forth. I look forward to hearing from you. ☺️
Can we get a print version?
Hi Paulette, yes you can get the written pattern from our website. Here is the link to the pattern page: www.expressionfiberarts.com/products/villiers.html
Enjoy and have a nice weekend! 💕
I love watching you you are sooo adoreable
Thank you so much! ❤️
What size of hook are you using?
US size g/6 4.25 mm is what is called for in the pattern. ❤️
I've tried the pattern so many times with different types of yarn, but it always ends up lopsided, with one side longer than the other :( does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
