Honeycomb Shawl

For this Honeycomb Shawl, we are using the Tunisian Honeycomb stitch. This stitch is a fun, textured stitch that is mindless once you get going. If you are new to Tunisian crochet, or the Tunisian Honeycomb stitch, I encourage you to visit this video tutorial before diving in. This is a great opportunity to learn a new skill set while making something beautiful in the process.

I am participating in the 2020 Furls Blog Hop, which means that this pattern features products all from Furls. I have absolutely fallen in love with the drape of this yarn and the stitch definition. I’m not gonna lie, I was a bit skeptical of the raving reviews before having worked with the yarn myself, but it’s true. The weight of the shawl and the way it is almost cool to the touch, with a great sheen… simply lovely. I hope you love it too!

Materials:

Whims Merino DK Yarn (lightweight – Blue colorway pictured)
-approx. 725 yards without tassels (4 skeins)

Tunisian Crochet hook in size J/6mm

Gauge: not crucial

Measurement (before blocking): approx. 64″ along widest edge

Measurement (after blocking): approx. 88″ along widest edge

Helpful notes:

If you have never crocheted the Tunisian Honeycomb stitch, watch this tutorial before getting started.

Always place your Tunisian Simple Stitch in the Purls from the previous row, and always place the Tunisian Purl Stitch in the Simples from the previous row.

Each row for the first half of the pattern will always, always (yes always) start the same, but the last stitch of the row will always be opposite of the one before it.  For example if you end one row with a Tunisian Simple Stitch, you’ll end the next row with a Tunisian Purl Stitch. The same is true for the second half of the pattern.

YO = yarn over. This is how you increase in Tunisian. For the first half of the shawl (while increasing on the right side only) make sure you’re not skipping the increase (yarn over) from the previous row. It is slanted and can appear hidden. It is, in fact, a stitch!

TSS2TOG = Tunisian Simple Stitch two together. This is one way to decrease in Tunisian crochet. Insert the hook under both of the next vertical bars before pulling up the loop.

Row 2: Skip first vertical bar. YO, TSS in next. TPS in next, TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (4)

Row 3: Skip first vertical bar. YO, TSS in next. TPS in next, TSS in next, TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (5)

Row 4: Skip first vertical bar. YO, TSS in next. TPS in next, TSS in next, TPS in next, TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (6)

Row 5: Skip first vertical bar. YO, TSS in next. TPS in next, TSS in next, TPS in next, TSS in next, TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (7)

Row 6: Skip first vertical bar. YO, TSS in next, TPS in next. * TSS in next, TPS in next * repeat between * * to end. TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (8)

Row 7: Skip first vertical bar. YO, TSS in next, * TPS in next, TSS in next * repeat between * * to end. TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (9)

Rows 8 – 99: alternate previous two rows. (101 sts at the end of row 99)

Row 100: Skip first vertical bar. TSS in next, (no increase this time) TPS in next. * TSS in next, TPS in next * repeat between * * to end. TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (101)

And now we start decreasing for the other side…

Row 101: Skip first vertical bar. TSS2TOG, * TPS in next, TSS in next * repeat between * * to end. TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (100)

Row 102: Skip first vertical bar. TSS2TOG, TPS in next. * TSS in next, TPS in next * repeat between * * to end. TSS in outside two loops of last st. Backward pass: Chain-1, * yarn over, pull through two loops. * repeat between * * to end. (99)

Rows 103 – 197: alternate previous two rows. (4 sts at the end of row 197)

Row 198: Slst2tog, sl st in next st, sl st in outside two loops of last st. (3)

Fasten off and weave in all ends on the body of the shawl. (I like to leave the beginning tail and the ending tail for securing the tassels.)

Cut your remaining yarn for tassels (here’s my favorite method). Attach tassels at each end of shawl, and weave in all ends. You are done!

I hope you love your new Tunisian Honeycomb shawl, and the Whims Merino yarn. When you’re finished I’d love to see a photo of yours. Tag me by using @HeartHookHome on Instagram and Twitter, or share in the Heart Hook Home Crochet Community on Facebook.

    I’m working on the decrease for this beautiful shawl and I’m confused by the stitches. I’m on row 99 (101 stitches) and Beginning the decrease, but after TSS2TOG I end up on a purl stitch, but directions say “TPS in next” which puts a purl in a purl stitch. Is this accurate, or have I messed up somewhere?

      Hi! Did you accidently skip row 100 which is just a straight honeycomb row, no increases or decreases? Decreasing starts on row 101. I hope this helps!

    Hi! I love the texture of this shawl, and can't wait to try it. However, I'm new to Tunisian crochet. My Tunisian hooks are about 10 inches long. Will they work for this project, or do I need longer hooks? Thanks!

      Hi Pat! You will be fine for most of the pattern...it will just be for the middle part when it could get tight squeezing all those stitches on, but honestly, I think it is do-able.

    i love your pattern that I saw via Furls Blog Hop. As you say your pattern is free is there a way to print it without the ads? No only does printing the ads waste paper it makes the pattern info smaller on the page. Sincerely
