One "big cake" triangle shawl scarf (crochet pattern)

[@melodied4314]

I appreciate that you started the video by showing how the shawl will be worked. I wish all presenters would include this info. I like to know where I'm going. I love the color combo of your yarn selection.

[@wendysumner8899]

Just finished this scarf/shawl today with Big Cakes in Blueberry Scone!!! Thank you for this tutorial!!!

[@1117kristina]

[@SpoonsHooks]

Thank you Kristina! :-)

[@lollas3651]

Thanks a lot for this beautiful shawl, and for the pattern on your blog it's really very helpful

[@aprilmcarthur4250]

I love how your videos start with the stitches I need to know! It sure helps!

[@hischild828]

Thanks so much for great instructions and I sure did appreciate the close caption. Will check out your site and hopefully show my very first shawl.

[@SpoonsHooks]

All - In response to the feedback I've received, I've posted a slower version of this tutorial which you can see at kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYPLdaOVjMyheqM (time: 8:20). My goal is to produce truly helpful videos, so I welcome your feedback.

[@lyndapierce2333]

Great pattern,thank you so much❤️❤️❤️

[@SpoonsHooks]

I'm so happy you like it!

[@alanaglover0718]

Wonderful tutorial! So easy to follow. Thank you

[@SpoonsHooks]

Thank you for your kind words Alana! :-)

[@maryrivera4839]

thank you for sharing your pattern

[@Septcrafter]

Thank you. I was wondering if you crocheted into the chain one spaces, so I went and read through the pattern. Can’t wait to make one for a christmas present. I am using the color tiramisu

[@terri-tn9858]

Thank you, this is so pretty! Hope you will do more tutorials. In the future, maybe slow down just a tad though. My printer isn't working at the moment and I have to depend on tutorials for the pattern, so a bit slower would be helpful!

[@SpoonsHooks]

Terri - I've gotten that feedback from others and will slow down in future videos. I'm still new at this. In the meantime, there are photos with the written pattern: spoonsandhooks.com/2017/09/22/one-big-cake-shawl-scarf. Hope this helps.

beautiful and easy :) thank you

[@rosiegutierrez6907]

Very pretty would like to see more..bkankets tec 😊

[@elvahwilliams7648]

Hello I have tried and retried doing this along with you, but after you stopped and we had to repeat the rows mine keeps going into the shape of a bell not a triangle. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Oh well on to finding another project, but i did like this.

[@philomenameyer3812]

Very pretty.

[@elvahwilliams7648]

Hello again I have to say I got kinda confused following along with you. On the solid row you said put one dbl on top of each dbl from the previous row, but on the written pattern there it says to also put a dbl through the ch1 space . Now that I am doing as the written pattern says My shawl scarf is going into the shape of a triangle so by doing a dbl in the ch1 spaces on the solid rows am I doing this correctly?

[@SpoonsHooks]

Yes, that is correct. You should see this in the photos included with the written pattern.

[@gamingkenneth4585]

Question. My cake ball said use size 5mm(h) hook. Should I use the hook you said to or what the yarn says to?

[@SpoonsHooks]

Hi Iris - As I describe in the blog post that accompanies the written pattern (spoonsandhooks.com/2017/09/22/one-big-cake-shawl-scarf/), while the label calls for a size H (5mm) hook, I felt that was too small for this pattern because the resulting fabric was too stiff. Through experimentation I found that a size K (6.5mm) hook worked much better. However, feel free to experiment and figure out what works for you. Good luck!

[@Septcrafter]

How many rows did you do to make the example?

[@SpoonsHooks]

The finished shawl scarf shown in the video has 36 rows.

[@Septcrafter]

Spoons & Hooks thank you. Row 36 would be the solid row of double crochets?

[@SpoonsHooks]

That is correct - even-numbered rows are always solid rows. Did you see the written pattern linked in the video description, spoonsandhooks.com/2017/09/22/one-big-cake-shawl-scarf?

[@MamaSwede]

This goes way too fast and not being told what every stitch is. This for a beginner like myself unable to do this. I put it on as slow as KZbin lets me and watched and rewatched over and over and still messed up as it looks nothing like a triangle in the beginning.

[@harshadabhide4053]

wow

[@susanscandles]

Pretty pattern but moved so fast I couldn't follow, even after replaying many times. 😔

[@SpoonsHooks]

Did you look at the written pattern that was linked in the video description? That might help: spoonsandhooks.com/2017/09/22/one-big-cake-shawl-scarf/

[@retagorman2589]

Spoons & Hooks I watch videos cuz I can't read patterns.

[@liziking306]

I agree. It's way too fast for me too. I've already tried rewinding it so many times and I'm still having a hard time following. I can't read patterns as well. :-(

[@1117kristina]

She isn’t fast at all

[@LadyYarn]

I am visual learner and I agree, the speed ups are annoying and difficult to follow. 😕

[@keressabeverage2622]

Lovely scarf, the video made me dizzy....

[@SpoonsHooks]

Keressa - thanks for the feedback. Although I've made a lot of videos in general, I've only made a few crochet tutorials and am still experimenting with techniques. In the meantime, you can see the written pattern with still photos at spoonsandhooks.com/2017/09/22/one-big-cake-shawl-scarf.

[@keressabeverage2622]

Spoons & Hooks awesome, thx, and keep up the good work! Thx for the pattern too!

[@carmenogarra8092]

To fast

[@SpoonsHooks]

Carmen - that's why I published a slower version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYPLdaOVjMyheqM

[@aidalinacmihalek9453]

Very Pretty However you move to fast n you instructions and you show work to fast hard to keep up not good sorry you are speed ing in the beginning .

[@SpoonsHooks]

Aidalina - There is also a slower version of this same tutorial at kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYPLdaOVjMyheqM.

[@hischild828]

I actually liked the speed altho I have crocheted and very simple stitches. Thanks again

[@kerryelizabeth726]

I have a question if I was to do this stitch in a 10mm but I only have 355 yards do you think it would be big enough

[@SpoonsHooks]

Kerry Elizabeth - you need 1000-1250 yards of yarn for this pattern. See the written pattern at spoonsandhooks.com/2017/07/22/granny-cardi.
