Step-by-Step: Learn How to Crochet the Easy, Beginner Friendly Corner-to-Corner (C2C) Fale Shawl!

[@nicolenoel9056]

Oh wow this is beautiful. Never thought that a C2C could be so beautifully rendered in this way. C2C was my first time crochet when my mother taught me to do a blanket. I had never crochet before that and from there I tried to learn from magazines of patterns that I liked. My mother never learned how to read patterns, it was taught by her mother. So she was impressed that I was able to learn just by looking at pictures in the back of the magazines that showed the crochet stitches.

Never tried pattern

[@gadgetgirl5399]

My grandmother taught me to crochet and knitt, and I have been doing so for many, many years but I'd never heard of the C2C stitch. I love the pattern, will download very soon and can't wait to try it! In this month of November, so grateful for the beautiful ideas, yarns and sentiments you bring us weekly! ❤❤

[@nadineskewes1492]

I’ve never tried corner to corner, but the colours you have shown here are enticing me 🤩

[@stitchaspellMilan]

This is such an interesting pattern and the yarn is stunning. I’ve crocheted c2c blanket before, but never combined with another stitch. This is definitely on my to-do list! Thank you! 🦋

[@margaretgrubb-eg7zl]

This si beautiful, I have never crocheted the C2C stitch, but I am game for trying new stitches. Thanks so much for your kindness and beautiful smiles ,not to mention your talents

[@Selena-T629]

I've never tried c2c but this old hat is ready to learn something new. My Mom taught me to crochet when I was about 10 and I'm 63 now. Thanks for posting this and have a wonderful day 😎

[@cindynoble3999]

This stitch is one of the first slightly more complicated stitches a friend taught me when I wanted to make a baby blanket for a new grandma. It made it so fun and easy once I got the hang of it. I love this shawl pattern and can’t wait to learn how to do the lacy sections.

[@karenaemrich6253]

Thank you for this opportunity. Those colors are absolutely gorgeous. I have never attempted to conquer the C2C stitch but this pattern and the yarn are making me rethink! Thank you again.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

You can do it 💙

[@shawnabullock8181]

I adore your videos. I made the boho shawl while on vacation and can’t wait to try this one.

[@traceyjohnson3874]

I watched your tutorial twice to make sure I got it right for my first ever corner to corner project. Your hands on easy to follow instructions helped so much, I’m now on my way to finishing my project which is turning out amazing! Thanks to you I can see crocheting as a realistic hobby! ❤

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

💙💙💙

[@wendyroithner1071]

I have made a few corner to corner items. One was a blanket. The Sea Glass yarns hues are absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for all these fabulous patterns and delicious fibers!

[@ringnsing4121]

I have never attempted the corner to corner technique, but now am inspired to try it! Thanks for this helpful tutorial. ❤️

[@rebeccajwilliams]

Beautiful pattern, and pearlescent fingering is my favorite yarn! I haven't done corner-to-corner, but am excited to give it a try.

[@MaryDaly-kp2od]

This is beautiful. I have done a C2C knit but I have never tried C2C crochet. I have been confused by each demonstration I have seen. Thes are the first jnstruction that have made sence. Thank you so much for the pattern and the wonderful instructions. I love the sea glass colors but the mum hues would look amazing. The colors are wonderful

[@brasileiroviajante]

Those colors send me to the beach in an instant! So beautiful!! I've never tried the corner-to-corner, but I have a feeling it's going to become a favorite!

[@LeeAnnWagner-k9w]

I made a temperature blanket in a C2C stitch and fell in love with the stitch. Love this shawl pattern and the variation of the stitch.

[@jennshobbynook5826]

I love how airy and light this shawl looks. The color is beautiful and I love how it looks wavy. Have a great week.

[@thehollyalderson]

What a beautiful shawl! I love the corner 2 corner stitch. I use it often to make graphghan baby blankets.

[@kathyfulton1576]

I'm still quite new to crochet and have not yet tried corner to corner, so this will add another stitch to my knowledge base. I appreciate your clear instructions. I really need to see someone do it rather than just reading about it, so your videos are very helpful.

[@Zylophila]

I'm in love with that pattern! Just when I think I'll finish the Rainier, I'd rather make this gorgeous shawl! Right now after I down load the pattern and watch the video again. I love the lacy sections. Wowza!!!! The colors are breathtaking. You know how to make my so happy! Thank you so much Chandi!!! Love and hugs!!!

[@CraigsOverijse]

That colour is amazing really love it

[@colleenmarceau2639]

I have seen corner to corner crochet and knit patterns but have not tried it yet. I was thinking for Christmas that I may make cotton face cloths as gifts and I see corner to corner for that. It really does give a beautiful effect to the fabric. Jennifer has done it again with a wonderful pattern!

[@KrisJanonis]

I have made at least 8 full sized blankets, a dozen or so baby blankets and several scarves using C2C stitch. It is a stitch that works up well and can easily be done while watching TV or on a road trip. Thank you for sharing this lovely pattern and for all you do.

[@renaweatherspoon6710]

Hi Chandi. That is an absolutely beautiful shawl. I have never tried corner-to corner but it has been on my to-do-list for a while.

[@MoniqueD-yf6do]

This colorway is absolutely stunning and boosts this pattern up another step. I have done C2C in the past. Another amazing design to add to my make list. Thanks to the pattern designer, to you Chandi, and to your team ❤.

[@lynettewykes9923]

I have never tried corner to corner before so I look forward to trying. Love the colour of the beautiful yarn. X

[@umgambl6]

I've never tried a corner to corner stitch, but definitely want to try this. Love the colour and flow!

[@Honeybee-Hedgehog-Designs]

Everything you present is aesthetically and visually stunning. Thank you for the time that you take into making all of these videos and for the instructional tutorials I’ve tried to see to see in the past didn’t really like it, but it looks fabulous in this color way and yarn.

[@cathysh7634]

What a neat pattern. I've never tried this pattern of C2C. It is lovely and I like the light to dark back to light gradient.

[@dburris1440]

Beautiful shawl! I really enjoy the C2C pattern. I have made several lap blankets with this pattern to donate. It is quick and easy!

[@Tpayne524]

My grandmother taught me c2c to make baby blankets ages ago but I always love fresh takes on the basics. I can’t wait to try it and make all kinds of different things ❤

[@shanta_2009]

lovely pattern and yarn colors! i have not worked on c2c before, this is a new to me crochet style, will definitely make this shawl as i love rectangle shawls! tysm for generously sharing new patterns free every fridays, it makes my weekends!

[@candicereschke1920]

Love the ease of your tutorial. I had not heard of this stitch. I am starting the shawl post haste. Thanks for the quick lesson.

[@shereecarey9781]

I do know the stitch but never crocheted using it. I love adding the lace section giving it an elegant look along with that beautiful yarn!

[@helenstreetman]

This will be the first time crocheting a shawl for me. I just found your channel and love your work. Your yarn is beautiful. I am now knitting a shawl from. One of your video.

[@LJH4718]

This is my first time with C2C and you make it look so easy - I'm very excited to make this shawl! Love everything you do and all the amazing yarns.

[@jilllovesbeegees70]

I have made a similar pattern. It is easy and classy . Love love the sea glass color and pearlescent yarn . Great choice .

[@KathyGolden-w3e]

Hi Chandi, this is a beautiful shawl. It makes me want to try C2C again. When I was younger, I did try C2C. I made a hot pad with a heart in the middle. I enjoyed it, but I was a very tight crocheter back then. I love the lacey look of this!

[@robyncameron5138]

I love making the C2C , it's super-easy, and crochets up speedily. Pot-holders, rivets, coasters, and I've even made large panels and crocheted them together to make a large blanket for our caravan! Your yarn is gorgeous to work with also! Thanks so much!! Cheers

[@LorenMarieP]

Beautiful colors and shine in that yarn! Never tried this technique but it’s a beautiful airy piece that would be a great summer garment

[@janicpanny]

Oh my, the yarn and shawl is gorgeous! I’ve done one C2C blanket, but it was a different stitch pattern. Love it!

[@NYDBW]

I haven't tried it, but I'm excited to learn C2C, and what gorgeous yarn! Thank you for your sweet nature and beautiful patterns and yarns.

[@kaylapedone4500]

I've never done the corner to corner stitch. Looks amazing in those colors! I love hunting for sea glass, and these colors and this pattern really makes me want to go beach combing!

[@EvieO1950]

I’ve done placemats, scarves and throws in C2C. Thus is a nice beautiful change up to what you usually see. Those colors are amazing and my favorite!!!

[@farahtabibi3515]

No I haven’t done corner to corner stitch pattern. But it seems easy once you know the rules of crocheting. This a gorgeous shawl that took my breath away!! I will make one in red for the holiday season. Your story resonates with me because that is how I used to learn patterns, keep it in my mind and knitting on a swatch and save it in my stash. I have the pattern swatch collection from over 30 years ago. Thank you so much for this yet another beautiful shawl and tutorial. Take care❤️

[@danabveggie9888]

Beautiful shawl! Yes, I used corner to corner, I made a blaket and a triangular shawl. I love it 😊

[@haruejules]

Thank you for another beautiful pattern!!! My favourite shawl is made from one of your yarns using this stitch all the way. It is so cozy!!! I have never, however, combined the C2C stitch with an airy lace pattern so this looks really fun to crochet and fresh!!

[@kim4083]

I love it! I have worked with this stitch to make a throw blanket, and it is easy and relaxing once you get in the flow of it. She chose beautiful colors for this design!

[@jaxles12612]

This shawl is gorgeous; will have to give it a try. I’ve never crocheted a C2C. Thank you

[@vbailey667]

I have done a blanket and see to see before, but this is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you both for offering this pattern as it is unbelievably beautiful.

Soy de Argentina , tengo 60 años y tejí desde los 8 años y nunca supe de C2C ... Es genial . Tengo q practicarla ❤ Los hilados un sueño 🎉

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Thank you! Enjoy!

[@theMermaidRhonda]

I love the C2C stitch! When I first saw it I couldn't figure out how it was done, but it's so easy! It looks so intricate and beautiful. Those seaglass colors are stunning! Blue is my fave color and I love the ocean and have a small collection of sea glass I've picked up on several different beaches. This shawl is gorgeous!

[@SharJoyC]

I’ve never tried corner to corner. This is a stunning pattern to do it with and the yarn and color is absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for this beautiful pattern.

[@JuanitaFarnan]

This is gorgeous but I have never done anything like this corner to corner. Absolutely love the icy & cooling colors. Thanks for all your beautiful yarns

[@evelyngonzalez5223]

I love shawls, and this one is absolutely beautiful. I like how the C2C design looks, but I never really had the courage to try it. I guess the time has come for me to give it a try. Thank you for always sharing your beautiful work. Have a great weekend❤

[@mariedesoto1767]

I have made many blankets in C2C, but not anything as flowing and elegant as this shawl. Fale is on my to do list after my holiday gifts are completed. Thank you so much for this lovely pattern.

[@bethrogers5656]

What a beautiful way to to C2C. Have made baby blankets with this method. Thank you to the designer and you for offering this pattern, and chance to win the yarn!

[@19snoozer56]

I have made many C2C blankets over the years. The colorway chosen is gorgeous. It would go beautifully with my blue eyes. LOL

[@debbiepower3844]

Beautiful shawl and gorgeous yarn! I've done c2c a few times and I enjoy it. I really like how varied all the patterns are so there's something for everyone whatever their skill level

[@bettinajahn6648]

I never saw this stitch anywhere before.... the shawl is wonderful - no surprise here because it is made of pearlescent fingering and the colour is divine. I love crocheting with this yarn, made already 2 Tees and 2 shawls with it.

[@w.j.1306]

What a beautiful pattern! Yes, I've made the corner 2 corner stitch into blankets. This is definitely a must for me to make.😮

[@bethpartridge6191]

I have done corner to corner for blankets but not a shawl. I love the lace sections combined with the corner to corner. Will definitely be trying this pattern.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Woohoo 🩵

[@10lizal]

I have made a corner to corner blanket before for a friend. Love the lacy look of this shawl! I think I have purchased this yarn before and it works up beautifully.

[@susanfortner8427]

As a long time crocheter I had never heard of the C2C stitch until a few years ago. I have played around with this stitch as I found it very interesting, but I haven't actually made a project yet. This shawl may be my first C2C. Thank you so much for all you do!

[@elisecreations]

I have never tried the corner-to-corner crochet and it looks like something I'd like to try, especially in these beautiful colors. It's amazing that everything looks so gorgeous on you.

[@iveypizarro1093]

I really love this pattern and yes, I’ve tried the corner to corner stitch pattern. I love you so much because it works up fast. I believe I’ve done two blankets with that stitch. It’s amazing and to add those little details the shawl is so beautiful thank you . ❤❤❤

[@stephanie7736]

I recently used a C2C moss stitch for a blanket I'm working on. I've been considering making shawls and this one is beautiful! So it is one i will think about making after I finish the blanket for my young brother.

[@friedaunderwood9431]

I have never tried the corner to corner stitch. Thanks for this tutorial and the beautiful new pattern. I can’t wait to try it.

[@ladybirdkay5862]

I've done one C2C blanket for my grandson in black and gold - his favorite colors. I love this design which makes it look much more complicated than it really is. So eye catching.

[@tinahairston6383]

Yes, I've done corner to corner for a scarf but I've also done C2C granny squares! Lovely pattern! Thanks, Chandi and Jennifer!

[@susisanders1097]

I haven’t tried a corner to corner pattern yet, this beautiful shawl convinces me, I will try with ‘Blue Hydrangeas’ I bought a few months ago..Thank you Chandi & Jennifer Matlock !❤

[@RosemaryMarkovich]

Absolutely a lovely shawl! I can see myself wearing it on vacation with my husband, walking barefoot along the beach after dinner under the moonlight with the ocean breeze in the air. On another note, I learned the corner to corner pattern years ago, and made stadium blankets for my kids and niece using their school colors. I even donated a stadium blanket in school colors for the band raffle when my kids were in high school. The winner was much appreciative! Adding the lacey section makes it just so next level elegant and the added use of a larger hook to open up the stitches more...I can't think of a better warm weather elegant look. To do piece for myself list item #1 has just been found. 🙂

[@MarthaBurtis]

C2C has been an intimidating stitch for me, but I will finally attempt it with this beautiful pattern and the yarn it’s just breathtaking. Thank for sharing this tutorial.

[@melissalabrecque5163]

You have the best videos!!

[@GailL0266]

I have not yet tried the corner to corner pattern - it looks like a lot of fun ..... your pretty colours just enhance the pattern so much.

[@sheilanetti3161]

Gorgeous shawl! I’ve never made a corner to corner shawl or blanket but I’ve always wanted to give it a try.

[@amandadamour2434]

I have never tried corner to corner patterns the colors are beautiful ❤

[@chriskramer7004]

I've never done that diagonal in a crochet pattern. But this is so lovely and the airiness of the shawl is really gorgeous. Colors are great too!

[@jilltomlinson4422]

Absolutely beautiful. I've never tried corner to corner crochet, but am going to give it a try.

[@ladickinson1]

Oohhh I’m so excited you’ve done this tutorial! I’ve read a little bit about C2C but haven’t yet attempted it. The shawl you showed along with the yarn is so beautiful, I’ll save up and make this my next project. Thank you for this tutorial and all your others. Oh, also, I love your emails, they’re so cheery and uplifting, thanks for those too!

[@elizabethgasca2095]

I love love love the C2C stitch. It’s so easy to learn and repetitious. BUT WHEN I SAW THE LACE INCORPORATED INTO THE PATTERN 😮 i immediately downloaded the pattern. I can’t wait to start on it. Thank you Expression Fiber Arts and all your designers.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Woohoo, have fun with it 💙

[@Ellie_Stark]

Love the design, it looks beautiful! I've never done the corner to corner stitch before, but it seems fairly ok to do. I do already use a size hook up from what is recommended because i crochet rather tightly and stitches don't always get the nice look they should unless i go up a size. Sent someone this way recently upon learning they loved to crochet, i hope you're here and enjoy the pattern too. 😍

[@bonniedurie3050]

I've never tried corner to corner, but look forward to doing so. I am mesmorized by the sea glass color. I look forward to this project. Great teaching Chandi! Continued blessings!

[@Laureiane.C]

I completely haven't tried the corner-to-corner method. As a beginner in crocheting, this is now added to my growing list of crocheting stitches, methods, & techniques. Thank you for showing and teaching us this technique. Your channel and, expression fiber arts in general, truly is a gift to us young crocheters who wants to expand our crochet knowledge. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING ✊💗

[@jenniferwlasniewski8089]

I have tried c2c before. I was not successful, but that was a long time ago when I was still learning to crochet. I'll have to try again! This shawl is so cool.

[@janetcannonteacher]

Congratulations, Jennifer, on another gorgeous pattern! I've made a couple of C2C projects, but have been wanting more. This is beautiful and perfect!

[@arlenelewis7975]

LOVE this shawl...and the video is excellent for learning this great C2C stitch which I have yet to try

[@lhm178]

I have never done a crochet corner to corner, it looks fun and very versatile! 🩵

[@ashleydonohoe7941]

I finished mine yesterday. I love it so much!!

[@VampyRagDoll]

I have only tried one shawl, I’m still making it. I’m making the cassia shawl from yourselves for my sisters wedding and I love it. So now I’ve never done c2c but because your tutorials are so easy this could very well be my next.

[@VampyRagDoll]

I wish the lace part was in the video because I’m a visual learner 😢

[@VampyRagDoll]

Maybe you could build a private link on how to do the shawl with the lace into the pattern so only those who have it can see it.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

I'm sorry about that. Unfortunately, we're not planning on adding additional videos. Sorry! 🩵

[@HelloAlinaLai]

Corner to corner stitches looks great! I haven't done it, maybe it's time to apply it.

[@protophotogsl]

I have seen many patterns using the C2C stitch, but have not yet tried it myself. Thank you for the video tutorial.

[@susy-adryannafielsch2387]

Thank you for another beautiful pattern! Watching you crocheting this in a variegated colorway has me thinking a single variegated colorway would be gorgeous as well. Yes, decades ago I crocheted something (an afghan?) in this C2C stitch. It was fun. Maybe it’s time to do another C2C project. Thank you for all the gorgeous colorway choices and all the yummy yarn bases 😍

[@stephaniedockter5975]

Have made many corner to corner blankets,but that lace pattern is amazing! Can’t wait to try it.

[@eadie_stl]

Such a beautiful shawl! I've not tried C2C, but now I really want to because the shawl is just gorgeous 😍

[@Kayemwhy]

I made on C2C blanket. It was fun to make. This shawl is a nice innovation.

[@taliya2009]

We knitters deserve a knitted version of this gorgeous shawl!

[@Islandflower66]

Wow, I've only made blankets with the c2c technique. I can't wait to expand my skills by making this gorgeous shawl. I love rectangular shawls. They don't seem to fall off my shoulders. Thanks for the tutorial, as always! You rock Chandi!❤

[@ibelisseperez2693]

I’ve never tried this stitch but have always wanted to learn. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@norjarichardson3135]

I have never heard of corner to corner stitch. I’m intrigued so will be trying this out and buying some pearlescent yarn. Thank you

[@letharoark918]

I love this pattern and the beautiful yarn you picked. My favorite colors. I really like doing the C2C stich. It seems to go really fast and you can watch TV without having to concentrate to much on your hands.
