In this step-by-step crochet shawl video tutorial, we'll learn how to make a simple asymmetrical puff stitch scarf from the free Rising Tide Shawl pattern.
This crochet shawl video tutorial is part of a collaboration with my friends at Lion Brand Yarn. This post contains affiliate links.
Last week I shared the free Rising Tide Shawl pattern and today I'm excited to show you exactly how make this easy project step-by-step. Don't be intimidated by the asymmetrical lacy look of this shawl--it's the perfect almost-mindless project to toss in your bag for doctor's appointments, kids carpools and lunch breaks.
Because it's made from two skeins of affordable yarn from Lion Brand (Mandala Baby and Ice Cream), this quick project makes a perfect inexpensive gift idea.

Who Is This Crochet Shawl Video Tutorial For?
I think the Rising Tide Shawl is a particularly good pattern for less-experienced pattern readers to practice alongside because it's fairly short and concise. Part of learning to read patterns is just figuring out how all the sometimes complicated-sounding crochet lingo actually translates to the simple crochet skills you might already know. With that in mind, I recorded this video tutorial to try to best explain both the written pattern as well as the simple repeats that result from it.
This crochet shawl video tutorial is perfect for:
• Confident beginner crocheters who want to make a scarf that looks way more complicated than it is.
• Visual and auditory learners who like to see and hear things explained.
• Anyone who thinks a puff stitch is scary and complicated. (Which was about 18 months ago! 🙂 )
