Adding the Fringe
Cut 50 strands of yarn, each 20" long. Fold a strand in half, insert the folded loop through an end stitch, pull the loose ends through the loop and tighten to form a tassel. Repeat across the ends of the shawl. For a fuller fringe, use additional strands per tassel.
Finishing Tips
- Weave in ends securely and trim tassels evenly.
- Blocking: Lightly steam or wet-block to shape and soften the drape if desired.
- Hook size and personal tension will affect final dimensions; this shawl is forgiving, so adjust length by adding or subtracting Suzette stitch sections as needed.
That's it — enjoy wearing your Crochet Elizabeth Shawl!
