Beatriz Pop Shawl: Start crocheting

This asymmetric shawl is worked from one corner to the opposite edge, and increases by one st on each row. We recommend blocking before weaving in your ends to avoid ends ‘popping’ out of the work. Unless otherwise stated turning chains do not count as a stitch.
