We have a wonderful collection of beginner patterns that will help you develop skills as you become comfortable with the craft. Create beautiful things as you discover the joy of crochet! Why not practice your stitches on the [Moonlit Shells Shawl](2FM0EzgnXWPgtAUPbJ4MkkJPYi9T%2F8cf6%2BcD7p8%3D)? The simplicity of this shawl is deceiving because it looks like a complex work of art! Moonlit Shells is designed by I Like Crochet favorite, Jennifer E. Ryan, and it's just the thing to brighten up your little black dress. Jennifer combines two simple stitches, double crochet shell clusters and chains, to create an openwork wrap that appears much more complex than it is. The combination of DK-weight yarn and a large hook (size K!) gives this shawl gorgeous drape and airiness; the key to this is the chain work between the shell clusters. The open nature of the stitch pattern lends itself to all sorts of wardrobe choices, from sun dresses to winter wear, casual to fancy.

I want to join the Gold Club!](2FM0EzgnXWPgtAUPbJ4MkkJPYi9T%2F8cf6%2BcD7p8%3D)  Speaking of fancy, Jennifer gilded the lily on this one, adding teardrop beads to the picot points all around the edging of the shawl. This beautiful detail makes Moonlit Shells perfectly appropriate for a bridal shawl. Work it up in white with iridescent beads and present it with pride to the bride. What an amazing gift. Consider the [Moonlit Shells Shawl](2FM0EzgnXWPgtAUPbJ4MkkJPYi9T%2F8cf6%2BcD7p8%3D) if you're a beginning crocheter; you'll use stitches you already know, put them together creatively, and end up with a fabulous finished piece. It's a great first-shawl project! [Subscribe now.](2FM0EzgnXWPgtAUPbJ4MkkJPYi9T%2F8cf6%2BcD7p8%3D) Build your skills with more of our beginner crochet patterns! Here are some great ideas to keep you stitching and learning: An easy repeat pattern makes the [Honey Spice Scarf](2FM0EzgnXWPgtAUPbJ4MkkJPYi9T%2F8cf6%2BcD7p8%3D) a breeze to crochet! Blocks of color make up this shawl, so it's easily customizable—go bright or subtle, regal or neutral.
