Angel Wings Shawl Pattern

Here's a shawl pattern I've written within the past month or so.
It's called the Angel Wings Shawl pattern and this name was chosen from about 50-60 names that were suggested to me than voted on by the amazing people over in Crochetville. My home away from home.




Materials:
Approx. 16 ounces of yarn of choice (more if yarn is bulky)
Size "J" crochet hook
Tapestry needle
Note: Any of the above is optional. That’s just what I used.

Special Stitches: Beg Shell, Shell, V St
Shell: (2dc, ch2, 2dc) in space indicated in pattern.
V st: (dc, ch1, dc) in space indicated in pattern.

Note: When told to Shell in Shell, or V st in V st, that means to Shell in the ch2 space in the middle of the Shell st, or V st in the ch1 space in the middle of the shell st.

You will always Shell in the Shells, and V st in the V sts.

Make loop (magic loop or ch3, sl st in first ch to make loop)
Row 1: ch4 (counts as dc, ch1), (Dc, Ch1) 4 times, Dc in loop, turn. (5- ch1 spaces, 6 dc)

Row 2: Ch3, (dc, ch2, 2 dc) in next ch1 space, ch1, V st in next ch1 space, ch1, shell in next ch1 space, ch1, V st in next ch1 space, ch1, (2 dc, ch2, dc) in next ch1 space, dc in top of ch3, turn. ( 1-shell, 2-V sts, 6-ch1 spaces {including ch1 in V Sts})

Row 3: Ch3, shell in next ch2 space, *ch1, dc in next ch1 space, ch1, V st in next V st, ch1, dc in next ch1 space, ch1, shell in shell*. Repeat from *to*. Dc in top of beg ch3, turn. (3- Shells, 2- V sts, 10- ch1 spaces {including ch1 in V sts})

Row 4: Ch3, shell in shell, *(ch1, dc in next ch1 space) 2 times, ch1, V st in next V st, (ch1, dc in next ch1 space) 2 times, ch1, Shell in shell*. Repeat from *to*. Dc in top of beg ch3, turn. (3-Shells, 2- V sts, 14- ch1 spaces {including ch1 in V sts})

Row 5: Ch3, shell in shell, * ch1, dc in each ch1 space to next V st, ch1, V st in V st, ch1, dc in each ch1 space to next shell, ch1, shell in shell*. Repeat from *to*. Dc in top of beg ch3, turn.(3- Shells, 2- V sts, 18- ch1 spaces {including ch1 in V sts})

Repeat Row 5 until desired size. For edging you’ll want to end with an even number of rows so shell edge will work out correctly.


Edging: ch1, turn, sc in first dc, 5 dc in shell, sl st in next ch1 space,* (3 dc in next ch1 space, sl st in next ch1 space) to V st, 5 dc in V st, sl st in next ch1 space, Repeat from ( to) 1 time, 7 dc in shell, sl st in next ch1 space, Repeat from (to) 2 times, 5 dc in shell, sc in top of beg ch3.
Optional: If you’d like you can sc across the end of the rows.
Fasten off yarn. Weave in ends.
