In reply to Ruth. Ruth, I think we may have gotten a bit mixed up. There is a mandala style yarn that is a size 3 yarn from Lion Brand, but it is also called "Wool Ease". It is not the thick and quick most people think of. Unfortunately, Lion Brand discontinued the line since I've written the post. You can still find some for sale on Etsy Here. But really any size 3 yarn should give a similar result. Be sure to check your gauge if the size of the finished shawl is important to you. I hope this helps :-) Thank you for your comment! ~Caitlin

I think I have it right…you said in your email newsletter that you use Lion’s Mandala yarn but here under materials it says Wool Ease which is not a #3 wgt uarn and also doesn’t have these colors nor is it named for gods and goddesses.So I’m betting it really is Mandala. Is that correct. It’s a great pattern by the way. I love it

Thank you so much for sharing your patterns and life with us. I look forward to the evenings so I can read your emails, it’s like reading a fav book, a chapter each night. Can’t wait till I can read the chapter of baby joining you and hubby. Be safe and bless your heart!

In reply to Michelle. Michelle, Unfortunately, I do not have a video at this time. There are several videos on youtube teaching crossed treble crochet stitches, most of the videos cross one treble stitch with one treble stitch post. My pattern calls for a set of 2 crossed with 2. To work the stitch you skip the first two stitches. Work one treble crochet stitch into each of the next 2 stitches. Then you work 1 treble crochet stitch into each of the skipped stitches. So you are working a total of 4 treble crochet stitches. I'd recommend reviewing the photos while you are working the stitch. Good luck! ~Caitlin

Do you have a video? I have just started to crochet. I’m having trouble with the fctc in row 2. I have gone to you tube but can’t find how to do this stitch. When you go back and do the tc stitch in the 2 skipped stitches. Do you do the 1st skipped stitch 1st or the second? I can’t seem to get mine to look like yours.

Oh, now I get it. Thanks very much for the clarification and thanks for the beautiful pattern. It’s a lot of fun to crochet. I’m using Mandala yarn and the color is Mermaid. You’re very creative. Thanks again for the pattern.
