Free Pattern: Red Heart Shawl
When I first began crocheting I spent a great deal of time visiting my local library. That seems like eons ago. It was before Kindle apps, crochet video tutorials on YouTube, and well before the Internet was a gateway to any and all information.

It is adorable and you could easily switch the colors or make it in a solid, pastel. I am in the vicinity of needing a beret size 7, so I will pass this one up today, but it is adorable.
