Slanted Cluster Elegant Crochet Wrap Pattern

Jump to Pattern

This beautiful and elegant crochet wrap pattern is worked up in a lacy and textured stitch pattern known as the slanted cluster, or the bead stitch. The shawl is worked in a super fine yarn, which makes it ideal for wearing throughout the year.

A pretty textured and lace wrap draped over the shoulders. The wrap is wide and long, allowing for many different styles.

It’s the perfect wrap for the summer as it adds a bit of warmth without overheating. It’s nice and wide to go over the shoulders to protect you from the sun, but can be worn many other ways as well. I just threw it over the shoulders, but if you have a shawl pin you can pin it in place any way that you like.

In the winter you can bunch it up like a cozy winter scarf.

The Stitch Pattern

The stitch pattern used in this elegant crochet wrap pattern is the slanted cluster, more commonly known as the bead stitch. The stitch is basically a puff stitch worked around the base of a double crochet stitch. It looks complicated, but once you make it a few times it is actually very easy to make! If you have any problems, there’s a video below the pattern.

One thing that I struggle with when working it in this super fine yarn is that it tends to slant upwards a bit when you pull the yarn through all the loops. You’re supposed to keep the stitch loose so that it resembles a bead sitting over the double crochet. But as long as you’re consistent with how your stitches sit, the end result is going to be beautiful!

Another thing I should mention is that as you’re working this stitch you’ll notice that it causes the fabric to slant. However, it’s easy to block that out, especially in a cotton blend.

About the Yarn

The yarn used is a super fine cotton/acrylic blend. It is easy to work with and results in a beautiful drape. It is a self striping yarn with three shades that blend together for a beautiful outcome. It is shown here in a gray tone, but other bright and lively colors are also available.

Yardage is awesome! so you only need one skein to whip this up.

I love the big blocks of color. But if you wanted to get creative you could cut the yarn at the color changes and work it up in a solid color. Or even do your own striped design! That would require more than one skein, but it would be so worth it!

Possible Yarn Substitutions

  • Big Twist Yarn – Graphic
  • Regia – Cotton Denim 4-ply
  • Cestari – Rainbow Fingering

These are a few yarn substitutions that you might want to try for something slightly different. Just so you know, I have not worked with these yarns, but they seem to be similar in gauge as well as in material contents.

With that said, gauge is not important for this wrap as you can make an easy adjustment to your length and width as outlined in the pattern.
