Eye of the Storm

Eye of the Storm is a bold, graphic fingering weight crochet shawl with strong lines, sharp contrast, and dramatic movement from edge to edge.

Worked from the top center out, this design grows into a striking chevron shape through six distinct sections — double crochet fabric, back loop texture, open chain spaces, and shaped stitches that create lines moving across the fabric like shifting weather. The result is a shawl with real visual impact that wears beautifully.

The two-color design is where Eye of the Storm gets its graphic punch. A high-contrast pairing gives you something bold and editorial. Two softer shades from the same family create something quieter and more tonal. Either way, the structure does the work.

Fingering weight is the right choice for this design. The fabric drapes the way it’s meant to, the chevron opens up wide and dramatic, and the contrast reads crisp and clear. The sample uses a 100% bamboo yarn for its natural sheen and silky drape — any fingering weight you love will work beautifully here.
