Product Description
The Memory Bank Shawl is a symmetrical triangle, increasing in size with every one of it’s (only) 41 rows. It’s a very versatile piece to style, and looks great in speckled, tonal and solid colour yarns. It would also be an ideal project for mini skeins or scrap yarn.
It’s economical on yarn, interesting, fun & quick to make.
There are 6 pages to the download and the working of this design is best suited to those with a reasonable amount of experience. I say this mainly because some of the stitches are worked into the front or back loop of the stitch in the previous row, instead of into the complete stitch. These areas, although few, require a little more dexterity and patience.

What Is Being Made
The Memory Bank Shawl is an advanced crochet design created by Good to Go Knits Designs. This shawl measures 152cm long with a depth of 77cm at the centre point, making it a substantial wrap suitable for layering and warmth. The design was created as a tribute to meaningful friendships and special milestones, with the shawl serving as a wearable keepsake to commemorate important relationships and life moments.
Crochet Techniques and Construction
This advanced-level crochet project employs sophisticated shaping techniques to achieve its triangular silhouette with precise measurements. The construction method creates a garment that deepens from the cast-on edge to a defined centre point, requiring careful attention to stitch placement and tension throughout the project. Advanced crocheters will appreciate the technical skill required to maintain consistent gauge and execute the shaping increases that form the shawl's distinctive proportions.
Stitches and Stitch Work
While specific stitch abbreviations are not detailed in the provided pattern information, the Memory Bank Shawl utilizes crochet stitches appropriate for creating an elegant, wearable wrap. The advanced difficulty rating indicates the pattern likely incorporates varied stitch techniques and possibly intricate stitch combinations that require experienced crochet knowledge to execute successfully.
Yarn and Materials
This project is worked in DK weight yarn, a medium-light yarn weight that provides excellent drape and definition for shawl construction. The DK weight allows for detailed stitch definition while remaining lightweight enough for comfortable wear as a shawl or wrap. Crocheters will require an appropriate crochet hook sized for DK yarn, typically in the range of 3.5–4.0mm, though the specific hook size should be verified against the full pattern gauge specifications.
Pattern Details
The Memory Bank Shawl pattern is available as a downloadable PDF from Good to Go Knits Designs, an independent designer. This format allows crocheters to access the complete instructions and any accompanying charts or stitch diagrams immediately upon purchase, making it convenient for both digital and printed reference during the project.
