Finishing: With yarn needle, weave in all loose ends. Sew the pockets to the shawl with the same yarn and large needle. Make sure the pockets are sewn following the shawl’s pattern line and facing the wright side up.

Fringe: Once the shawl is complete add the fringe using the same yarn and the hook. Cut 17” length fringes and divide into groups of 3. Fold the fringe group in half to form a loop. Draw the center of a fringe group through the edge of the shawl, using the crochet hook. Thread fringe tails through the loop and tighten to secure. Repeat for each group of fringe.
