What is a good size for a triangle shawl?
The ideal size for a triangle crochet shawl can vary depending on personal preference and intended use. However, a common recommendation is for the shawl to have a wingspan (width from end to end) of approximately 60-80 inches and a depth (from top edge to bottom point) of 30-40 inches..

Instructions
Ch 4, Slst to 1st to form a circle Or use the magic circle method
Row 1: Ch 4 ( dc+ch1 here and through), (V st, ch3, V st), ch1, dc1 all in the same circle, turn work
(V st + Ch3 + V st) forms the center of the triangle- we will work the same pattern on each row to maintain the center.
Both sides from the center must be identical.
Row 2: Ch4, dc1 in 1st ch 1 space, skip next ch1 space, ch 3, (V st + ch 3 + V st) in next ch 3 space( the center) ch 3, skip next ch1 space, V st in last ch1 space, turn
Row 3: Ch4, dc1 in 1st ch 1 space, ch 3, Vst in next ch 3 space, ch 3 (V st + ch 3 + V st) in next ch 3 space( the center) ch 3, V st in ch3 space, ch 3, V st in last ch1 space, turn
Now we will work our stitches only on the ch 3 spaces + the center
Row 4: Ch4, dc1 in 1st ch 1 space, ch 3, Vst in next ch 3 space, ch 3, V st in next ch 3 space (V st + ch 3 + V st) in next ch 3 space( the center) ch 3, V st in ch3 space, ch 3, V in next ch 3 space, ch 3, V st in last ch1 space, turn
