I've included some links below for instructions on doing a ripple stitch pattern. You can choose any stitch pattern you like and turn it into a shawl. Figure out how many stitches are in a repeat. Make a test swatch to determine how wide a repeat is. Figure out how wide you want your shawl to be and divide that by the number of inches in one repeat to determine how many repeats you need.
A plan, diagram, or model to be followed in making things: a dress pattern. See Synonyms at ideal OR An artistic or decorative design: a paisley pattern. Free Patterns can be found on many internet sites, and are often available from fabric stores and manufacturers.
There are many free patterns available online from yarn companies that will show you how to make an easy crocheted scarf for a child.
http://www.bearycheap.com/free%20patterns/patterns.html This is for a fur rabbit but I am sure you could adapt it for sewing.
First, you need to make a chain of 24 stitches. (or however many looks like a good fit by putting the chain around your wrist) I always chain loosely, making it easier to work back in the stitches later. Chain 1 and turn. Next, working in the back bumps of the chain, single crochet in all the stitches across. (A teacher showed me that working in the bumps on the back of the chain, gives you a finished edge on the end of the piece.) Chain 1 and turn. Then, double crochet in all of the stitches across. (I like using double crochet for this piece. It's a longer stitch, so it gives a little wiggle room in the warmers, but not too much where all the cold air would come in.) Chain 1 and turn. Make 11 rows of double crochets, chaining 1 and turning at the end of each row. (Add more rows if you want it to go further down your wrist. I suggest making the one for your other hand now, just to make sure they are the same. Then finish them at the same time. After the 11th row of double crochets, chain1 and turn. Single crochet in all the stitches across, again creating the finished edge. Chain 1, then cut the piece free, making sure to leave a tail to sew in later. You should now have a rectangle piece, that can be wrapped around your hand.
First, make a chain that is three stitches longer than the number of double crochets you want in your row. Bring yarn once over hook from the back to front; skip the first three chains from the hook, then insert the hook into the 4th chain. Hook yarn and draw it through the chain stitch into the working area of your hook. You now have three loops. Hook yarn and draw through the first 2 loops on the hook. You have two loops. Hook yarn. Draw yarn through both loops. When you reach the end of the row, make three chains before turning to start the next row. This chain three counts as the first double crochet of the row.
