This 30" parasol is done in one of my favorite patterns that offers intricate work and a good level of sun coverage. The colorway begins with pink at the center which transitions through peach to teal, then purple, and finally to blue.
These photos were taken indoors and the video is pulled from my Tiktok where you can see me make this and many other parasols @StitchyFrood
This parasol has a steel main shaft with a straight handle and plastic fittings for the top, handle, and arm tips. The opener is manual and care should be exercised to ensure the arm tips aren't caught in the crochet mandala before opening.
It's not an umbrella so it won't keep the rain off your head, but this parasol will diminish the sun's rays and help you look whimsical.
