Double Hug Prayer Shawl
This is the Double Hug Prayer Shawl made using the pattern found in Crocheted Prayer Shawl Companion, The: 37 Patterns to Embrace, Inspire, and Celebrate Life that I recently purchased after borrowing from the library.
I made this one using Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn that I had in my stash. I found the Granny style pattern easy to work on and quite relaxing. Having a pattern that I didn't have to check constantly was great when went got to crochet/knitting group meetings. My doll patterns tend to be too complicated to share socially and get anything productive finished.
My pictures are still not quite where I want them, but I think hanging the shawl is an improvement over my first attempt to photograph a shawl.
I have my third shawl over half done. I am enjoying exploring this new type of crochet project. I already have yarn lined up to work on some additional projects.

That's a really pretty shawl that you have knitted :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting. Sadly, I can't knit much more than a dishcloth. I am grateful that I can crochet.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty shawl! I wish I could knit, and sew. My sister sometimes works with me to get a few things done that I have ideas for.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting. I am not much of a knitter. I just got a friend to use her sewing machine to hem some items for me. I think for now crocheting is my best bet for completing projects.
