"My friend Diane is a true romantic. She loves life, and chooses to be happy. A few years ago her husband, Will, was diagnosed with brain cancer. Because her laughter and positive attitude have been so influential to me, I prayed that she would not lose her laughter, even in the midst of the storm. My Love More Wrap was inspired by all the things Diane has taught me about love. LOVE OFTEN LOVE DEEPLY LOVE INTENTIONALLY LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY LOVE MORE.…"

Winter Storm Scarf
The Winter Storm Warning is the perfect time to relax by the fire, and crochet something warm for when you do finally have to venture outside again! The Winter Storm infinity scarf was designed and crocheted on one such long weekend, and it was the perfect piece to set the mood for a stormy, snowy winter. This pattern was designed with Lion Brand Ice Cream - with it's shades of grey and white, it reminded me of the layers of snow and clouds in a winter storm, making it the perfect yarn to use for this pattern!

The Storm Ridge Wrap is an easy, beginner friendly wrap that's the essence of coziness. Worked sideways, from tip to tip you can easily adjust the size to your liking. Named partly for the beautiful blues in Red Heart's Roll With It Tweed yarn and the crochet ridges created by the blo (back loop only) technique. I love how the yarn does all the color work for me and that means less ends to weave in-win win!"
Power of a Prayer Shawl
Prayer Shawl We all have friends in need. Sometimes the friend just needs a hug or an encouraging chat over a cup of coffee. Most of us benefit from a reprieve from the daily grind and having a friend to laugh with can go a long way. But sometimes a friend needs more - when that friend is walking through a dark, sad, or scary time; what many of us call “the valley.” Obviously, the person experiencing a trial is the one with the difficulty - but sometimes knowing how to be a good friend can be hard too. We don't always know what to say. We don't want to be trite, or too serious. We want to be there, but not over-bearing. Some of us also have a tendency to shirk away from very emotional situations. A tangible gift has a powerful impact and offering something personal can help with healing. I love giving a prayer shawl that represents everything I wish, hope, and pray for that individual in the midst of trouble. And not merely a shawl you would find in a store or in a pattern book, but a personalized crocheted fabric that wraps a friend in symbolism. The symbols you choose will depend on your beliefs and the beliefs of the person receiving the shawl. The purpose isn't religious proselytizing; it's blessing someone going through a hard time.
