Power of a Prayer Shawl
Shawls and Wraps
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.

Blueberry Hill Crochet Shawl
Shawls and Wraps
This pretty shawl is light and airy and can be worn in so many ways! Drape it over your shoulders with the opening in the front or the back. Pin it closed, or wrap the end over one shoulder. You can even bunch it up and use it as a scarf! Lover’s knot designs look complicated, but they're really just a series of long chains and single crochets. The pattern includes a link to a tutorial. The instructions for the main section (not the edging) are provided in both written and charted formats, so you can see how the stitches come together. Because this is lace and is so open, your yardage and finished size may vary quite a bit. It will depend on how springy your yarn is, and how aggressively you block it. Mine grew from 36 x 60 inches to 44 x 72 inches just in the blocking.
Airy V Stitch Cowl
Shawls and Wraps
This light and Airy V Stitch Cowl makes a wonderfully comfortable cowl for those early fall or late spring days where the weather is just changing.
The open V Stitch lace mesh creates a light fabric that can be cool worn wrapped once around the neck, or cozy if you double wrap. I've used just one Caron Cotton Cake for this pattern, but if you prefer to substitute a different weight of yarn, you'll need just around 200 yards.
