Still crocheting!!

It's been so long since I wrote that I doubt anyone will see this post ... but here it goes!

Currently I am working on a prayer shawl ~ I am using the pattern by Lion brand w/ their Homespun yarn.
I Love this pattern!!!
The one done entirely in hdc working on 42 stitches across ~ word of advice ~ make sure you use stitch markers in each end stitch so you don't have to frog!! Also if you are not familiar w/this yarn use a good strong light over your shoulder that shines directly on your work. Since this pattern calls for a large hook (N) the stitches are a bit easier to "see" then when working with a smaller hook ~ unless of course you crochet tightly!
I have made this shawl many times & have always loved the ease of making it with one modification ~ I rarely fringe anything! So I often sc around the entire shawl or better yet reverse sc around. Some times I will make tassels & place them in the corners.

Another thing I will be working on are several items for charity. Mostly baby items that are small, fast & easy to work up. When I pick the patterns I will share my views here so stay tuned if you want to know what I am crocheting :)

Since I last wrote I decided to separate my daily life views from my craft blog and have started another blog where I will share my journey w/ any one interested to read about me, my life & my opinions.
