It didn’t take long to knit and I had it in the mail before I took a photo. When Taylor received the package she called me to say thank you. I asked if she would like one in purple as well (since I had the yarn) and we agreed I’d make a second one.
I finished the second one today and I’ll get it off in the mail to her tomorrow.
In an effort to use up some of my yarn I’ve been knitting Prayer Shawls for the Reformed Church of Powell River. The Guild meets at this church, both for our meetings and our bees.
I like the pattern on this one, but I found I was bored with it before I was finished. Have I mentioned that I hate fringes? It’s all good as I used up another six balls of yarn.
The pattern had easy repeats so it finished quickly. Were I to make it again though I’d leave out the bands of stocking stitch and use the lacy pattern throughout. The yarn is from Pat’s Mum’s stash.
This is the second Prayer Shawl I’ve donated to the church where the Guild meets.
Mum did so much knitting for us, our families, her grandchildren and several charities that this year I’m dedicating my donation knitting to her.
