Shawl





Finished today. My current favorite stitch, the corner to corner. The yarn is from my stash. I don't remember buying it. I think I just wanted to try this Caron Simply Soft Light. It is 100% acrylic, rated #3 Light. Size G hook was recommended and that is what I used. I'm estimating I used 7 oz. The color is called Bubblegum. I just found the edging pattern on Facebook this morning. It was posted by another crocheter, who wove ribbon above the ruffle of five double crochet shells. I'll give it to the Peace Prayer Shawl Ministry.

Another Sampler afghan

I just finished this sampler afghan from Afghans For All Seasons leisure Arts 1993. The yarn is the self-striping Magic Light yarn from www.iceyarns.com in Turkey. It is my favorite yarn at this time. Will give it to the Prayer Shawl Ministry at Peace Church. I probably will buy more of this yarn -- soon.

Meringue Stitch Baby Throw




I finished this last month. The picture with the baby is the picture from the pattern. The yarn is white Simply Soft. the pattern  is from Yarnspirations. When I saw that picture, I had to make one, even though I didn't have a baby in mind that could use it. I posted in an Etsy shop I created called Made For You by Nana. Last week I learned that Megan from the choir had a baby girl, so I hope to give it to her.
