Yarn Along :: Completed!
Joining Ginny at Small Things for another Yarn Along …
This week, I set out to finish one of my WIPs before starting anything new. And I actually did it! Hooray! =)
I finished my prayer shawl. After nearly one year of knitting it on and off … and on and off again.
(Here is my 10-week-old son modeling what a cozy prayer shawl this really is!)
The pattern is from Knit Along with Debbie Macomber: Back on Blossom Street. And the yarn I used is Patons Shetland Chunky Tweeds in Sea Ice.
I will be donating it to a local convent that gives prayer shawls away to ill members of their community.
As for books, I haven’t read anything this week. I meant to start The Forgotten Garden, because it was my turn on the request list at the library. But I just didn’t have the time to sit and get into it. I don’t know if I will start it—let alone finish it—before I have to return it. (And of course there is no renewing it, because the request list is very long, I am sure.)
Well, that is about all. Not too exciting, but I am very happy about finishing something that had been on the needles for so long =)

beautiful shawl and baby!
Good for you! That's a good feeling…I had the same feeling when I finished up a sewing project last night. 😉
Shawl? I better go back and look, all I saw was a cuuuutte baby!!
What a pretty shawl, fit for such a precious baby!
Your prayer shawl turned out really nice and your little one is just precious.
Beautiful! [and the shawl is very nice, too!]
Hmm…my word verification is "silly"…does that say something about me, or about you?
Just beautiful and he's pretty darn sweet I must say 🙂 So good to finish things!
Your prayer shawl is incredible. I knit and know how difficult it is… I am a beginner. To see your little man surrounded by the prayer shawl you made is just priceless.
Feel free to visit my blog anytime.
I love your baby giving that shawl all the more life to be passed on to someone else. The church we will be moving to in Virginia has a prayer shawl ministry I am hoping to participate in. I am hoping to knit a baby blanket soon.
I'm trying to finish WIPs, too. It's a good feeling to finish one–the shawl is lovely. And that baby–too sweet for words!
Beautiful shawl…looks store bought! BABY = SOO CUTE! Look at him! Growing nicely, just like his buddy over here, who is currently snoozing on my arm.
Beautiful shawl with a beautiful baby on it 😀
Beautiful shawl and an adorable baby!
Your shawl is just lovely but your baby boy steals the show.
Blessings, Elizabeth
OH! it is beautiful!! Good job! Oh and the blanket is cute too. 😉
