Finishing
It is very beautiful and very well explained . Thanks you.
ReplyDeleteJust finished this shawl. Turned out beautiful but I ran out of yarn so I had to order another skein. I used the same hook size and yarn as specified and worked the same number of stitches specified in the pattern, but my shawl turned out a couple of inches wider. I used about two and half skeins of Red Heart with Love for this project without fringe. So you may need a little more yarn than is recommended.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your beautiful crochet pocket shawl pattern. It's wonderful to see such creativity and talent in the crafting community.
ReplyDeleteHowever, as a conscientious consumer, I feel compelled to bring up the importance of ethical sourcing and responsible production in the textile industry. It's heartening to see that even large retailers like Walmart are taking steps towards sustainability with Walmart airbed policy which sets standards for environmentally and socially responsible production.
This is gorgeous! I just finished it. Went much quicker than I anticipated!
ReplyDeleteHi! Thank you for this pattern! I have just started it as a Prayer Shawl for my cousin. Her 37 year old son just passed away. I "wondered about this before I actually started crocheting. Now have several rows finished, and what I thought could be a 'problem' looks like what I thought would happen, The fpdc in the row "under the sc" will not be the same "height" as the dc being crocheted in the same row. So, the end sections that have this are more narrow on the ends vs the dc in the center. Did you stretch the ends to make them equal? I had thought maybe a fptc...??? I am pressed for time to get this completed, so I really do not want to take apart and start from scratch.... Thanks for any help.
ReplyDeleteYou can block your shawl at the end. This would stretch the narrow ends.
