I finished two more shawls for Christmas gifts. They are all the same exact pattern found here: Angel Wings Shawl. I did make them different lengths depending on the recipient. All 3 are made with Caron Simply Soft, and drape nicely. On the blue shawl, I increased the shells for the border. I did 5 dc in every other ch 1 space, with a slip stitch in the other stitches. I used 7 dc for the V stitches, and 9 dc for the shells. The green shawl is crocheted as the pattern is written, including the border.
All 3 shawls - apparently I tend towards jewel tones!
These are some pictures and notes on my recent crochet projects. As most of these go to charity (Project Linus, usually) I tend to forget the patterns and designs. Most are fleece, with a crocheted edge.

Yarn for Next Project!
This is yarn I ordered from Deramores - super cheap. Free shipping. Very soft worsted weight. I have many plans for these many colors!
Cranberry Shawl
Here is a cranberry shawl I made for my daughter. It was made with Simply Soft yarn and an H hook. The pattern can be found here. I found the pattern super easy to follow, and it crocheted up quickly.
