Pondering

I was recently given a pile of craft magazines by a friend who is moving house. Most of them are about quilting, which is not my field - I admire and move on! But a few of them are crochet magazines. This one, called Simply Crochet, has this fabulous shawl. I just had to try the motif out. I don't think this thread is suited to a shawl, but it might work for an idea I saw in another Simply Crochet - a fabric blouse with crochet sleeves. I'll ponder the idea as I work on my tatting and knitting projects.

  2. How marvelous to receive crafts magazines! It's a very pretty shawl, I think it would look good in any yarn weight. I'd go with a long gradient, but that's just me ;)

  3. I like the way the shawl shows light and dark areas. No matter what you make, I'm sure it will be beautiful!

  4. I love getting old magazines I have taken some apart and saved the good stuff (patterns and pictures) in a notebook with clear cover it reduces the stock pile to save room. Look like a lovely pattern there is no stopping you 😁
