Breezy Shawl Complete


I think the shawl turned out very nice. I did notice that the yarn is part wool so when it is washed, it must be laid flat to dry or it will shrink up in a dryer. Oh well, that will be the problem of the recipient. Guess I'll have to include washing instructions. Usually I put a yarn wrapper in with some extra yarn just in case. I am working on the lipstick/ranch red sweater that I started a few weeks ago. It is coming along nicely. And, I finished up some bits of yarn by making a hat/scarf which will appear in the next post. Both turned out quite nicely but are for no one special. Guess they'll go along to the assisted living facility. Maybe one of the folks can give it as a gift to their grandkid. Other than crocheting, I'm enjoying the spectacular weather we have been having. It is like September with mid 80 degree temperatures and very little humidity. Makes me want to get out in the hammock! Back to the yarns.....
