Scallops & Shells Shawl

Hello to all my long lost friends!

So sorry I have been absent here lately ~

My dear Mother In Law,

who is 87 and lives next door to me,

has been very sick :(((

I spent one week in the hospital with her

and am now looking after her at home.

She had acute pancreatitis

and

went into heart failure at the hospital.

All prayers are appreciated!

Her name is Pat.

During all those hours of hospital time,

I managed to finish my

Scallops and Shells Shawl.

The pattern is in

Serenity

A Crochet Collection

by

Knit Picks.

I used

Gloss Fingering

{70% Merino Wool, 30% Silk}

yarn in a lovely dusty {almost silvery} purple called

Velveteen.

This yarn was wonderful to work with

and feels nice and soft.

And more to the

point ~

the finished project is very lacy

&

Oh

So

Feminine.

I hope you are all happy and healthy.

I will spend the next several days,

while we have this nearly 100 degree heat snap,

catching up on all of your blogs.

Blessings,

Danette
