Shawl


I can crochet things other than granny squares, though ironically, I got the idea for this shawl from a granny square. :) I had to crochet 'half' a granny square to fill in the blanks on a vest I am making and the thought wondered across my mind...what would happen if I just kept adding rows?

I call this the 'goddess' shawl because when it is all laid out, the 'arms' curve up and in like the drawings of seen of the female icona. Made with Bernat afghan yarn, which I had in my closet, waiting impatiently for me to twig on to what it wanted to be.

I like this shawl so much, I'm making a light-weight version with Aunt Lydia's crochet thread for summer.
