Prayer Shaw

There are some asking for a easy triangle shaw so I decided to put the pattern on my blog so that the people that are not on ravelry can see it.

This pattern is very easy since i made it as one of my first projects and at that time only knew the e-rap stitch.

I used 1 strand of red heart yarn and one strand of a thin yarn on my shaw.

Large Yellow Round Loom.E-raped 2 pegs.

Knit back to stitch #1.You will increase 1 stitch every other row till all pegs are in use.

Knit 2 rows over all pegs.

Now decrease 1 stitch every other row till you have 2 pegs with stitches on them.

Bind off.I used fringe on my shaw but you could crochet around it if you want.

All finished.

It is said that when you wrap a prayer shaw around you God is wraping his arms around you.

My Yarn Winder

This is a picture of my yarn winder. The yarn is a pounder and you can see I have about 1/2 lb balled and thought you would like to see it.

Laura Mae

This is my new great grandchild Laura Mae. She is named after her other great grandma and great, great grandma. I wish I lived closer to them as they live 100 miles away and don't get to see her very often.

Isn't she the sweetest little thing .

Her mommy Sarah Mae is my first grandaughter/grandchild.

As you can see the sacque I made her is so big on her but guess that is better then being to small on her lol.

Since I made her circle baby blanket blue and white I guess I will have to make one in a different color. Good thing I joined in the loom along for the pinwheel blanket. Will be fun knitting with others doing the blanket. I found a great site for doing the edge arround it on another blogsite and saved it so i could do it on another round blanket. I like the pointed edge and think i will use that one on mine. What do you think?
