I get a little sad each year around Mother’s Day. I had a wonderful mother and I miss her
terribly. So this year, I decided to
design a shawl in her honor and offer it for free as my Mother’s Day gift to
everyone. You can download your free
copy on Ravelry by following this Ruthie's Sunshine link.
I wanted this rectangular stole to be an
easy, watch-TV-while-you-crochet type, or pack-and-go project. Even though this pattern has an
easy-to-remember one row repeat, the combination of stitches gives an interesting
design with lots of texture.
The first
half of the shawl is crocheted completely, and then the yarn is joined and the
second half is worked. There is no
sewing involved, and each half is a mirror image of the other. The length of the shawl is easily
adjusted. There are written instructions
and helpful charts.
You will need to
know how to read instructions or charts, join yarn, chain, double crochet, half
double crochet, and work into a starting chain.

Happy (early) Mother's Day!
