    What a beautiful shawl! I have a couple of skeins of this yarn, but not enough to make this particular shawl. Thank you for mentioning Crystal. I checked out her channel’s play list and found a category for shawls made with sport weight yarn and, guess what? I found pretty pattern that I have enough yarn for😊 You are very special and unique! Thank you for sharing with us. - Melissa

      Ah, I'm so glad you've felt inspired to put this gorgeous yarn into a shawl - and another of Crystal's patterns, too! Out of curiosity, which one did you choose? 💗💗

      It’s her Taste of Honey pattern. It’s a simple but lovely shawl pattern that won’t eat yarn. I’m using Berroco Millefiori in the color hyacinth. I’m a threads of love volunteer at my church. We have an elderly population in our town and minister to our seniors who reside at the assisted living center in town. I think I had bought the yarn to make a couple of scarves for them. When I find a beautiful yarn (or fabric), I buy extra knowing I will find another project😀

    The first attempt of this I was on.
    The number 4 and I was so upset and frustrated. I threw it away and I threw all the yarn in the garbage with it. Then I picked so I'm trying the second time. It's frustrating

    • @slowcrochet
      @slowcrochet  6 місяців тому +1

      I am glad you rescued the yarn - but I know the feeling when a project is so frustrating I don't even want to look at it. Sometimes when feel that way, I make even more mistakes, and it just makes it worse. I'm glad that Crystal left the videos up so we can revisit them at our own pace. If there's one thing I learned from her, it's that a little fudging is okay, just so long as both sides have the same counts as one another. I hope this second time gives you more joy! 💞💓

    Your yarn selection is gorgeous, wow. I love it.
    I attempted this, but my yarn choice wasn’t great. Bamboo. I crochet via tutorials. Patterns confuse me. lol I think I’ll attempt with something like you used. It’s gorgeous. New subscriber.

      Wow, welcome and thank you! Yes, Crystal is exceedingly generous with her talent and heart! We are so blessed by her! Believe it or not, I've never crocheted with bamboo! I hope that, if this shawl wasn't it, that you'll find the right project for your yarn! 💓💞
