I just finished crocheting this shawl using Crocheted by Carisse yarn. I used a 4mm Pony Soft Ergonomic hook from Oh My Yarn. I used a granny shawl pattern from YouTube, and just worked it from there.
I actually started making this last April, during the beginning of the lockdown. However, I had to make earsavers for medical frontliners, so this shawl took a backseat. But that didn’t mean that I took it for granted, as this shawl balanced out the pressures of earsaver deadlines.
It became an outlet for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed crocheting it. It gives me hope to finish this shawl, that I can still fulfill deadlines and focus on tasks at hand. I know that crochet may just be a hobby for some, but for me, it’s a way to adjust to life’s challenges. I am thankful that I have this passion, and I hope that you can also find something that helps you live life better.
