My stories of jewelry making, spinning, knitting, and all things fibery.

A Labor of Love






This crocheted wrap was truly a labor of love. Very fine 100% cotton thread and a tiny hook were used to create each square motif in this a pattern that was adapted from a 1950's table runner. The squares were then crocheted together and an edging was added.


Today it will be blocked and stretched into a gorgeous finished garment that I am not sure I will be able to part with. Originally it was intended to be sold in my Etsy shop, but I'm really getting attached to it...
