Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Crocheting

Type of item: Clothing

For: Women

Style: Casual


Materials

I used 50 diffrent colors of Shetland wool

What was your inspiration?

I had a sample of 50 different colors and used it to make 35 different flowers. Since my mom would turn 70 I decided to make her a spelcial shawl. The crocheting in between was on top of my head, and it turned out nice and assymmetric. My mom was very proud.

What are you most proud of?

That I started (and finished!) a project in time, and that it is truly a one of a kind shawl

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Let the colors and material inspire you

The flowers (70) are a tawashi wash cloth, it must be here somewhere, although I have to translate it first. The shawl itself was out of the blue, I just started around the neck and made bows. I'll be at my moms next week and have a quick look to be more specific. I'll getback to you
