The Yarn’s Journey
© 2010 All Rights Reserved
By: Tish Hoar
As the yarn's journey starts,
It becomes a prayer that comes from the shawl maker's heart,
The yarn becomes a journey of silent prayer,
Through it's twists and knots, the prayer is still there,
The quiet clicking or the swish of the yarn,
Tells you the prayer is still going on,
The Shawl maker adds on another skein,
The prayer is anew and doesn't wane,
As time goes by and the shawl maker's mind sometimes wanders,
The yarn goes on and prayerfully ponders,
A prayer is said and the stitching subsides,
The yarn comes to an end and is knotted and tied,
It begins a new journey and given with prayer,
It's Hope, Faith and Love the recipent wears,
But in the silent echoes you can prayerfully hear,
The prayers, the quiet clicking, and the swish of the yarn,
The yarn never ceases and its silent prayers are still going on...

Last Supper Filet - 3rd Progress Report - Jan. 6 2010
I am back working on the filet project. Trying to do at least one to two rows a day. So far so good. The project itself isn't hard but it is very time consuming.
On row 100 - out of 279 rows.

Last Supper Filet - 2nd progress report-March 2009
Pattern from Annie's Attic. Started November 7 2008. Size 10 thread.
Tip: In order to keep where you are: Take a magnetic board, like with cross stitch and mark your row. I use a sticky note two rows below to keep track of where I am. Why two rows below? So I can see the stitches under the row I am stitching. Also helps if you sticky note an arrow in the direction you are stitching.

Started November 7 2008. Size 10 thread.
TIP: If you are starting the pattern keep safety pins where you are, put a tab so you know which side you started on and what row.
Triangle Prayer Shawl Pattern

This pattern is an easy to intermediate pattern.N hook.2 skeins of 7 oz. Red Heart super saver yarn (728 yds- some do end up using 3 skeins)one safety pin or stitch marker that you can move every other row or so.
Stitches:v-stitch – Dc, chain 1, Dcshell stitch- 5 Dcmiddle shell stitch – 7 Dc
Note: put safety pin in middle shell. Doing this every 3 or so (whatever makes you comfortable) rows so you know when the middle shell is coming up is easier. After I started doing this. I had to frog less often.Keep track of starting and ending stitches. the chain 4 always counts as one dc and one chain one. The dc in turning chain after completes a v stitch for the beginning. to end rows, it should always have a v stitch to end with. The stitches always goes up to the middle shell then repeats backwards for a mirror image of shawl, in a way of a pattern. After row 20, a repeat of 3 different rows will continue to the end.

Working towards the last row, go down in ch-1 sp of the first row and come up in ch 1 sp of the next row. Continue weaving up and down in each ch-1 sp across. Run needle through the slip stitch on last row. Pull the row so the shawl does not pucker.
Row 2: Do the same with main color, but alternate the up and down weaving with the other row before.FRINGE working across one end, tie a knot with the first three strands ( 2 strands front the first row and one strand from second row)tie a knot with the next two strands ( one strand from the second row, one strand from third row) Continue til all has been used. Trim to desired length,(more little squares use F hook, change the number of chains to suit desired width. Chain in 2's plus 6.)
