Crochet Shawl Obesession

| 4 Comments

Here is an update on my Cascade shawl: it is now an obsession! I am determined to get this finished by the end of the month. Now whether that will actually happen or not is hard to say. I’m just a smidgen from the halfway point. I started this on 8/26/12, and it was a casual project for awhile. But then I started thinking of all the CAL/KALs on Ravelry that are allowing double dipping (Dramatic Knits, Positive Knitting, Knitty Knatter, Knit Me Happy, and so on), and this urged me on to get this puppy done by the end of September. Plus this would mean one more Christmas gift will be done.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.

  1. love the colors and the design. what stitch is that

  2. Thanks, the yarn is super cool. It uses a variety of stitches, double crochet, triple, single, clusters, etc.

  3. That is a GORGEOUS stitch. Why have I never heard of it before? I need to go see your earlier post, which I somehow missed…

  4. It is a pretty nice pattern, but it’s probably the yarn that makes it. It naturally does the stripping, so it makes me look really talented.
