We typically meet at 4 pm at the church on the 4th Sunday.
Please check the Calendar page for the current month's
meeting.
If you are interested in starting a prayer shawl ministry, we
suggest you visit the "founding" website at
http://www.shawlministry.com/. That site contains everything
you need to understand what a prayer shawl ministry can be,
how to get started, knitting & crocheting patterns, etc.
You are also welcome to join us at any of our meetings, which
are held the 4th Sunday of every month at 4 p.m. at the church,
2 Neosho (South Avenue & Neosho St). We start with prayer,
bless shawls completed & in progress, and help each other
learn to knit and crochet.
Directions for knitting a shawl:
3 skeins Lion Brand Homespun yarn
1 pair size 11, 13 or 15 needles.
Cast on an odd number of multiple of three - 51 or 57 typically
work well. Knit 3, purl 3 across. Repeat until shawl is desired
length - usually takes 2 1/2 skeins. Or, knit every row. Either
pattern is beautiful.
Other patterns - or shapes - may be used, such as triangular:
cast on 2, K2 and add 1, turn. K3, add one, turn. Continue
increasing at the end of each row until you have 108 stitches -
or it appears as wide as you'd like. Cast off & add fringe.
