The making of a prayer shawl is a spiritual practice which embodies thoughts and prayers for the receiver. It is a gift freely given with no strings attached. Made in prayer, as prayer, for prayer, the shawls are passed on hand-to-hand and heart-to-heart.

A prayer shawl or blanket embraces the recipient with the unconditional love of the Lord. It is a gift reaching out to those in need of comfort and solace as well as in celebration and joy. Prayer squares are given to those going on mission trips, working for social justice. Many blessings are prayed into every item we make.

I Love Yarn Day - October 17, 2015


For the past five years, we have had a day designated just for all of us yarn lovers. What a perfect time to celebrate and "stitch it forward" and spread the love around. Teach someone the art of your craft or simply spend some precious time enjoying the feel, the beauty, the pleasure of yarn. The many health benefits and the "feel good" awareness of yarn crafting cannot be denied. It's contagious! So very hard to resist! I am absolutely, positively a yarn lover and proud of it. I love yarn and I Love Yarn Day!
