Review on 🙏 Prayer Shawl Outreach by Amber Perez

I recently started thinking about what to crochet after finishing my last Afghan family project and was wondering what charitable opportunities there are for knitters. An internet search turned up a number of great charities and services, but my favorite was the scarf service. I looked at The Shawl Ministry (where it all started) and Lion Brand for information and inspiration. I also looked at the websites of some religious groups that offer paid services. Along the way I discovered this book, The Prayer Fee Ministry, by Leisure Arts and Lion Brand. I hesitated to buy it as some of the reviewers expressed concerns, but after careful consideration, I bought the book and am glad I did. Reasons I bought the book: 1) I'll admit that I'm better off with a crochet book in my hands than a bunch of printouts of free patterns and information from the internet. 2) The book seemed like a short volume that I would find useful, and I didn't mind that the publisher made some money off my purchase. This is not the first time I have purchased a book for ministry in the knowledge that the book was clearly sold for a profit by the author/publisher. 3) Some reviewers have mentioned another book on shawl work, but as far as I can tell it was for knitters and I crochet. 4) I'm starting the switch service as a personal ministry and will not have a support and encouragement group, so this book seems like an attractive resource as a resource. Now the book is in my hands and I'm glad she bought it. The book contains several prayers that can be used in making a prayer shawl, as well as some tips for conducting the service. The book tells of three churches that provide paid services in Little Rock, Arkansas (the birthplace of recreational arts). There are also four crochet patterns and four knitting patterns for shawls/plaids. They are all simple and use a simple repeating pattern that can be meditative in nature. (And yes, one of the crochet patterns and one of the crochet patterns are available for free on the Lion Brand website.) My only issue with the book and why I rated it four stars instead of five is the story section of those who used Lion Brand homemade yarn and shared how this yarn has helped them with their shawl projects. There is some useful information in these stories, especially for those who are new to the headscarf work, but these stories got me thinking about Lion Brand's marketing. Despite the marketing aspect, this is a useful book for those starting a paid service. In addition to purchasing this book, I also encourage people to check the website of the Schaldienst and the websites of the many religious communities that offer this service for more help and inspiration. /07 Review: I bought (via Revain) a copy of the Knitting in Secret book I linked to above. Although this is written by knitters from a knitting point of view, I can easily call it a knitter. Knitting in Secret is a spiritual book full of stories and prayers and I think this is a good complement to the Handkerchief Prayer Ministry which is more of a short instructional book. Both books are good in different ways. I can easily call it a knitter.
