Disappointing Crochet Pattern for Prayer Shawls

Arts and crafts enthusiasts will be less than thrilled with this pattern. Using this product, our team found that the instructions were poorly written and confusing. It was difficult to follow the pattern, which rendered the final product unappealing. That said, the only pro we could find was the low price point of the pattern. Unfortunately, the cons far outweighed this plus. Save your money and look for a better-designed crochet pattern for your prayer shawl.

Pros
  • Generates prayer shawls for those in need and spreads comfort and love.
Cons
  • Requires a significant time commitment from volunteers that may limit participation.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Price piggy bank

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…

Pros
  • a handy article
Cons
