When I first started to crochet and became obsessed with making shawls I asked myself - How do I wear my shawls? Very quickly fellow crafters directed me to Stephen Wests Video "How to wear your shawl" and I think it's hilarious.

Now - I'm not a video person, but I figured why not start a little series on ideas how to wear your shawl! Besides - I finally got a Tailor's Bust and want to use it. LOL
I'm going to do this with my beloved half-circle that gets lots of wear.
Part One - the simplest of the simple. To quote Stephen: "You put it on - BOOM! You are wearing a shawl!"
Drape the shawl around you and toss one of the ends dramatically over your shoulder. I personally love the dramatic toss - It makes me feel like a diva of old times. :D

Now here is a recently finished project! As in - finished yesterday. :D A wonderful pattern with an almost architectural structure. It's called "Lucky Moments" but I'd like to rename to "A study in Bobble Stitch Variations". :D It's made from a whooping 1750m/350g 3ply yarn.

Pattern: Lucky moments by Julita Janicka
Yarn: Bobbelscheune 3ply from my Adventcalendar 2021

I hope to show off something recent soon again, but until then, have some more older makes.
This one was super relaxing to make and now has a good home with my aunt, who jumped on it immediately, as she adored the colors. :-)

I'm also dabbling a bit with Bluesky. The weekly prompt in one of the crochet Threads there was neckwear: cowls, loops scarfs etc.
I'm not a huge fan of cowls, but was intruiged with the Moebius technique, so gave this a try. Bonus: it also doubles as a headwrap. And the yarn is beautiful.

Pattern: Möbius Capelet / Cowl by Bella 358
Yarn: 2024 Kickstarter Make 100 Campaign by Jaine from Skye Silks

Some projects are harder to capture in a picture than others. Like this rectangular stole. Did I mention it has glitter in it? Today is a day that asks for glitter to get through it.

The details in that beauty are great, I love all the structure. Lots of bobble stitches in variations. (.... though not as many as in my current WIP)
I remember I made this shawl for a MAL over on Ravelry (Make-Along) with the topic Earth and my inspiration was Sedona.
The pattern itself was also a CAL (Crochet Along) by the Designers, but I made it later. In any case - I love the composition of this pattern. Bonus - the yarn is from a small yarnwinder in my country. As small as our country is, that makes her local to me. :D

This is a very special piece. In one of my yarn surprise boxes, there was this crazy luxurious yarn:
40% Wool - Merino
25% Camelid - Llama
20% Silk
15% Cellulose - Linen / Flax

I was almost scared to use it and searched the longest time for a fitting project. I eventually decided on the Shawl of the Moirae and I think it's such a special piece.

Yarn: The Fibre Co. Meadow in color Pennyroyal

The pattern for this beauty is called "Dandelion Lane" and the yarn I used reminded me of a Dandelion growing out of a street. Amazing little resilient plants! Also - the shawl has Glitter. Most things are better with Glitter.

Pattern: Dandelion Lane by Grassharp
Yarn: Hobbii Twister Glitter from a Second Choice Bag.

This is a more recent project, finished last December; therefore the slightly crappy lighting. It's super flowy and delicate, made with lace-weight yarn. And it has glitter! Swipe to the close-up to actually see some of the sparkles.

Pattern: Laura by Lily Go
Yarn: Save the Yarn by Krojer Recycled Cotton with Sparkles
