My friend Fran Metallo in New Jersey designed a shawl pattern which she named after me - Sandie's Wrapped in Love Shawl. She made me a beautiful shawl using this pattern and my favorite colors. Here I am wearing it.
You can see more of Fran's designs at Ravelry. She also has an Instagram page.
She also sent me this gorgeous crochet hook by Laurie Whitaker (Facebook). It's Footprints in the Sand design.
I have such wonderful friends! I love both items and look forward to using them.
Happy crocheting!
Sandie
