blog prodigal returns & loomed prayer shawl

It's been ages since I last posted, 2 years and 3 months to be exact. I decided it was time to re-instate myself with this blog and with looming. I feel as though I'm starting over with learning this craft. I also took the plunge and gave this blog a total makeover which has been a tedious ordeal. I went with the updated editor including a new look, and most of my right-hand side links and additions had to be added again.

I finally took the prayer shawl off the loom. It's embarrassing to admit the shawl was on the loom for years and was haunting me to be completed. In my haste, it turned out a little short, but still functional. It was made using this pattern for the loom with my modded Markman Farm 18" RG adjustable rake. I've added the prayer shawl loom to my wish list for my next prayer shawl.

Looming Through the Psalms:
"I will bless the LORD who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me. I know the LORD is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me." Psalm 16:7,8
