Help me Decide the next 3 months of crafting!
Okay, so December is not that far away, and that means one thing:
A Christmas and Holiday Party Shawl!
If I'm going to be running around in a pretty dress freezing my bum' off, I'm going to need a cute shawl or wrap to help me pretend that I'm warm (or that I at least know how to accessorize!).
I know this year, I want either two colors: Bright Screaming Holiday Santa Red, or a toned down, sophisticated Dark Grey/Silver color.
But I can't decide on a Shawl.
Can you help?
Here's my choices so far:
1. Convertible Shawl By Robyn Chacula
Crochet, Motif Shawl, made in pieces.
(Click here to view Shawl on Ravelry, as I don't have permission to share this image just yet!)
2. Gathering of Leaves Shawl, by LilyGo Advanced/Intermediate Crochet Lace Shawl
(Ravelry Gallery Link)
3. Falling Leaves Scarf/Stole, by Lucy Neatby: Knit Shawl, new Knitting Techniques for me, kinda bulky
(Ravelry Pattern Link!)
4. Haruni Shawl, Independent Designer on Knitpicks! (Non-Knitters/Crocheters can access this link!) New techniques, light-weight, easily affordable yarn!
5. Halia Stole, also on Knitpicks through their Independent Crochet Designer Patterns (Publicly Accessible, non-knitters/crocheter friendly site!) Kinda bulky, but adaptable.
6. Blue Curacao by Doris Chan
: Crochet Lacey Pineapple Shawl. Traditional, lacey, but some people might find it a little "mature". I'd be making it out of a thinner yarn.
Or do you have a different suggestion?
PS: Here's my dress, just so you can get an idea:
