Crochet Hugs & Kisses Shawl
My friends at The Crochet Crowd Stitch Social have challenged and inspired me to crochet more and more Hugs & Kisses designs. It's my pleasure to introduce you to my latest design, the Crochet Hugs & Kisses Shawl. This is one of the easier of the series so far to crochet.
I started and restarted this one a few times before I decided to use the Caron Big Cakes in Afternoon Tea. I had 2 of these cakes on hand but just wasn't sure if I enjoyed the colours. It wasn't until I started hooking and watching these beautiful colours start to blend that I watched this blossom into a lovely project.
Of course, you can use your favourite cakes or even try it in a solid colour. And this would make an awesome prayer shawl for a special person that needs comfort.

LOVE, LOVE your stitchwork on this shawl Jeanne Steinhilber....can I somehow convert this into an afghan or blanket? Is there a video somewhere that I've overlooked? I'm just crazy in love with the stitches you've put together!
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
There are already 3 blanket patterns on this site using this stitch combo, one with a video. Just do a quick search at the top for Hugs & Kisses

I don't understand what "continue working in pattern of sc, X-st, sc" means when rows 10-12 aren't listed. Does that mean I do 3 rows of that pattern?
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
yes, just one row of each

Jeanne, Love all your new patterns. I want to stay STOP because I cannot keep up. But don't stop. You are on a roll. And I just returned from the Caribbean cruise with TONS of yarn. So thanks to #handmadewithjoann Joann Fabrics and Crafts I have plenty of yarn waiting to become something.
