Autumnal Scribbles with Yarn

 I finished this shawl earlier this year, but by the time I did, it was too warm to wear it. Now that we're past the yucky part of the year, I've got it on as I type. I couldn't get a good pic of the entire thing, so here it is in parts.

I crocheted it with a thicker wool (bought at a charity shop) with an 8mm hook in a basic lace stitch pattern, consisting of chains and single crochets (double crochet in UK terms). Then I took scraps and leftovers and did some surface crochet chains around in a random, abstract way. I made some simple motifs and sewed them on here and there. I love it! It's perfect for this time of year when it's not really cold--nice and cosy without being too heavy. 

I'm so happy to be back in wool season! 🐑😁
