Angel Wings Shawl Pattern

Here's a shawl pattern I've written within the past month or so.
It's called the Angel Wings Shawl pattern and this name was chosen from about 50-60 names that were suggested to me than voted on by the amazing people over in Crochetville. My home away from home.

Knitted shawls: Wheelchair Wrap

I created this pattern for those who really like the Weaver's Wool Mini shawl but do not knit.
I really like the size of this little shawl because it is perfect for those individuals who are wheelchair bound or bed ridden. It covers the shoulders without excess fabric to get caught in chair wheels or bunch up in the bed. It also makes it very easy for care givers to minister to the elderly since their arms are easily accessible.
