I love to crochet, tunisian crochet, loom knit, using a circular knitting machine and shop for yarn.

very pretty it looks like the brick or block stitch, sometimes also called Modern granny. I have seen it worked center out in a square. The Crochet crowd - Jeanine has a free pattern I believe which is the one I'm doing with blue and yellow yarn.  This one looks like it's done in rows, one row of four double crochets and the following row is maybe a chain 3 or chain 4 and a single crochet for the whole row across. 3 rows of Single crochets around the whole blanket for the border.

I just finished making this (prayer - grief) shawl to gift to my cousin who just recently lost her daughter to cancer.  I used Lionbrand Mandala Baby yarn in colorway Rainbow Falls and a 4.5mm crochet hook.  The pattern is from Bag O Day Crochet's video tutorial - 3D reversible shawl #theMonthofBOD2024

I am hoping it's an ok size and not too small. She lives in FL so I wanted something lightweight and not too warm or heavy. I made her another one but the color weren't bold enough so I made her a second shawl.

Here is a video I made, uploaded to my YouTube channel, where I show the shawl in person and you can see the texture and how cool the stitch is, because it's so textured it's not smooth but it is very original / unique looking.  It did take me longer than usual to make this shawl and stitch because of the thinner DK weight yarn and small hook size. https://youtu.be/efr6LYzjA88?si=9QWfINusSqA8EwFi

Let me know if you need the links to the other sites, usually what I do is I type the product name in Google and then I click on the shopping tab to find the cheapest prices of the yarn or product.

Almost all of the above, except the make money one... I've only sold a few items that I have made.  I've only done a few commissions, they stress me and when I have a paid deadline I no longer feel like working on the project.
