When Baby Cat decided which wedding dress she was going to make, I told her that I'd crochet her a shawl/stole to go with it, because we don't want the bride to have cold shoulders, do we?
Anyway, I found this beautiful pattern on ravelry.com and decided to make it. Baby Cat chose Universal's Bamboo Pop yarn, which we bought at Yarntastic Fiber Arts, which is located at 6802 SE Milwaukie Avenue, in Portland, Oregon. I had a lot of difficulty with the pattern at first. I found it very hard to understand. At one point I almost decided to find another pattern. But then I realized that I couldn't let it defeat me. It took me a while, but I finally figured it out!
This is Baby Cat's stole laying over the back of a chair.
For sure it's going to look a lot better on Baby Cat! I can't wait to see her wear it with her wedding gown.
