While I'm still knitting a bit on my Illusion Prayer Blanket, I have finished the sketch and have digitally rendered my drawing to finally be able to chart out the shawl. The process of charting the shawl will take approximately 45 days to complete, and then another 30 days to knit the model.  Below is a sneak peak of the raw image before the charting begins.

Feeling very excited, the Snowy White Owl Shawl is doing extremely well, lots of fabulous comments on all three platforms, and the sales are exceeding my expectations.

Just finishing up a video this morning of the basics of how to read and work the chart, it should be up shortly for all owners of the pattern.

I have put my hours of operation on the main page of the website, seeing that I have lots of members from all over the world, just seems silly to have left that off from the beginning.  I know lots think that I never sleep, but I do! 😂

Remember, the quickest way to get a hold of me is through my Discord chat server, it's safe and secure, and it's absolutely fantastic for my needs and yours.

​Much Luv ❤️

Is now published!

Available on Etsy, LoveCrafts and Raverly

I'm finishing up uploading the video tutorials to the website now.

Made a view changes to the website, took off messenger completely! I have setup a chat group on Discord, which is just fabulous! Safe and secure, and not a part of Facebook! Outstanding live video chat, if you don't have a webcam no problem, just text. I'm still new to it, but I think I have the basics down.  So far it's fantastic for my needs. I really needed to get away from everything Facebook.  So far so good!

I have been done with the Owl Shawl for a week now, just need to make the final videos and post them to the website, as well as take the final print images for the pattern.  It's a real show stopper!  Hopefully I will have everything finished by this weekend so I can publish the pattern to all my platforms.

Finished through chart row 300. Lots of goings on in the house today, just had the workmen finish installing a new Koehler walk-in-tub, so not a lot of knitting was happening for the last two days.  My goal is to be finished with the model and the pattern by Sunday.

This is not my usual update time frame, I normally update every 50 chart rows, but I just had to take photos once I got done with the eyes!  I am beyond excited at how my drawing is coming to life, right before my eyes.  

Creating the Illusion chart from my owl drawing is one thing, but to see the knitting actually look exactly like the drawing itself, is beyond believe.

I have all kinds of ideas running around in my head on all of the possibilities of what I can achieve now that I have mastered the art of charting/knitting in illusion knitting.

The video and image are 250 chart rows complete. The Owl's face is simply amazing!
It's wonderful to see my drawing coming to life.

The video is 200 chart rows complete, the image is the same but it shows more detail I think.
Thursday afternoon I finished the 200 rows, and I'm just a few more rows to get to the center, then I start the decreases.

First video is 100 chart rows complete. Second video is 150 chart rows complete.
Saturday I finished the 100 rows, and Monday (today) finished the 150 rows.
I find it so addictive, I haven't started up the Zebra Head Blanket yet! 

I decided after lots of thoughtful consideration to make the Zebra Head into a blanket instead of a wall hanging.  The chart is complete, and I will be working on it in between my other 3 projects, below is a sampling of what it will look like.

It should be a minimum of 50" wide and ?? length, using DK weight. Once I get going I will be able to give better measurements after a few calculations.

Who doesn't love Zebra's? ❤️
