Crochet Leafy Lace Prayer Shawl Chemo Wrap

This Crochet Leafy Lace Prayer Shawl Chemo Wrap is perfect to give to someone who needs a bit of comfort. Life happens and we can show others that we care, by making them a lovely wrap to use during chemo, or a time of bereavement. You can purchase the ad free pdf of the Leafy Lace wrap at RAVELRY or ETSY

A mannequin is outside among flowers and a green lawn. It is wrapped in the Crochet Leafy Lace Prayer Shawl Chemo Wrap, that was made using Lion Brand mandala ombre yarn in the colorway chi. The color gradates from white to deep purple. The purple is speckled.

This Leafy Lace Chemo Wrap Prayer Shawl has a beautiful texture and drape.

 The leafy lace stitch was created by Stacy Wilkinson of Handmade by StacyJ. You really need to watch this video so that you understand why she made this stitch.
The border that uses the Double wrapped double crochet cluster stitch, using mandala ombre in the color chi.

Crocheting the Border on the wrap is a delight.

It uses a Double Wrapped Double Crochet Cluster stitch. I came across this stitch in the early 1980’s. There was an advertisement in a craft or crochet magazine, not sure which. A check was sent in the mail to purchase pattern number 1178 from Alice Fowler’s family. When the pattern arrived in the mail there was a catalog included.

Quite a few of Alice Fowler’s beautiful crochet patterns were purchased.

Many of her designs have come off my hook over the past few years, and this little Double Wrapped Double Crochet Cluster Stitch has stuck with me. A few of my designs feature this stitch. 

Watch the video tutorial on how to make this Crochet Leafy Lace Prayer Shawl Chemo Wrap.

Row by row charts will help you along. The instructions will help you make this wrap. There is also a Left Handed Version video tutorial for the Leafy Lace Wrap.

One more thing about the Leafy Lace Stitch.

Stacy was waiting for me to finish the Leafy Lace Wrap, she started playing with her new stitch. My heart was filled with joy, when she showed me the 4 day Afghan. It uses the leafy lace stitch.

Later Mary Maxim picked up her design.

They put it in a kit and is sold on their website! Check it out at this link. Feel free to purchase the 4 day throw kit. Stacy will benefit from your purchase.
