White rabbits!
I have two totally different finishes to show for myself this week.
After a solid weekend of crochet and Buffy/Angel, I finished the Kalinda shawl with only a slight adjustment to the pattern.
It’s such a simple pattern that I didn’t want to add any faff with the border. I planned to end with another row of dc, but halfway down the first side I realised that the yarn was running out rather quickly and I would never win this game of yarn chicken. So I frogged back and went for a row of sc with 3 chains at the point to make it a bit pointier. I think it looks pretty good!
It is suuuuuper tempting to hold on to this beauty, but I already have more than enough scarves and shawls so now I have to decide who to give it to.
Stats
Yarn: Cotton Kings Twirl
Colourway: Brazilian Opal
Hook: 3.5mm
Pattern: Kalinda shawl by Crochetory
My second finish is the Caron Cake project bag I started a couple of weeks ago.
I’m still not a huge fan of the colours so not tempted to keep this one. Would anyone be interested in a giveaway for it?
It was pretty simple to make so I might do another one for myself in prettier colours.
Stats
Yarn: Caron Cake x2
Colourway: Strawberry trifle
Hook: 5.5mm
Pattern: One skein wonder carry-all
And that’s what I did this week. Anyone else got some FOs? Interested in winning the bag? Let me know in the comments!

Both projects look great! I think the colors on the bag are really lovely. You had a very productive week.
