Crochet YAY - The Shawl/Wrap

Memba this post?
I showed a picture of a current WIP and threw the question out there as to what it would morph into.

Well, I have to say that all guesses were incorrect...but in all honesty, I wasn't even sure what the end project would be when I started the project.

I loved the combination of the yellows with the pink, cream and greys and just started crocheting away. At some stage I wanted to turn this into a cardigan/dress but as my midriff has expanded a little lately, I changed my mind half way through the piece and decided on a wide shawl/wrap for the coming winter months.


It's really long and wide and so snuggly that I can't wait to make use of it :)
