A Prayer Shawl is a wearable ((HUG)) crafted with love. They can be knitted, crocheted, or quilted. They may be adorned with beads, bobbles, fringe, or nothing at all. While the maker is creating, they keep the recipient in mind with prayer, personal words, song, or mantra. It’s these thoughts imbued in the shawl with each stitch that make them so special. The shawl is not only healing for the recipient, but also the maker. When the shawl is completed it will be blessed before being sent to the recipient. Shawls are given freely as a gift to anyone in need.
