Women's Guild Outreach 3-H PM Care-Giving Ministries 3-H PM, We meet at The Escape once a month September through May from 6:30 - 8:30 PM on the Thursday following the second Wednesday. Along with making baby blankets, prayer shawls and prayer squares, we have been studying a series of books by john MacArthur. We would love to have you! Please call Kathleen Horak, 330-562-1930. You do not need to belong to this circle to contribute to their care-giving ministries. When you have finished one of these projects just give it to Kathleen Horak or any member of 3-H PM.

For other patterns (including crocheted ones) click on one of the links below: Crocheted Shawls (several patterns) Knit Shawls (additional pattern - this one is rectangular and uses both knitting and purling.) Prayer Links: When you are making a prayer shawl, prayer square, or other item, you can use some of the yarn for a prayer link. A link can be sent to family members of those who receive a prayer shawl or prayer square so they can also be in prayer for the person. Also, you can make one to keep for yourself - especially if you know the person receiving the shawl. Links can be made with K3, turn, K3 for 10 rows, binding off so the link is in a rectangle shape. |
