My friends at The Crochet Crowd Stitch Social have challenged and inspired me to crochet more and more Hugs & Kisses designs. It’s my pleasure to introduce you to my latest design of the Hugs & Kisses Shawl. This is one of the easier of the series so far to crochet.

I started and restarted this one a few times before I decided to use the Caron Big Cakes in Afternoon Tea. I had 2 of these cakes on hand, but just wasn’t sure if I enjoyed the colors. It wasn’t until I started hooking and watching these beautiful colors start to blend that I watched this blossom into a lovely project.

Of course, you can use your favorite cakes or even try it in a solid color. And this would make an awesome prayer shawl for a special person that needs comfort.
