Spiders and Shells



Delicate changes with textural interest make this light and easy to crochet pattern ideal for many projects. From afghan blocks to an all-over pattern to be used for a shawl.

counting next 5 sts and working another shell 6 stitches away from the first. Ch 5, skip 5 sts in between and make 1 dc in next
1 dc in each of next 5 dc to end row. Ch 3, turn.

"The truth as it is in Jesus can be experienced, but never explained. Its height and breadth and depth pass out knowledge. We may task out imagination to the utmost, and then we shall see only dimply the outlines of a love that is unexplainable, that is as high as heaven, but that stooped to the earth to stamp the image og God on all mankind." Christ's Object Lessons, p. 129.
