Finally, The Amazing Grace Pocket Shawl! I decided to follow the crowd and design a pocket shawl using the Amazing Grace Stitch Pattern… I know there are so many versions of pocket shawls… But this is such a great idea for those who are suffering from Breast Cancer or other life tragedies, I felt like the Amazing Grace Series really needed to have one. This is the 26th free pattern in the Amazing Grace Series.. If you don’t know, this series is dedicated to Breast Cancer Awareness and my dearest friend Sandy and also my mother who both lost their lives to breast cancer… Check out all the Amazing Grace Patterns in the tab at the top of the page!
