In January I traveled to Japan for the first time since moving away. It was great to see friends and places I’ve been missing so much! I knew I’d need a crochet project for the plane and various train rides etc., so instead of an ami with lots of separate colors and notions and fiddly bits, I decided to do another virus shawl. This way I only needed one yarn cake, one hook, and the pattern, and even that I didn’t really need anymore after a few repetitions, because it’s so easy to memorize and get into a groove. This is my second shawl I’ve finished using the Virus Shawl pattern, and like the first, I used Sultan Deluxe Shine yarn. I love the gradation! I’ll be giving this shawl to my mom for her birthday.

I love how the stitches make a pattern like overlapping waves / scales. Beautiful colors, too! Your mom will surely love it. It’s wonderful that you got to go back to Japan for a visit.
