    Thank you much. This is one of my fav creations. The pattern for this came from youtube. If you type in, crochet bolero for women, an assortment of bolero patterns will come up. I dont remember but "I think" I used Lion Brand Shawl in a Cake in the color way Namaste. I pray this helps.

    Ya know, I think I’m going to have to look up Rosie Grier (retired NFL star) and see if he can’t make his way to this forum and more specifically, to this thread. Some of the stuff he did is pretty intricate albeit, his style is more into needle point rather than crochet.

    Most of us guys wouldn’t know a shawl from a scarf or a bandana but the idea of someone actually sitting down and creating a wearable object and a work of art is a skill not many people do much less are as good at it as my wife or @Chelly Ali.

    That's very kind of you. Yes, Mr. Grier did needle point. These skills were standard back in the days of home economics in schools. People with hand skills for building, growing, cooking and producing goods and services, will have a lot to barter with. Those of us who have these talents would be well advised to start making stacks of useful items. (Blankets, gloves, scarves, socks, face masks(with filters), coats, sweater...etc.). I pray you and your dear ones stay safe during these trying times.
