  • Salvation Colors Afghan – Part 2

    Want to know more about the Salvation Colors Afghan in knit and in crochet?  Find out what each color represents. Get ideas on using it as a witnessing tool.

    Check out the video to learn more about the Salvation Colors project. 

    Collect your supplies. Gather a group of friends to work on this project together. It can be a great time to share your knitting and/or crochet skills; to learn new stitch patterns; and to enjoy each other’s company.

    May your heart be encouraged, being knit (crocheted) together in love. Colossians 2:2

  • Salvation Colors afghan/lapghan – Part 1

    This lesson on various colors representing God’s Plan of Salvation is a fun way to learn Scripture and to tell the Salvation story. When you are finished with the project you will have your own witnessing tool at your fingertips.

    Each color represents God’s love and desire to spend eternity with us. Salvation is a FREE GIFT, but must be accepted.

    Each panel offers a chance to learn a new stitch pattern. I have offered up stitch patterns for a Knit version and for a Crochet version. Both are finished off with crochet edging.

    IF YOU ARE NEW TO KNIT OR CROCHET and are not yet ready to try new stitch patterns, work the project using garter stitch (knit every row) and stockinette stitch (knit one row, purl one row) for the knit version and just single, half, double, or triple crochet for the crochet version.  The important thing here is the colors to make your witnessing tool, not the stitch.  Once you are comfortable with the techniques, make another using the stitch patterns. Mix and match the stitch patterns and colors when you remake the project.

    Make the panels long enough for an afghan or smaller for a lapghan or child size cover up.

    Other project ideas include making shorter strips and planning 3 on each side and still doing the black edging between then using the red to stitch around and make a pillow cover.

    Another idea is to make a scarf by working a pattern to desired size, add 2 rows of black do to the next pattern and continue until all colors are used with black row separators. Edge in red.

    Materials I used and suggest:

    Knitting Needles size 9 for Knit version

    Crochet Hook C or G for both versions

    Cable hook for Knit version for the green panel

    Yarn needle for both version

    1 Skein each color in Red Heart or I Love This Yarn (1 skein of each color made 2 lapghans so would be just right for afghan) WORSTED WEIGHT

    Black

    Orange

    Red

    Gold

    Purple

    Blue

    White

  • Still working

    My local Knit Crochet Bible Study starts tomorrow night so I am frantically typing away, getting the pattern written out for the Colors of Salvation afghan/lapghan.

    I finished up a knit and a crochet version.  I will be posting the patterns and scripture verses soon.

     

  • Salvation Colors Lapghan

    Just finished writing up the lessons for the Fall Knitting/Crochet Bible Study at my church. I have created lapghans to practice new stitches while studying this semester. Using the “Colors of Salvation” we will knit and or crochet lapghans, or perhaps use the strips for scarves. No matter what their final project is, here are pics of the lapghans.  I am now writing up the patterns and will post for download soon.
