  • Colors of Salvation Knit/Crochet-along

    As a child in Sunday School we took colored pieces of construction paper and learned the story of salvation through the representation of each color.

    I have taken each of these colors and various stitch patterns to create a Colors of Salvation Afghan.

    Each stitch and color represents a segment of the story of God’s love, forgiveness, and promise of Heaven.

    Many others joined in 2 years ago for the first Colors Of Salvation Knit/Crochet-along.  It was so much fun I want to do it again.  This time, with videos demonstrations of each set of stitches.

    Whether you knit or crochet, this project is a fun way to advance your skill by learning new stitch combinations; review scripture while working through the project.

    This project is very versatile.  You can make a full size afghan or a smaller lapghan.  One person commented she made it smaller and stitched the sides to make a tote.

    Once you learn the stitch patterns, find your favorite and make that pattern into a scarf.

    I will post a video demonstration of the first set of stitches on Saturday, Sept 17, then new pattern stitches each month.  The colors will be worked as follows:

    • Sept:  Orange
    • Oct:    Gold
    • Nov:   Purple
    • Dec:   White
    • Jan:    Blue
    • Feb:  Green
    • Mar:  Black & Red Edging and Seaming

  • Colors of Salvation Afghan

    Did you complete your Colors of Salvation afghan/lapghan?  Perhaps you used the strips to make scarves or totes.

    Linda is a member of my local Knit and Crochet Bible Study. She showed me her completed project which she is giving to a close friend of hers in need of comfort.

    She says she is planning to start another one.

    If you missed any part of the pattern, I have posted the complete project in one PDF file for you to download.  Click on the file cabinet below.
