This week's Movie Monday features knitwear from the tragic tale of a child's murder, The Lovely Bones. I've also included in the post, a few pattern recommendations so you can knit similar garments to the ones seen in the film. Hey, crocheters! Like the main hat in the movie but aren't a fan of knitting? Don't worry, you can play, too--try Kelly Klem's Glenmore Hat.

Our Picadilly Baby Blanket was so popular with readers, that we asked Kelly Klem to use her amazing skills to recreate the design as a shawl. And Kelly didn't disappoint. The Breakers Shawl is just lovely. Crocheted in bamboo-blend Spa, the Breakers Shawl uses cleverly pieced segments of a circle to an intriguing interlocking effect. Just gorgeous.

So many of you wonderful stitchers make garments and gifts with love and care. If you have been wanting to crochet a friendship or prayer shawl for someone special, then give Mary Miller's One Skein Summer Wrap a try. Easy and fast to create, and a terrific value using just one skein of popular One Pound yarn.
