prayer shawls

So there is no telling whether this will happen or not, but The Crochet Crowd recently posted a link to their 9 Free Prayer Shawl Patterns on Facebook and it got me thinking about prayer shawls again.  Generally when people make prayer shawls, they pray for the people who will be receiving the shawl as they knit or crochet them.  (In the Facebook link they explained the story of one lady doing just this while crocheting prayer shawls for a church group she was a part of.)  This strikes me as a really fantastic idea.  Praying and crocheting, filling shawls with love and prayer then giving them away.  It seems that this would be a great way to not only fill my desire to make things, but also turn the making into a more devotional and giving experience.  Something to chew on.  At the moment I'm ready to declare a New Year's resolution of making a prayer shawl a month and choosing a different friend or person to pray for during that time, but I also know that I'm a little caught up in the wonderful feeling of the idea and I don't want to promise something happening that may or may not.  Just an idea to consider.  Does anyone want to join me?
