Lacey prayer shawl using grandmother's crocheted pieces

I will be posting this segment in stages as i create the prayer shawl one step at a time.  Gather some vintage crocheted pieces, you probably have them stashed away. I even had a crochet pot holder with stain from my great grandmother.  I used vintage Dante Berraco yarn (you either love it or hate it) for trimming around pieces. Double crochet loosely around pieces you want to use, creating a lacey look to each piece. You might also have to change the crochet hook gage depending how tight the piece is.
