I crocheted 32 pocket prayer crosses for a friend who is a leader with the Kairos outside prison ministry. She is helping with an upcoming event where these crosses will be given out to the women attending. Each day a little gift is given out to each person and I was happy to be able to make the pocket crosses.

After I crocheted all the prayer crosses, I did a light starch spray on them. I put them on wax paper and let them dry. You don’t need to do this step but my sport-weight yarn was so thin that I wanted to stiffen them up a bit.

Here is the free Bobble Prayer Pocket pattern. It’s a quick and fun crochet pattern that uses around 12 yards of yarn for each one.

Below is a final photo of the 32 prayer crosses, all ready to be given out to bless the prison ministry.
