This beautiful shawl was hand-crocheted for my christening, back in 1972.

It is still in pristine condition, having been packed away all this time.

I am not sure exactly what the yarn is, though I would imagine it is either wool or polyester.

It is a beautiful, lacy crochet; it is semi-circular, made in a series of triangles, with a deep, frilly border.

I have put it both on a baby doll for demonstration of its use as a christening shawl (the doll is not for sale) and on a dressmaker's dummy to demonstrate how it could be worn by an adult.
