Hello! I’m Sharon J. Mondragon. I’m a novelist, knitter, wife, mom, and grandma who has settled in North Texas after many years of trekking to various duty stations with my soldier/hero/beloved husband.
My life as a novelist has taken a thrilling turn! My debut novel, THE UNLIKELY YARN OF THE DRAGON LADY is going to be published by Kregel Publications on September 21, 2021! The book is about a group of women who take their ministry “public,” knitting in the local mall during the Christmas shopping season. They not only touch others with the love and care of God but find hope and healing for raw places in their own hearts.
What’s a prayer shawl, you ask? It’s a shawl that’s knitted, crocheted, or woven to give as a gift to someone who’s going through a challenge and/or heartbreak. Prayer shawl makers pray as they knit, crochet, and weave to infuse the shawl with a sense of God’s loving presence. Remember wrapping up in that afghan your grandmother made you, feeling her love seep into you? Prayer shawls are something like that.
