Simply Crochet's Countdown to Fun: Annabel Shawl




We end this week with the stunningly talented, Kristin Omdahl. She is truly an inspiration. Her work is always stunning and unique.

Annabel Shawl is both Victorian and modern in look. Motifs are crocheted together to create a lacy fabric, then a ruffly edging is added to finish off the project.

Kristin has a keen eye for all things crochet. Her latest book, Seamless Crochet, proves that. She shows how to crochet a number of motifs without ever having to cut your yarn and start again.

It is quite the technique to have on hand if do not like weaving in ends. Definitely worth checking out!  Speaking of checking out, you can tune in at 4PM today on twitter to find out more about her book.  She will be doing a live twitter chat.  Check out her website for more details.


You also need to check out Kristin's Sample Sale going on now! So many of her great designs, all crocheted or knitted for you. Certainly would make for great holiday gifts to get a one of a kind scarf from Kristin herself.
