Irish Lace Renaissance

Mag 55 Cover_0 lacmakingRowan mag 55, Spring Summer 2014 is out, including my first article for Rowan, Irish Crochet Lace Renaissance (there might be some quite nice patterns in there too…)
Lace is going to be the big thing this year, and crochet is a great way of trying it out if you’ve never done it before – what with only one stitch to drop instead of a whole row. The interesting thing about Irish crochet is that it is made in small modular sections making it easier to manage. IMG_1913

 

 

These are some of my own efforts with crochet lace. IMG_1881IMG_1915
