Davallia

This crochet JACK E T

appears in PomPom Magazine Issue 28. Isa
Catepillan’s beautiful stitchwork is inspired by
Davallia ferns as the new fronds unfurl. The jacket
is built with rectangular shapes. Once you have
made a Davallia panel, we’ll have the information we
need to plan your very own jacket. You can choose
to make your Davallia sleeveless. Your version
can be a long vest with side slits. There are many
variations on this basic garment shape that we
can discover together this summer. The magazine
provides only written instructions. If you are a fan
of crochet charts, you will be happy to know that
Sheep’s Clothing has created a chart to supplement
the pattern. If you haven’t yet worked from crochet
charts this is a great opportunity to expand your
crochet horizons by getting into the world of charts.

Filet Diamonds Crocheted
SH AW L
Filet crochet is often done with skinny cotton thread to make
home decor items. The technique can make beautiful clothing
accessory pieces as well. BJ’s design for a crochet shawl is
worked in fingering weight wool yarn to create a lightweight fabric
to keep you comfortable in overly air-conditioned spaces during
the summer. Or wrap up artfully in it this fall. You’ll begin at the
point and steadily increase to the ending. This will make it easy for
you to try it on in progress and decide on the perfect size shawl for
your needs. In class 1 you’ll make a good start on the body of the
shawl. Meet for class 2 a few weeks later to begin the edging.
