A new CAL by Rosina Plane
Inspired by the tongue-twister “She Sells Seashells”, and finding shells on winter walks along various Norfolk beaches, “On the Seashore” is a 5-part CAL, worked using the overlay mosaic crochet technique, and finished off with a simple envelope border to hide the loose ends. If you are unfamiliar with mosaic crochet or the envelope border, don’t worry, they are much easier to do than they look. Full written instructions are provided, alongside clearly marked, easy to read charts and lots of helpful photos, making this pattern suitable even for total beginners to mosaic crochet.
Please note, this is a CAL (Crochet ALong), so you won’t receive the full pattern straight away - rather it has been split into 5 separate parts.
