The original Marc Jacobs hand crocheted waffle-knit wool shawl from last Autumn’s Collection, it retailed at an eye watering £1,120 ($1,800) and it sold lots!

I personally thought this shawl was a beautiful modern day interpretation of a vintage crochet stitch, a real piece of genius! In fact, I was so inspired last autumn I started to make my own version of this beautiful shawl.

Its such a lovely shawl and really easy to make. If even looks good as a blanket or small throw! I have hooked on another shawl in the softest lambs wool in a natural colour way with a light grey contrasting yarn and will post images as soon as I have finished.

The pattern works well with a chunky yarn making it a quick crochet project. More details and the pattern are available on my blog.
