Crochet, SweetGeorgia

Abrupt by Rebecca Velasquez

Adding new patterns to our crochet line is exciting enough, but when it is something as gorgeous as this new shawl from Rebecca Velasquez and the very essence of cozy, comfort? Well, we might have just jumped around with delight.

With its wonderfully squishy size and repetitive stitch patterning, Abrupt shawl crochet pattern is the epitome of “hygge” (you know, that crazy new trending word that means ultra-cozy-leads-to-contentment-type-of-living?) Three smoky hues in Tough Love Sock, paired with bold zigzagging eyelets, results in a show-stopping accessory that captivates from the get-go.
