Bríd Shawl

Original price was: €6.00.Current price is: €5.25.

Inspired by the legend of Saint Brigid’s miraculously expanding cloak, this shawl builds up over 32 segments (one for each county in Ireland), until it becomes a perfect, full circle.

Using a combination of traditional crochet at the beginning of each segment, and Tunisian crochet Simple Stitches for the rest, this shawl’s repeats means it is accessible to the adventurous beginner and interesting enough to keep an experienced crocheter engaged.

The simple colourwork adds visual interest – and, allows anyone to colour code it to your family’s (or your favourite) Irish county flag. This sample is made using County Clare’s flag, for instance.
