How to Crochet Bruges Lace in a Spiral Crochet Shawl Pattern by Kristin Omdahl
The Ter Berge Shawl is designed by Kristin Omdahl exclusively for Robyn Chachula’s newest book, “Modern Vintage Crochet”. This shawl is crocheted with only one skein of Be So Fine Yarn in Lavender’s First Romance colorway.

Watch this video to learn the really cool and unusual technique Kristin developed to turn bruges lace into a spiral. This gorgeous shawl is comprised of several sizes of lace medallions with this clever and deceptively simple technique.
Here are a few other crochet designs that feature bruges lace crochet in a spiral, Tigress Pullover from Continuous Crochet, Dahlia Shrug from Crochet So Lovely and Hat from The Finer Edge (all these books by Kristin Omdahl are available on Amazon):
