These shells take a bit to get down, but I really hope I showed you well enough in the tutorials where to put your hook. The pictures I took really didn't do it justice, they look so much more impressive in real life. I really urge anyone to give it a try who's looking for a lacy stitch that pops! This would make a great top, shawl or even an afghan! If you're looking for a lacy stitch this is the one to try.
