I love spirals and find ways to incorporate them into my crochet whenever I can. For this shawl, working a piping round in sequined silk really accentuates the geometry of the spiral. The sequins are small and subtle, but they shimmer and shine when you move. Imagine a handsome admirer noticing you from across the room and becoming entranced (or even hypnotized) by the sparkling spiral wrapped around your shoulders. It could happen!!
