Prakruti meaning landscape or scenery in hindi, depicts a scene right after the heavy showers in the evening.
Using crochet to create a scenery, this pattern plays with colourwork and textures of stitches to bring to life a real landscape scenery. With a base of the broomstick lace stitch and some cool modifications to the usual cables and the crocodile stitch, this shawl is a great project for someone who wants to take up a challenge.
