Inspired by visiting the Cascades D’Ouzoud in Morocco, my recreation of the downwards plummet and foamy crash of the water in crochet brings back memories of a fantastic day out with amazing scenery.

This is a comfortable, yet smart garment that shows off your creative skills.
The simple, repeating techniques and shaping, make it a perfect project to develop your garment making skills or TV crochet project for confident makers.
