Put on your scuba gear – today, we’re diving into Danish Medallions! Danish Medallions refers to a type of hand-manipulated lace. To create it, you’ll need a crochet hook and a stick shuttle. These simple tools will help you wrap units of plain weave into oval shapes that look amazing!!
But enough trying to explain it! Let’s watch the video.
Show Notes –
Mingo’s Corner – Our girl, Michele Marshall, recently played with Danish Medallions and left us a lovely blog post. If you are new to Michele, she’s a weaver specializing in the rigid heddle loom and our official Rigid Heddle Consultant for our Acton Creative Weave Alongs! She’s just the best. Please enjoy her thoughts on Danish Medallions right here. (And be sure to subscribe to her blog!)
Leno Lace – In this week’s episode, I refer to other hand-manipulated lace patterns, like Leno. If that’s a new one for you, don’t fret! I’ve got you covered with a Leno lace episode right here. While you’re playing with Danish Medallions, you might as well try a few other lace patterns, I say!
