Project Overview
Shape Play is a celebration of geometry, creativity, and contemporary crochet design. Conceived by Tatsiana of Lilla Björn Crochet, this generously sized rectangular shawl showcases her signature overlay crochet technique, creating a mesmerising interlocking surface pattern.
Designed to be styled in multiple ways, the Shape Play Shawl can be worn simply draped over the shoulders, or transformed using cleverly placed buttons to create a variety of styling options. It can be fastened under the arms to form a shrug-style wrap, or alternatively at the front or over the shoulders to create a poncho-style silhouette—making it a truly adaptable accessory for everyday wear or special occasions.
Offering an engaging and rewarding project for adventurous beginners and beyond, Shape Play combines thoughtful detail, technical interest, and colour play in one striking piece.
