Scheepjes Snaggletooth MAL by Esme Crick

End 2021 with a burst of colour! The Snaggletooth MAL designed by Friend of Scheepjes Esme Crick of Red Sparrow Crochet is a dynamic fusion of bold colour contrasts, abstract broken checks and lively trims. This vibrant, modern blanket revives the traditional houndstooth textile design and is crocheted in a choice of either Scheepjes Colour Crafter or Scheepjes Chunky Monkey yarns. To encourage participants to experiment and create their own unique colour schemes, printable colouring sheets are available to download via this e-mail or by visiting scheepjes.com.

About the Designer

Esme shares her love of crochet with the rest of the world from her home in rural Suffolk, UK. With her partner, two children and beloved tabby Hank Deluxe by her side, she finds plenty to enjoy and inspire in the beautiful surrounding countryside. After discovering mosaic crochet a few years ago, Esme adopted the technique which she uses to capture inspiration from nature in a bold modern style.
