Mock (Faux) Hairpin Lace Wrap

Mock Hairpin Lace Wrap #4 in Vogue Crochet 2014
Pattern by Jill Wright


I started this project on May 10th.  I was able to pick up the yarn I wanted to make this project with.  Note I have already found an error in the pattern.

Errata:  The chart for this on page 66 of the magazine shows only 11 chains in the turning chains for the spine of the wrap.  There should be always 14 ch for each turning chain. 

This pattern is beautiful and though it does seem time consuming, I believe once you get the hang of working with the smaller hook (1.80mm), it will go faster.  I might be a fast crocheter, but just the first spine has taken me over 5 hours and I'm still not done.  Hopefully I'll be getting faster as I get used to the stitch pattern.  It is a bit more tedious working with such a small hook.

The initial spine consists of 202 short rows, each with a ch14 turning ch.

This is one of the projects I was most excited for when I saw photos from Vogue Crochet 2014.  I'm looking forward to the finished product.
