This segment's strip is Skipping Stones by Susan Lowman, former secretary on the CGOA Board and former co-chair of the CGOA Masters Committee (and current Professional Member of CGOA).
"Susan Lowman is
well-known for her work
with the Wiggly Crochet
technique. If you've never tried it
before, you're going to love it. You
start by creating a mesh background
then crochet your strips into that
mesh. Susan has chosen to arrange the
colors of rouge, lavender, and
shocking pink so her strip has a
very free-flowing feel that is
reminiscent of ripples
in a pond."This is a fantastically textured strip that showcases the three-dimensional capabilities of crochet. The pattern starts on page 4 of the Across the Board booklet.
