You are going to want to grab this kit for shell stitch crochet espadrilles from Anne Weil of Flax and Twine! Isn’t this the best back-to-school gift you can give yourself!? Anne has designed for the kits in the past, she made these, which were a huge hit.  

I am awe-struck by Anne once again. This shell stitch design is absolutely gorgeous. Anne is, of course, well-known for taking classic designs and making them fresh and modern while still remaining timeless. Her results are always spectacular and unexpected. She has definitely succeeding in dazzling with these shell stitch crochet espadrille sandals. I’m so honored to be able to offer this kit, you guys! 

Anne’s natural teaching ability shines thought with her detailed, full-color instructions for this project. Note, however, this is not designed as a beginner crochet project. You will want to have some experience with crochet before you attempt to create sandals. The PDF does not teach you how to crochet. That said, Anne’s vast experience teaching will guide you though how to create this gorgeous shoe.
