cool crochet

i found these crochet pieces from james coviello while browsing elle.com. i'm loving his color palette and use of layering.
i prefer the look of knitted items to crochet--they just seem to have a more elegant and not so crafty appearance. and knitting just makes more sense to me since all the stitches are on the needle and the actual rows are visible. (. . . and probably because i never really learned to crochet. . . i can do a basic chain, and that's about the extent of it. a crochet hook feels like a foreign object in my hand.)


* love the contrast of the peek-a-boo lace with the black tights and biker boots.
