Crochet texture

In my various wanderings around the internet, I found this amazing collection by an amazing designer, Helen Rodel.  The videos are in Portuguese but subtitled in English.  I have been slowly altering my opinion of crochet over the past couple of years. I used to think crochet was too crafty looking to really have a place in the world of fashion design.  Lately, I've seen some very cool work by designers who have taken crafty crochet and used it in a fresh way to create some very modern fashion.  Helen Rodel has created a gorgeous and modern collection using the crocheted popcorn stitch (in knitting it's called bobble stitch).  Enjoy the videos!
