Amour Sequin Lace Kristin Omdahl’s latest book, Crochet So Fine: Exquisite Designs with Fine Yarns of Crochet includes three that use Tilli Tomas yarn.  The book is available through Interweave.
The Armour Sequin Lace scarf is  long enough to wrap around your neck a few times and are pretty enough to dress up a simple outfit instantly.  The pattern uses one skein of Tilli Tomas Sequin Lace.
Visage Beret This pattern calls for Tilli Tomas Symphony.  The stitch faux-ribbed brim of this beret is doubled, making it snug and warm, and the beaded yarn adds subtle sparkle that will complement many ensembles.  .
River Tunic Have you ever seen anything so stunning! Voile de la Mer is used in this pattern.

Kristin writes about the River Tunic

The border at the hem reflects the lacy chevron sleeves, creating balance and drawing the eye downward for a flattering, lengthening effect. Extra ease is worked into the hips with chains that also create an unusual seaming technique. The result is a comfortable, versatile, and elegant tunic.
