Real Seashells **

It is with gratitude for the kind permission of  New Holland Publishing that I can post three pages of real seashell species with their names.  It is easier to imagine how to crochet and knit models of seashells when we have some images to view.

Pictures from "Australian Seashores in Colour" by Keith Gillett and John Yaldwyn,   1968.   

























There are a great number of valuable books on the market, describing Seashells worldwide;  eg
"Seashells of SE Australia", by Jansen, soft cover, 414 species, 47 colour plates.

"A Handbook to Australian Seashells", by Dr Barry Wilson
