From the Publisher
Learn stitches including:
Waffle Stitch
A beautiful, deceptively easy to work stitch that produces a lacy, textured fabric ideal for scarves and wraps or larger projects like blankets and throws.
Silt Stitch
A stitch that is easy to work and grows quickly. The two-row repeat produces a softly sculpted fabric best worked in crisp cotton yarns and is perfect for large projects.
Arcade Stitch
Sometimes known as Wheatsheaf stitch, the Arcade stitch produces an instantly recognizable crochet fabric using offset clusters of doubles linked with a row of chains and single crochet.
Chevron Stitch
One of the most iconic crochet stitches. This simple pattern can be variously interpreted and there are infinite opportunities to create patterns using different colors in each row.
Blossom Stitch
Perfectly suited for hats, scarves, and gloves, this simple but beautiful pattern is easy to shape and works well not only in pale cotton-based yarns but also lace-weight yarns.
Herringbone Half Double Stitch
Often used in household items and accessories, Herringbone patterns are always popular, and the Herringbone Half Double creates a firm fabric with a smooth surface.
