The sample is made with 4-ply worsted weight yarn and a size H hook.
Supplies:
You will need a sz H crochet hook and worsted weight yarn.
The pattern:
This week's pattern came from Knitted
Threads
To Make the square shown
Start with a base chain of 31 and work until it is square.
Review:
This stitch is realatively easy. It shows up better though with a solid
color of yarn rather than the varigated I choose for this sample.
There's lots of texture and the color changes in the yarn hide that.
It makes a nice solid fabric which wont catch easily on fingers.
And as with other stitches at Knitted Threads, the instructions are really
easy to follow. The only thing I don't really like about this stitch
is that the top and bottom edges end up scalloped which makes it a little
difficult to use for a sampler square.
Uses:
Afghans, sampler squares, dishcloths, scarves, eyeglass cases, etc.
