Supplies:
You will need yarn and a hook for that size of yarn (or thread would
work too).

Review:
This stitch is extremly easy once you get started. It's just
the second row of the pattern which repeats, so there isn't a whole lot
to remember. You also work into the ch 2 loop all the time, so you
don't need to worry about working into a stitch in the previous row.
The fabric is pretty solid and much like the shell stitch. As you
can tell though, the pattern doesn't really stand out all that well with
a multicolor yarn.
Uses:
Afghans, sampler squares, dishcloths, scarves, etc.
