Woven crochet stitch

Here we are sharing a decorative crochet texture, which can be applied to many crochet projects. In this Drops Video we show you how to: Start by working a chain row with an even number of chain stitches. Work a sc in 2nd ch from hook, ch1, skip 1 ch, sc in next ch, repeat from * across, turn. Row 1: ch 1, skip 1st sc, *sc in ch sp, ch1, skip 1 sc, repeat from * across, end row with sc in turning ch at beg of prev row, turn. Repeat row 1 for pattern. The trick as you keep working is to always keep inserting hook between the stitches, which looks like v's on previous row. To see a pattern with this technique go to: DROPS 128-25

Royal ridge stitches

Here we are sharing a double sided decorative crochet texture, which can be applied to many crochet projects. Perfect for potholders, scarves and other pieces that need 2 interesting sides. In this Drops Video we show you how to: We have already worked a chain row with an odd number of stitches, turned and worked a hdc in 3nd ch from hook, and 1 hdc in each ch across. The video start when it is 2 hdc left, work then 1 hdc in the last 2 hdc. Turn. Row 1: ch 2, work hdc in each hdc, but instead of working as usual through the 2 top loops, you work through the loop under the 2 top loops, end row with a hdc in turning ch at beg of prev row. Repeat row 1 for royal ridge pattern.

Crochet: Spiral pattern with stripes

In this DROPS video we show how to work a spiral pattern with stripes of single crochet (sc) and double crochet (dc). We've already worked 5 rows of 33 sc and assembled piece with 1 sl st so that when we start working we work round. * Work 1 sc in back loop of each of the next 7 sts, 1 dc in front loop of st from 2 rows below next st *, repeat from *-* the entire round. Pattern is over 8 sts and no of sts are divisible by 8 + 1. Work in the round without finishing the round, this way the pattern will automatically displace 1 st on every round and form a spiral pattern. REMEMBER - you will also need to read the pattern to be able to follow. To see a pattern with this technique, go to: DROPS 156-6
