Also known as the Lemon Peel Stitch, it is a very easy one row repeat which gives a very gentle texture to the finished fabric - ideal for dishcloths, wash clothes, clothing or ANY project you can think of! Perfect for your crochet stitch library 🥰

In the video I show you step by step how to crochet the stitch and how to finish the last row for a nice straight edge.

For my sample in the photos / video, I used Hobbii Cascata Yarn in the colour “01” with a 6mm Hook

• Ch = Chain

• SC = Single crochet

• DC = Double Crochet

• Rep = Repeat

• St = Stitch

Pattern multiple: 2 plus 1

Row 1: Create your desired chain length

SC into the 2nd Ch from your hook. I prefer to use the back bumps of the chain for this pattern but it is entirely optional.

SC into each ch across.

Row 2: Ch1. Turn work. (ch1 does not count as a st)

SC in the first st.

DC in the next st.

* alternate between SC and DC along the row *

Rep * * until the end - you will end on a DC in the last stitch,

Keep repeating Row 2 until you reach the length you desire - changing colours every 2 rows

SC into each stitch across to row

Tie off, and weave in any loose ends.

Happy Crocheting!
