Description
If you're looking for stitch inspiration, "Basic Crochet Stitches" brims with new and old stitches to delight crocheters of all skill levels. A single Cluster Crochet Stitch makes a great foundation pattern for a textured scarf; a Trinity stitch adds warmth to any afghan design. Or why not glam up a shawl with a striking Hexagon stitch? All swatches are worked in updated yarns, beautifully photographed and accompanied by easy-to-follow instructions.
