Truly love this pattern – and seems this would be a good project for beginners in learning the basic crochet stitches. Thanks for sharing! This is my next project.
Hi Kathy,
Stitch Multiple: multiple of 12 stitches + 1
Hope this helps!
Have fun 🙂

I know some of your comments have ask if you could make this stitch or this pattern on a larger scale, I would love to make a baby blanket using this stitch, what would i use on multiple of, or can you, this is my second pattern I have found of yours, such pretty work.
wow this is so pretty. I cannot wait to try it.
Interesting pattern, will have to try this soon.
You have allot of nice stitches on you site. Have you ever found a cable stitch? Like on a fisherman’s sweater. I always see patterns for knitters but not for crochet.
Hi Georgenia 🙂 Thank you! I am not sure though if this one would make a good dishcloth. It isn’t as solid as it looks with the taller stitches. There is a version using single crochet though which might work better – I will add it to our Thursday Let’s Learn A New Crochet Stitch List. Thanks! Rhondda
I love this pattern!! My mom makes me dishcloths all the time and I’ve always wanted to reciprocate with something different and this fits the bill completely. Thanks.
