Thanks for sharing these great tutorials, I’ve been crocheting for years but only every used basic stitches – these inspire me to try new things.
I love your stitch tutorials. They are clear, well-illustrated and easy to follow. I also love that the stitches are unusual and interesting and can often visualize them in a yarn I have in my stash.
Love this stitch pattern for dishcloth. You have so many great free patterns to choose from.
This pattern can make a very warn, thick throw.
Seems like an easy enough stitch to do some washcloths with
