The bead stitch is a fun textured stitch pattern made with just yarn but no actual beads. This is a great stitch for blankets, rugs, handbags, hats, scarves, or anything where you don’t want an open lace pattern – but are looking for something more than just a plain stitch.
The crochet bullion stitch border is a fun edging for a blanket, shawl, scarf, and more. It is made with a modified bullion stitch done around a chain. It forms a nice shell or scallop border along a crochet or even knit item. It definitely has a 3D puffy look to it, so it adds some interest to blankets and especially scarves.
The crochet wave stitch is a pretty simple stitch pattern. It produces a neat wavy and 3-dimensional (3D) look to the fabric. I like using this stitch pattern in blankets, scarves, shawls, and handbags. It would also make a nice stitch for a garment such as a sweater, cardigan, and more.
Here’s a fun way to crochet a chromatic phone case for your cell. Start with two solid granny squares, turn them, and sew them together. Makes a nice gift!
