Crazy Slanted Granny Stitch

Consider using a color wheel for your next crochet project. A color wheel is an artist’s tool that shows the relationship between colors and allows you to match colors beautifully. You can create beautiful yarn palettes and color schemes easily using some basic guidelines.

Here’s a crochet stitch that produces a nice shell stitch. It’s a relatively basic stitch that works nice for a blanket, scarf, shawl, and more. There is a nice lace effect formed by V stitches on one row, with the shells or fans above on the next row.
