My favorite stitch is the V-stitch. It makes making blankets a snap

i must say i like all of your blog postings. not only are they informative and interesting, but a person [me, i hope]can win important things [like patterns for instance.]

one of my favorite crochet stitches is the twisted chain loop stitch.

i found it in ‘Crochet Your Way’ by Gloria Tracy & Susan Levin several years ago.

there is no link for this stitch that i’m aware of, but it’s easy to do.

2 row pattern repeat:
on a dc base make a chain [7 or more], then ss from back to front in the back loop of previous row, repeat across.
next row: do dc in the back loop across.

i use this in amigurumi for hair; in free form crochet for dimensional effect; for plush rugs and many other items.

keeping my fingers crossed,
nikki

I love making E. Hiddleson doilies and she was the Queen of the treble crochet. Sooooo, I guess that would be my favorite.

I’ve just re-discovered the afghan stitch, aka Tunisian crochet. No “holes”, and makes a nice background for embroidery or crocheted flowers!

Hi. My name is Sharleen. I am a crochetaholic.
I have been in love with crochet for 41 hears now. I love to try new (and old) things. I am always looking for a new stash of patterns. If I were to win them in your contest my husband would love you forever as it would keep me out of JoAnns for a while. At least away from their pattern books. Thanks for the opportunity!

My favorite stitch is Solomon’s knot. It is easy and creates a beautiful look.

I love to make o row of 3dc clusters, a row of dc’s and a row of sc’s. then by varying the color/order I can come up with endless possibilities for patterns.

For some crazy reason i love to do the single crochet maybe because with 3 boys i need something that really mindless to do espically if they start to fight about something I can run break it up and do what i love crocheting

My favorite stitch that hasn’t been listed or at least I didn’t see it listed is the reverse single crochet.. I love how it creates the looped around border–especially for non frilly things..

Hi JD. This is neat. I’ve found recently that I like tunisian crochet. My favorite stitches so far are the lace stitches. Instructions can be found here: http://chezcrochet.com/page18.html
A pic of three dishcloths I made using some of these can be seen here:
