Is there anything more comforting than working on big, thick and cosy stitches? I don’t think so. Which is why I’m thrilled to share my latest stitch tutorial with you. The Herringbone Treble Crochet is a beautiful sturdy stitch that creates a warm, dense fabric that’s ideal for projects that need a little weight behind them. This terrific textured stitch isn’t all substance and no style either, just look at that beautiful detail. Ready to learn? Grab your hook and your favourite chunky yarn and let’s go!
