Crystal Waves Stitch; (Raised Textured Group Stitch)

The Crystal waves stitch creates a very unique and fun texture! One that resembles waves, hence its name. The stitch used the front post single crochet, double crochet, and chain stitches, so it is a pretty easy stitch to master. If you have a good gasp of those basic stitches, this stitch should be in your stitch library. The texture that is created is soft, warm, and cozy. The stitch invites you to snuggle down and get comfortable, making it a great stitch for baby blankets, scarves, and throws.
