Trying to learn new ways to use the basic stitches is one of the many things I love about crochet. I continually strive to find ways to implement the 6 Basic Stitches into my patterns. I’m always on the search for new stitches, both easy and more difficult. The beginner friendly Elizabeth Stitch, also known as the Mini Bean stitch, uses steps of the basic stitches and adds beautiful texture to even the simplest projects.
