How To Crochet The Popcorn Stitch
The Popcorn Stitch – Pattern Description
In today’s tutorial, I’m going to show you how to crochet The Popcorn Stitch.
The Popcorn Stitch is created with 5 incomplete double crochets joined at the top and can be designed so the bobbles stack on top of each other or an offset to create a diagonal textured pattern.
Today I will teach you how to crochet the stackable bobbles. To make the offset ones, dc above the bobble below and make a popcorn above the dc below.
Scroll down for the step-by-step written and photo instructions and the video tutorial I made for those of you who are visual learners.
