Crossed Double Crochet Stitch (Free pattern)
In this short video tutorial, you will learn how to create this pretty crochet pattern using crossed double crochet stitch. Basically, you will skip one stitch (from the previous row of single crochet) and then do regular double crochet (DC). Next, double crochet into the skipped stitch. This simple technique creates slightly slanted DC stitches that form a cross, hence the name of the stitch: crossed double crochet.
This video tutorial was made using cotton yarn and “I Love This Cotton” yarn by Hobby Lobby and Crochet Hook 3.25mm. It is a smaller size hook than is recommended for this yarn but it makes the stitch nice and tidy. You can use a hook size that best fits your style. Truly, the name of this yarn correctly describes its quality. This cotton is so soft, durable, and just perfect for a crochet shrug.
Surprisingly, one of the skeins I bought had a slight defect but I was able to exchange it effortlessly. Generally speaking, Hobby Lobby’s yarn is of great quality for all your crochet projects.
Most importantly, the cotton yarn comes in 75 colors! AS you can imagine, you can pick any color to match the dress for which your crochet shrug is intended.
I’ve also loved crocheting cotton shrugs with ‘I Love This Cotton’ Sparkle yarn from Hobby Lobby. It is not scratchy and gives just enough sparkle for a more festive shrug.
