Crochet Spray Stitch, an easy textured crochet stitch
The Crochet Spray Stitch, also known as Blanket Stitch, has a similar look to the Lemon Peel crochet stitch. It is easy, textured, and reversible.
Like the previous patterns (listed below) the Spray Stitch is also a combination of single and double crochet stitches (US terms).
The stitch creates a bobble-like look, very neatly in straight columns.
It is such a versatile stitch and would probably make any crochet project look exquisite.
