Corner to Corner Crochet
Build on everything you've learned so far to learn the corner to corner crochet stitch. This video incorporates parts of other stitch techniques to make a gorgeous design that looks great on crochet afghans. This crochet stitch video is great for someone looking for a challenge.
"Corner to corner (C2C) crochet is so much fun. The best thing about corner to corner crochet is that you can easily play with color to make gorgeous finished projects. You don't have to be a professional to create your own designs in C2C. My best tip? Plan your C2C projects with graph paper. If you think of each cluster of stitches like a square on a sheet of graph paper, you can create beautiful designs easily, no pattern required!" -Heidi Gustad from handsoccupied.com

Crocodile Stitch
This stitch has a really cool texture that looks like scales at the end, which is where it gets its name. Watch closely and you will be able to easily learn how to master this stitch as well. These look like fancy crochet stitches, but you don't have to be an expert to make these work.
"I love that this stitch LOOKS hard, but isn't. People are intimidated by the stitch, but once you break it down, it's very easy! Seriously, double crochets and chains worked around the post of a stitch, that's it. My favorite part of this stitch is the texture that it adds and can be used on a variety of projects from blankets to edgings. And when it's worked with a variegated yarn it just takes the show!" -Kristi Simpson, www.kristisimpson.net

Do you have updated software? And you probably need several different ones because different sites use different platforms. And maybe try a different browser. I have to use two different ones, because sometimes one won't work on a bank site or a shopping cart. Odd. But that's technology.

Very nice Crocodile stitch tutorial, would like to see a continued demonstration by wildtexspirit for rows 2 and 3. So far that is the easiest demonstration to follow I have found. Thank you.

I love the look of the crocodile stitch but haven't tried it yet. The crocodile stitch is a good stitch for booties, kids or adults. This is a good video tutorial. I'll definitely come back and watch it again!

You should have included Part 2 of the Basket Weave Stitch . . . what is shown in Part 1 doesn't show you how to negotiate the 2nd row. And that's where the basket weave is completed.
