Cozy Alpine Plant Pot Cover
"Alpine Stitch:Traditionally a 4-row repeat pattern where rows of dc and fpdc stitches are alternated with rows of sc stitches to create a beautiful textured diamond shape pattern on one side and a flat defined pattern on the other side. Because of the way this pattern is written in the round, the sc rows have been omitted and simply works alternating rows of dc/fpdc and fpdc/dc. As a rule of thumb (but not always), if the stitch below is a dc, then work a fpdc. If the stitch below is a fpdc, then work a dc."
