How To Crochet The Modern Granny Stitch
"Learn how to crochet the modern granny stitch. It works up fast and is easy to memorize. Once you establish the foundation row, the subsequent stitches elegantly align with those of the preceding row, creating a logical and intuitive rhythm. Every other row is a series of triangles nestled in between each other which gives this a modern feel. With this easy stitch pattern, crochet becomes an inviting and journey for a beginner as each row seamlessly flows into the next. However, this pattern is a fun one to work even if you are an advanced crocheter. "
