Overview & Special Stitches
The Crochet Cloud Stitch is a 2 row repeat that creates a soft, squishy, and textured fabric that’s perfect for cozy blankets, scarves, and more.
Stitches used:
- ch
- ss
- sc
- dc
- csc (cloud stitch cluster)
Special Stitch: Cloud stitch cluster
YO (yarn over), insert hook into designated st, YO and pull through st, YO and pull through 2 loops, (without yarning over!!) insert hook into the same st, YO and pull through all the loops on your hook (there should be 3).
Note:
The tops of the cloud stitch clusters will tend to curl towards the back. Be mindful of this as you sc into the tops in the subsequent rows.
Foundation Chain
Chain any even number.
