Acorn Crochet Stitch | Crochet with Aabhar
Acorn crochet stitch is a four-row, five-stitch repeat pattern that creates motifs essentially resembling the smooth oval nut, Scrat’s favorite (from Ice Age)! It is a simple stitch where all you need to know are single crochet and double crochet stitches. Each ‘acorn’ motif is made with 3-dc cluster.
The crocheted fabric has an amazing texture but it is a bit dense. So make sure you factor that into any project you plan using this stitch. We suggest trying out this pattern in making gorgeous market bags and purses.
