Cloud Crochet Stitch | Crochet with Aabhar
Cloud crochet stitch is a dense, nubby stitch with small, tightly packed bumps that looks like tiny clouds. The crocheted fabric looks soft and squishy, unlike most lacy crochet patterns.
Itโs a good stitch for washcloths, dishcloths, scarves, or anything needing a firm yet textured surface.
