Crochet with Aabhar – Crochet Leaf Stitch
Crochet Leaf Stitch creates an open and airy fabric with scattered leaves all around. It almost looks like a variant of filet crochet with the perfect arrangement of dc stitches.
It is a simple crochet pattern that includes a series of double crochet stitches connected with chains to create the elegant ‘leaf’ motif. Crochet Leaf Stitch is a 6-row repeat pattern, with 23 stitches making up a pair of leaves.
Crochet Leaf Stitch is perfect for projects with large surface area such as blankets, wraps, and scarves. And, working with medium to light weight yarn will best showcase this design. A thicker yarn weight will not have the same effect and drape.
