Crochet with Aabhar – Honeycomb Trellis Stitch
Honeycomb Trellis Crochet Stitch is quite visually similar to the knitting variation with the same name. The raised stitches (fpdc) form a trellis-like network on a background of half double crochet (hdc) stitches.
It is a complex crochet stitch involving the basic crochet stitches along with a variation of the front post double crochet stitch. The Honeycomb Trellis motif repeats over 8 stitches and 10 rows.
You can feature this highly textured crochet stitch in various home decor projects, such as table runners, mats, and cushion covers.
