Special Stitches

Popcorn Stitch

The popcorn stitch creates a raised, textured “popcorn” effect. Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Crochet 5 double crochet (dc) stitches into the same stitch.

Step 2: Remove the hook from the loop.

Step 3: Insert the hook into the first dc of the group.

Step 4: Grab the dropped loop and pull it through the first dc.

Step 5: Tighten the stitch and continue with the pattern.
