You make this stitch with front and back post double crochet stitches, therefore, it uses quite a bit of yarn, but the beauty is worth it. It's an easy pattern to keep track of and works up quickly.

The pattern shows on both sides.

This pattern is a six row repeater and is worked back and forth, but you could easily work it in the round for a hat or a bag.

Use any yarn that you prefer and the recommended hook size.

Because it is so textured, it looks great in one color.

The skill level is Intermediate.

Stitches used:

Chain (ch)
