I believe what you’re doing is actually a yarn under. I’m going to have to try this to see if it looks differently done with a yarn over. Regardless, it’s a lovely stitch.

Thank you so much for this pattern! I appreciate how simply you explained it, and I love how fun and original the stitch turns out. I’m using a lighter weight yarn and my project is looking great! Thanks again 🙂

Hi Jess! Thanks for the awesome video! I'm a new crocheter, and I can't wait to try this stitch! What size crochet hook did you use for this pattern?

Hi there! I love this stitch and have been working it for a baby blanket. I am an experienced crocheter but for some reason mine is not turning out with the same directional herringbone slant as yours. I rewatched the video and the only difference I see is that I stitch tighter than you do. Would that make the difference? Are your stitches fairly loose? Thanks so much for any wisdom you can give!

I AM trying this stitch with a blanket but the blanket keeps getting wavy? Is this normal or am I doing something wrong ?

In reply to Heather. Hey Heather, I haven't actually, but this google search resulted in some pretty good images in different weights. Might give you an idea of how it could look. :) Happy crocheting! Jess

Have you ever tried this pattern with a lighter yarn that isn't bulky?

Hi Jess!

This is a great stitch I can't wait to try! I'm confused though... I my grandma taught me the double crochet like: yarn over, pull through chain or stitch, yarn over, to front (3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull through 2 loops, yarn over, pull through 2 loops... Have I been remembering the right stitch or have I mixed up the double with the 1 1/2?

Thanks!
Laura

I do all of my yarn overs from the back, so I'm wondering if the stitch will come out looking like yours, or like a completely different stitch? I haven't tried it myself, yet.....

In reply to Kathryn Horn. I think everyone does yarn overs slightly differently. I didn't do them any differently for this stitch/video than I do for any other crocheting. :)

You didn't mention that your 'yarn overs' are from the front and not the usual wrap from the back for this stitch.
