In this step-by-step crochet stitch tutorial I show how to make the offset V stitch. This crochet stitch tutorial includes detailed photo instructions. For this crochet stitch you should know how to make a double crochet. The offset V stitch is a repeat of one row. It is a reversible crochet stitch and it looks the same on both sides. This is very easy to make and it is suitable for crochet beginners. The fabric turns out light.
For this tutorial I use Soft FRAYA Cotton 8/4 100% Organic cotton 50g – 180 m yarn, color: curry, and a 2.0 mm hook.
