Lacy stacked V stitch

In this free step-by-step crochet stitch tutorial I show how to make the lacy stacked V stitch. This stitch is a lacy crochet stitch. The fabric turns out light and breathable. It is also a reversible crochet stitch that looks the same on both sides. The lacy stacked V stitch works great for shawls and wraps, lightweight scarves, lacy crochet summer tops and tanks, market bags and other summer crochet projects.

This crochet stitch tutorial includes detailed photo instructions. The lacy stacked V stitch is a one-row repeat. For this crochet stitch you should know how to make double crochet. It is very easy to make and suitable for crochet beginners.
