In this free step-by-step crochet tutorial I show how to make the blossom grid crochet stitch. This stitch is a lacy crochet stitch. The fabric turns out light and breathable. It works great for shawls and wraps, lightweight scarves, lacy crochet summer tops and tanks, lightweight blankets and other summer crochet projects. This stitch can also be used in decorative crochet projects for the home.
This crochet stitch tutorial includes detailed photo instructions. The blossom grid crochet stitch is a two-row repeat. For this stitch you should know how to make double crochet. The tutorial below shows how to make a double crochet two together and a double crochet three together stitch.
