In this step-by-step crochet stitch tutorial I show how to make the extended sedge stitch. This crochet stitch tutorial includes photo instructions and a video tutorial (see below). For this crochet stitch you should know how to make a single crochet, a half double crochet and a double crochet. The extended sedge stitch is a repeat of one row. It is a reversible crochet stitch and it looks the same on both sides. The fabric has a beautiful texture!
For this tutorial I use Hjertagarn DIAMOND mercerized cotton 100% 8/4 50g, color: 1361 (grey), and a 2.0 mm hook.
