In this step-by-step crochet tutorial I show how to make the granule crochet stitch. For this stitch you should know how to make a single crochet. The granule stitch is very easy to make and it is suitable for beginners. This stitch is a repeat of four rows. The fabric turns quite dense but not very thick.
For this tutorial I use Soft FRAYA Cotton 8/4 100% Organic cotton 50g – 180 m yarn, color: eucalyptus, and a 2.0 mm hook.
