In this free step-by-step crochet stitch tutorial I show how to make the lacy tilted fan stitch. This stitch is a lacy crochet stitch. The fabric turns out light, breathable and elegant. It works great for shawls and wraps, lightweight scarves, lacy crochet summer tops and tanks, 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 lacy tilted fan stitch is a two-row repeat. For this crochet stitch you should know how to make single crochet and double crochet. It is very easy to make and suitable for beginners.
