In this free step-by-step crochet tutorial I show how to make the mixed woven mesh crochet stitch. This stitch is a lacy crochet stitch. The fabric turns out very light and breathable. It works great for shawls and wraps, lightweight scarves, lacy crochet summer tops and tanks, beach cover-ups, market bags and other summer crochet projects.
This crochet stitch tutorial includes detailed photo instructions. The mixed woven mesh crochet stitch is a two-row repeat. For this stitch you should know how to make double crochet and treble crochet.
