In this step-by-step crochet tutorial I show how to make the tulip stitch. It is quite easy to make. The tulip crochet stitch consists of chains and single and double crochets and it is a repeat of one row. This stitch is reversible and it looks the same on both sides.
For this tutorial I use Järbo 8/4 100% Cotton Mercerized & Gassed 50 g yarn, color: 32018 (linen).
