This is a tutorial to learn the crochet V-Stitch, which is a lacy, open stitch that is great for lightweight scarves, headbands, blankets, clothing and bracelets. I have used it for both a headband, bracelet, and scarves and was very happy with how quickly it works up and looks. It’s very similar to the cluster [...]
