Crochet Crossed Cluster Stitch – Today I have added an new stitch to my stitch library, this one is a textured pattern that can be used for many projects including cowls, scarves and shawls etc.
Cross stitches are stitches that you work across the back or front of a stitch in an equal number.
I have added a dc/tr stitch between each cluster to allow some give to the design.
Made in pretty pastel colors, this gorgeous stitch is very versatile and can be used for lots of items around your home.

Hope you make some lovely things with this stitch, the yarn I used was Red Heart Soft Baby Steps for the samples in the colors Light Blue and Strawberry
