Welcome to Saturday Stitch Explorers! This week’s stitch is called the Triple Picot V Stitch! I know it’s not a fancy pretty name or anything, but the stitch itself is beautiful! It combines basic stitches to create an amazing open-work lace.

The stitches you will need to know to create this pattern are the single, double, and half double crochet (super easy for beginners!) I think I may create a vest with this stitch because it is so cool looking.

At first I was a little afraid to try it, because I seriously hate picot stitches, BUT, this is not your normal picot stitch (thankfully). It is a single crochet, then chain 3, and single crochet into the next stitch. I hope you enjoy these tutorials!

Complete video tutorial at of the Triple Picot V Stitch is at the bottom of post – for all the visual learners out there.

I hope you enjoy this stitch! Happy Crocheting!
