Description

The blackberry salad stitch has a similar look as the popcorn stitch but it is made using a series of double crochet 5 together which for me, works up more quickly than the traditional popcorn stitch.

Materials and Supplies

Any weight yarn with the appropriate size crochet hook. Our sample was made using worsted weight yarn and a size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook.
