December 2012 Stitch of the Month Crochet

This is an easy and fun stitch to try.

Multiples of 6 chain plus 2.

For sample chain 20 (3 x 6 + 2 = 20)

Row 1: 1 sc in 2nd ch from hook, * ch 5, skip 5 ch, 1 sc in next ch, repeat form * across, ch 1, turn.

Row 2: 1 sc in first sc,* ch 5, 1 sc in next sc, repeat from *  across row,  ch 1, turn.

Repeat Row 2 until square or desired length.

These would make nice curtains if crocheted with a thinner yarn.  Or even place mats, and run ribbon thru the ladles.
