Step by step photo tutorial on how to make a shell stitch #shellstitch #mandmcrochetdesignsphototutorial #crochettutorial
There are many different ways to make a shell stitch, and the designer will tell you what they want, some are done in double crochet, some in treble and I have even seen some done in double treble crochet, I have seen 3 stitch shells, 5 stitch shells, and even 7 or 8, a shell is usually done using an uneven number of stitches so that the next row has a “middle” stitch to use so that the design is balanced, but read your instructions carefully, because designers have their own unique way of writing a pattern.
I am making this tutorial, because one of my new patterns uses a 5 Double Crochet Shell Stitch in it, and because I am a visual person, I find photo tutorials help me work out how to do something new, so I thought I would make one for those of you who are new to crochet and want to learn the technique.
