The story behind this stitch is actually kind of ironic.

I was first experimenting with it in a sweater design. In fact, I made this a sweater with it, only to realize in the end it was too small for me. 🙁

In the end, it turned out for the best! I made the rectangular panel into a pillow, which can be found for free on the blog.

Take a look at the Knit-Look Pillow below; you can easily put the Blue Frost Stitch to good use with this pattern!

Of course, I also ended up putting the stitch pattern to use by making this tutorial!

This stitch was actually apart of the Desert Blossom Stitch Along, a huge crochet-along I ran in the past. We had so much fun learning a whole host of new crochet stitch patterns!

Now, you can find all the stitches I taught in one big list HERE. You don’t want to miss learning a bunch more beautiful stitches!

As far as the Blue Frost stitch itself, I wanted this stitch to display awesome texture, along with simple stitches.

You’ll get to learn how to make puff stitches, while also learning the woven stitch, a special crochet stitch that looks like knitting!
