The Moss Stitch
This pattern features the beautiful yet simple moss stitch (aka “granite stitch”) worked in turned rows. It's relaxing to crochet on repeat and produces a nicely textured result. It's also a great stitch for showing off different yarn color changes every few rounds.Yarn
Any type of yarn fiber and weight can be used, along with a suitable sized crochet hook. It'll depend greatly on what you choose as your project. For example:
- Cup coaster - I used a medium weight 4 yarn (Hobbii Friends Cotton 8/8) and a 5mm crochet hook.
- Baby blanket - I used a jumbo weight 7 yarn (Hobbii Blanket Yarn) and a 20mm crochet hook.
If you're making a smaller project, such as a coaster or dishcloth, I recommend thinner yarns (e.g., DK or worsted yarns).
However, if you're making something larger and don't want to spend forever on the tiny, intricate stitches, use a super bulky or jumbo weight yarn.
