Subtle Lines Crochet Stitch Photo Tutorial
The Subtle Lines Crochet Stitch pattern is great for when you would like a clean texture that is not too overwhelming in your project.
The stitch that creates the texture in this pattern is one that, I’ll admit, I don’t use all that often! But it does have a great rhythm to it when worked and it is so easy.
The pattern itself is a four-row repeat, but don’t let that deter you. You will see that it is really easy! It will be a great technique for any crochet project and I look forward to hearing how you use it.

- To begin make a slip knot and make a foundation chain. For this stitch, you may use any number of stitches for your foundation chain. For example, ch 31.
Instructions
Row One: Dc in the 4th ch from your hook, dc in each st across. Ch 1, turn.
Rows Two, Three and Four: Yo sl st in the 1st st, yo sl st in each st across. Ch 2 (does not count as a st), turn.

And that’s it!
For the pattern, you will simply repeat rows 2-5 then fasten off and weave in your ends.
