Equis Crochet Stitch - learn

The Equis Stitch is a crochet texture with an interwoven motif created by combining double treble crochet stitches, chains, and slip stitches. Its design creates a geometric pattern with relief and a delicate openwork effect, making it ideal for adding a special detail to spring and summer garments and accessories.

This stitch is worked using a simple two-row repeat, which makes the sequence easy to memorize once the crossing stitches are mastered. It is a perfect choice for creating lightweight, breathable fabrics with a beautiful textured finish.
