I like learning new stitches and this Sedge Stitch Tutorial is a great way to learn how to do it. The 3 simple/basic stitches make a nice looking thick material. It will make a good dish cloth or face cloth. I like that there is a picture for every row showing just how do do it. I'll be making a few of these out of cotton yarn and think they would look nice in a cute basket. Great gift idea too. Thank you so much for sharing this free crochet stitch tutorial.
