Oh wow, I really like the the look of this Fancy Shells Stitch Tutorial and Granny Square Pattern. It's a very beautiful stitch, that would make a lovely scarf or blanket! I'm not into making granny squares but I can see this made larger then life into a large blanket/lapagahan. The written, with pictures pattern is very easy to follow and easy. I'm looking forward to making this fancy shells stitch. Thank you so much for this free crochet tutorial.
