Golden skies, and warm summer days are the perfect excuse to grab a good book, blanket and a wide-brimmed sun hat and head to your closest field. In my opinion, there’s nothing better than lying in a wild meadow, curling your toes in the green grass whilst enjoying a good read –  or starting work on that next exciting crochet project you’ve been dying to get at!

Inspired by my love of the great outdoors I couldn’t help but want to share this fun stitch with you all… The ideal stitch to use while relaxing due to it’s simple steps!

The Modified Sedge Stitch creates a dense yet gracefully textured design… Perfect to use when crocheting those cosy scarves and snuggly baby blankets, as this stitch is reversible and works up into a delightfully warm fabric!

Learning a new crochet stitch or technique is always such fun, don’t you agree? If you’re keen to challenge yourself this weekend, you’re in luck as this helpful step-by-step video tutorial will guide you through all the necessary steps needed to learn the “Modified Sedge Stitch“; In an easy to follow speed!

    Would this stitch make a baby blanket too heavy for a baby if baby yarn were used?
    What kind of edging would you suggest using if making a baby blanket?
    Thanks very much, really pretty pattern!
