A lacy crochet stitch creates a lightweight, open fabric. Some open, lacy crochet stitches I like are the triangles and cones lace stitch, the snowflake stitch, the lacy shell stitch, the angel stitch, and of course the trusty V stitch. To make something look lacy, you choose double crochet stitches (dc) or longer stitches like triple crochet (tc). You also use chains and other ways to add space to the pattern. In the Floret Lace Scarf pattern, we create flower “petals” with simple double crochet stitches.
