Fancy Picot Crochet Stitch Pattern
The fancy picot crochet stitch is a lacy pattern. If stitched using crochet thread, it would make nice doilies, place mats or a table runner. Stitched in worsted weight or baby weight yarn, it would make a nice sweater for a baby girl.
Any weight yarn with the appropriate size crochet hook. Our sample was made using worsted weight yarn and a size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook.
