Im not overly fond of this stitch, but my senior ladies sure do love it. A few have even brought in their own afghans from back in the 1970s when this stitch was very popular. I will teach it if asked, and the former version of this post is what I used. The instructions are brief, so its easy to print them out on one page using large print. I also include a hand drawn chartalways looking to include new skills.
