Flat Ruching Stitch

"You can use any yarn and a hook size that gives the right tension to the stitches. Use any number of starting chains depending on the width you'd like. This is a NEW stitch pattern you won't find anywhere else and it creates a modern look to crochet rows. It's quick and easy to learn. If you know how to crochet the single crochet stitch in front or back loops, you'll be able to do one of these rows as easy as pie."
