Learn to Crochet The Spike Stitch - Easy Crochet Tutorial
"The spike stitch is a great "next step" crochet technique to learn after you have the basics down. It adds the appearance of texture to a project without adding a lot of thickness to the material. This easy to follow tutorial walks you step by step through the process with written directions and photos. The tutorial recommends worsted weight yarn and size H or I crochet hook to learn. These are best to ensure you can easily see the stitches you are learning and working in."
