Crochet Patterns for Kids

The popcorn stitch tutorial is an intermediate level stitch. It is the biggest I’ve seen out of all the bubble shaped special stitches. The popcorn stitch can be used for so many projects and is used for in many of my crochet patterns. The example in the photo simply shows popcorn stitches spaced out with single crochets. It has a lovely, thick, 3D texture. Although the popcorn stitches are only visible on one side, you can easily pop them through if you change your mind.
