Textured Ribbon Candy Crochet Stitch

Alright my friends, I can't say enough about adding texture to your crochet projects.  I just love, love, love it!
Years ago, I designed the Diamond Christmas Tree Skirt using what I learned as the Brick Stitch when I just just a kid.  It's a quick stitch to create fast projects and is the basis of C2C crochet projects.    It has been my biggest selling pattern By Far!  

I love that it gives a wavy look when worked in stripes but can easily be rounded off with a straight edge when needed.

Then, to do something different in C2C style, I designed the Ribbon Candy Blanket for my nephew when he was born.  I just adore the swirling ribbon look this stitch gives when worked in larger sections.  It's just so pretty!

And now, we have the best of both worlds!!!  The pretty ribbon look with added texture 😊
This quick video will show you how to work the Textured Ribbon Candy Stitch that I use in my Textured Ribbon Candy Blanket & Textured Ribbon Candy Christmas Tree Skirt crochet patterns.   
Be sure to follow the actual written directions within your specific pattern for best results as I may make some slight adjustments between patterns. 

The first thing to understand for this stitch is that you'll work both colors in the same direction before turning to work the next row.  
I think you'll love this one!  So grab your yarn and hook and jump right in to a fun new project!
