Tunisian Crochet Nautilus Stitch
While I was stitching up a Tunisian Ripple Baby Afghan, I started wondering what would happen if I just did the top of the rise and the valley, omitting the straight lines: just the 3-up and the 3-down. The Nautilus Stitch Pattern is the outcome of that thought process.
This Tunisian crochet pattern is made up of a 1-row repeat. Ordinarily I would say that’s an Easy skill level (2 out of 4), but not this time. Because that one row has so many stitches in the same row, I’m moving this one up to Intermediate.
