The Triad crochet stitch has an interesting look and is essentially a puff stitch spread over 3 stitches. In this guide I show you how to make this stitch and how to use it for any size project.
I’ve chosen to use 2 different colours for my triads row and the single crochet row in between, but there’s no reason you couldn’t make this stitch in a single colour.
This stitch was featured in week 25 of my 50 Stitches crochet along
