Slanted Puff Shell Stitch Section
Design by Marie Segares/Underground Crafter.
The Slanted Puff Shell Stitch Section uses a puff stitch shell that tilts or slants in a different direction with each turn to the next row. If you like this stitch pattern, check out my Puff Stitch Pocket Shawl, which uses the same stitch.
This pattern is part of the Sectional Blanket Crochet Along, a mystery crochet along for a throw blanket crocheted in 7″ x 9″ (18 cm x 23 cm) sections, the size preferred by our charity partner, Warm Up America. New clues will be released on Fridays through December 16, 2022.
