If all you know is the crochet single and double crochet but you want to make something different, then the suzette stitch is for you. I really love stitches that look complicated and are dense but uses basic stitches put together.
If you want to try other stitches that uses the sc & dc stitches, you can check the houndstooth stitch or the griddle stitch.
The Suzette stitch offers a dense and thick fabric that best suits crochet blankets, sweaters & cardigans, scarves, kids clothes and many more projects.
