How To Crochet Puff Stitch
You will begin by yarning over (YO) and inserting your hook into the specified stitch or space. Yarn over again and pull up a loop, extending it slightly taller than a standard stitch. Repeat this process 3 to 5 times in the same stitch or space, depending on your desired puffiness. You'll have several loops on your hook. Yarn over again, draw through all the loops on the hook, and then secure the puff by making a chain stitch. It's like working incomplete half-double crochet stitches. This delightful stitch creates a plush, textured pattern that adds visual interest and tactile warmth to any project, from cozy blankets to snug scarves.
