Lacy Fan & V Stitch - Crochet
Updated: Feb 2

This is a super beautiful lace crochet stitch that is actually quite simple. It's very similar to the Fan and V stitch, only lacy! It's light, airy and would absolutely gorgeous as a lightweight cardigan, a shawl or even a light throw. Below you will find the written instructions, as well as a pin to save to your boards and the link to the video tutorial. Enjoy!
Difficulty Level: Easy-ish

Stitches & Abbreviations Used:
Ch: Chain
Sc: Single Crochet
Dc: Double Crochet
Sk: Skip

Stitch is worked in multiples of 8+6 (+3 for the base chain)
For the YouTube video, I chained 25; for the green lace sample in the fingering weight yarn, I chained 41.
