[SIZE=16px]Hello everyone! Today we’re working on the Tunisian Lattice Stitch & Diagonal Lattice Stitch
A Video tutorial for the Lattice Stitch is available from Mode Bespoke
Video tutorials for the Diagonal Lattice Stitch are available from Hookloopsarah Crochet & TL Yarn Crafts
Note: Many of the video tutorials I found don’t necessarily indicate the differences in the names of the stitches in the title.
The Tunisian Lattice Stitch is made with the Tunisian Simple Stitch either 2 together or 3 together depending upon the version used. Both are made over a 2 row repeat. It creates a highly textured, visually stunning fabric. Both versions have a slight curl and tend to pull towards the center of the fabric. A loose tension is recommended. The Tunisian Lattice Stitch creates a large pattern while the Tunisian Diagonal Lattice Stitch creates a smaller, more delicate pattern.[/SIZE] [HR][/HR][SIZE=18px]Written instructions (Tunisian Lattice Stitch) :[/SIZE]

I tried this stitch several times and still don’t feel likeI really have it figured out. I’ll work on it again when I’m not trying to do all my Christmas knitting. I want it to go in my baby sampler blanket but it will have to be later.
