Excellent question. Allow me to get back home and I will be able to answer your question. I want to make sure I have stitch counts correct in my head first. ❤️🧶
🤔 could you do the same stitch with hdc? Would the multiple be different? I know the last row would be different…just trying to figure it out as newbie who prefers hdc over dc.
I would think you could do this stitch in hdc. Usually you ch 2 with hdc instead of ch 3 the multiple would be slightly different, however I have not worked it out.
What about a hat?Can this stitch be done in a round, or a rectangle that can be connected - I’ve been looking for a more “ stretchy” crochet stitch for making hats. I’ve been using the half double, HDC.
You can try this. ch 1, sk first dc, sl st in next 3 dc, sl st in to ch sp, ch 3, 3 dc into ch sp, continue with pattern. I have not worked decreases in the is pattern. You might want to experiment with the decreases with a swatch before working on your project.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My grandmother made this stitch and I’ve been trying to figure out which of the many similar patterns it was that she used. The only question I have is ending the final row. How do you end so it’s not “wavy”?
Could you maybe do one more row along the top consisting of something like sc/hdc/dc or tr the thing,to make a triangle to fill in? My vcurrent project has leaves that do that kind of nonsense and it makes for a beautiful tapered shape. That might work here?
I have used this stitch on scarves and sweaters many times. Love
I am still newish to crochet and I just love how it can look so complex, but this turns out to just be a few dc that fell over. I love it
❤ beautiful, can't wait to try
Love it.Thank you
Angela wright Hi Ninja bunny I like the colors and that stitches are beautiful and I can do that ☺🐇❤💘💜💓🌹⚘
Thank you. What would you make with the slanted shell stitch?
Hi can you show how to join the patches please
Usually this stitch is not worked as squares and joined.
How do we finish off the end to give and even edge?
Thank you for this pattern. I would just like to add that if you keep your hook facing you, you will find it easier to work
Thanks. I appreciate your tip.
How do you add more squares.
This stitch is usually not worked as squares. I was demonstrating how to work the stitch by making a small piece.
Thank you for the tutorial!
How do you finish it off to make the last row flat?

Did you ever get an answer of how to make the last row flat ?

I have not done this stitch in the round but it probably can be done in the round.
I making a hat with this stitch. Any ideas how to decrease?

@@NinjaBunnyCrochet Thanks so much! I will try this!
So is the second row where you started with 4 double crochet a mistake or should it be 4 ?
Just want to get it right .
No, it should be 3 dc. That is a mistake.
@@NinjaBunnyCrochet thank you !

I ended up doing something like that to complete the blanket a long way back- thanks for the idea- I appreciate you helping.
Awesome way to finish a project. Great idea. These stitch tutorials are jumping off places to help get you started.
Awesome!
This looks so nice!!!Think it would make a really nice scarf maybe?
Thank you. A scarf would look nice with this stitch.
Hard to do need a better one for beginner
C2C is a process that often uses the slanting shell stitch. 😉 C2C can be worked with ANY stitch!
