Crosshatch Stitch 1
From the "Harmony Guide To crochet Stitches".
To see it in the book it is on page 26.
I am not affiliated in any way with this book. I just own a copy and really like it. Plus I needed to test some yarn from Caron and I decided to combine my time to design something for the site, work on this featured stitch and test the yarn all at the same time.
