How to crochet: Popcorn Stitch

This stitch is called the popcorn stitch for a reason. It really pops out on the front of your work.

There are quite a few crochet patterns that incorporate this stitch. Sometimes the popcorn is crocheted in a contrasting color, which makes it stand out even more.

Be sure to check the pattern on how many double crochet stitches you will have to crochet for the popcorn. The abbreviation of the popcorn stitch is: pop or pc

You can find the video and photo tutorial of the popcorn stitch below:
