I met Lianka few years ago and she told me all about this stitch technique that she called the Crocodile Stitch. And since I’m insane in the membrane for texture I couldn’t believe my eyes. I was so happy that she was bringing this technique to the mainstream, and as you know, the Crocodile Stitch has really taken crochet by storm!! I’m so pleased to feature six of my fave designs by Lianka! Just click on the name to get the pattern.

PS: all these were free patterns at the time this roundup was compiled. Please forgive me if the designer has decided to change that status or even remove the pattern from her site.
