This Lacy Arrow Crochet Stitch is a beautiful textured crochet stitch that looks like arrows pointing down. It’s so easy to do once you get to row 6 then it’s a simple 2 row repeat that makes whatever you make form it look amazing! I loved it so much I had to make a Cardigan out of it. My daughter loved it!

Sewing your Pieces Together
For the shoulder measure down 13 1/2 cms or 5 inches and place a stitch marker. Once marked start sewing your shoulder closed with your preferred method, best to mark Again make sure the wrong side of your project is facing you and both good sides are facing each other.
For the Sleeves
You will need stitch markers to measure 17 & 1/2 cms or roughly 7 inches down from shoulder and place a stitch marker.
Then sew your pieces together with the wrong side facing and both good sides are facing each other. Attach your yarn where you marked and using the single crochet or sl st method, sew down the side.
Measure your collar the same way. Measure down 13 1/2 cms or 5 inches on both sides.
