puff stitch

Description

In crochet patterns, ‘ps’ stands for puff stitch, a technique creating a soft, raised oval shape on the fabric surface.

Detailed explanation

The puff stitch produces a plush, bubbly texture that adds dimension and warmth to projects like blankets and beanies. It forms a thick cluster by pulling up multiple loops in the same stitch without finishing them individually. Due to the density of the loops, this stitch consumes more yarn than basic stitches. Maintaining loose tension is essential to allow the hook to pass easily through all loops during the final step.
