I have a pattern for it...just wanted to make sure I'd be posting the right one! ;)

Daisy Stitch (half daisy stitch can be achieved by working on one side only)

chain an uneven number of stitches.

1st row: sk 1st chain. draw one loop through each of the next 4 sts, YO and draw through all 5 loops. Ch 1, draw 1 loop through the center of the group just made.

2nd row: Ch 3, sk 1st chain, draw 1 loop through each of the next 2 sts and

1 loop through each of the first 2 horizontal stitches of the previous row, YO and draw through 5 loops. Ch 1 and continue as with the first row.

The instructions are from a pretty old book, so I updated some of the language. I made a scarf out of this stitch before, and it's not nearly as intimidating as the instructions make it seem. :)

just in case' .

Ann in rctq... hope this helps you regarding the afghan picture you posted. As I said... this group is so helpful... the same as quilters I've known on-line and IRL (in real life).

scanning/editing can use some work but thought I would shareanyway. If anyone crochets I have posted a picture (unknown afghan) of an afghan my Mom did. I would like to to find this pattern but don't know the name of it. Would appreciate it if someone could help me out. Thanks Ann
