Crochet Bar Stitch Written Pattern

How to Crochet the "Bar Stitch" - in the video tutorial I take you step by step through this fab textured stitch and show you how to change colour.

This stitch would be AMAZING for blankets - with a beautifully flat back, straight edges and awesome texture on the front - it would look stunning in a single solid colour.

An easy 2 row repeat (once you get past the first 3 set up rows 😉)
