Sometimes you want to add some interest to your project by including a decorative stitch. An easy way is to incorporate Puff Stitches into your baby blanket, afghan, scarf, purse or motif.

The Puff Stitch is worked into one chain or stitch. Yarn over, insert hook into the space, yarn over and pull through a loop on your hook. Stretch the loops up. Repeat this process until you reach the number of desired loops on your hook. Depending on the pattern and how puffy you want the stitch, there could be 7, 9 or more loops on your hook. It is good to give the loops an extra stretch so you have room. Yarn over and pull through all the loops on your hook. Lock the puff with a slip stitch.
