Do you like c2c crochet? If you are unaware of it, it is a crochet stitch that is worked diagonally from corner to corner, instead of row by row from right to left.
This Crochet uses treble stitches.
This method of working usually uses treble stitches because they are tall stitches and hold the pattern of the c2c together. You can use single, double or triple treble.

It is a popular and fun method of crocheting. You can use plain yarn and create multi stripes, use variegated yarn and make beautiful random patterns. This also cuts down on weaving in the ends (oh those dreaded pesky ends) I am addicted to and obsessed by this method of crocheting at the moment
