The Alicia Beanie CROCHET PATTERN features a wonderful texture that is created by working a stitch called the leaf stitch. I love this crochet stitch! It is a post stitch, but worked almost like a puff stitch! The result is a stitch that has the texture of a puff stitch, but one that is elongated.  It is fun to work!
