This is a digital PDF pattern with written instructions and photo guides for making a Corner to Corner (C2C) V-Puff square and rectangle. The V-puff stitch is a reversible stitch consisting of two puff stitches separated by a chain stitch in the middle. Working them in the C2C crochet method causes the rows of stitches to work up in a diagonal direction instead of horizontally. This C2C stitch variation can be used with any yarn and hook size to create a wide range of things in various sizes, from the small (washcloths) to large (scarves, blankets).
NOTE on curling: When working up a square or rectangle, you may notice that the corners curl up a bit. The curling is more noticeable with smaller pieces than larger ones. This is normal and should go away after blocking. I recommend making a test piece with your intended yarn and blocking it to make sure the curling is fixed.
