The Side Saddle stitch is a great option for crochet projects that need texture, movement, and style.
You’re going to love working with the Side Saddle Stitch – it’s such a fun one to do!
The best part is how it creates this amazing texture while still keeping the fabric nice and flexible.
It’s become super popular with crocheters everywhere, and I can see why – you can use it for basically anything. I’ve seen gorgeous blankets, cute vests, practical washcloths, and even some really stunning handbags made with this stitch. It’s definitely worth adding to your crochet repertoire!

What I love about the Side Saddle stitch
Do you know what’s really cool about the Side Saddle stitch?
Even though it’s just made up of basic stitches – your singles, doubles, and chains – it creates something unique.
When you look at it head-on, you get this beautiful geometric pattern, but just wait until you see it from the side! That’s where the magic happens – the texture is absolutely stunning from that angle. It’s amazing how these simple stitches come together to create something so special!
