Thanks for the picture diagram right in the front page. Easy for crocheters. The stitch looks complicated but looks easy when following the diagram. Well to make the actual project is to believe.

I have been crocheting for many years, but the popcorn stitch has always been a problem for me. This will make it easier for me to understand. Thank you.

This is NOT a 'popcorn' stitch, it is a 'puff' stitch. A 'popcorn' stitch is done by working 5dc in the same stitch, then drop the loop from hook, insert hook into the top of the first dc and pull the dropped loop through then ch1 to close. I have been crocheting for 60+ years and I am puzzled at how many patterns are using the wrong name for so many stitches. Therefore I am in the processing of writing a book showing the different stitches and patterns to use them in.
