The Basketweave stitch is a great textural pattern stitch. It uses front post and back post stitches to create a woven effect throughout the fabric, and works up quite thick. This pattern is great for washcloths, afghan blocks and projects where you want bold texture.

The Posts and Shells Stitch is a lovely stitch with vertical columns of feminine shells. It’s a great stitch for blankets, washcloths, and scarfs.
