YouTube Video Notes:

I show you how to do a drop stitch in crochet which resembles the same motion as Broomstick Lace but is slightly different.

I used a size 25mm [US 50] to better show the stitches on video. But the pattern calls for a size 19mm [US 35] needle.

Looking for more? I love making quick projects and even wrote a leaflet with Leisure Arts on how to do some fun things! If you too are looking for fun and quick projects go and check out the One Skein or Less book by Marly Bird.
