Is the Honeycomb Shell Stitch Beginner-Friendly?
The shell stitch always looks interesting, but this one is very impressive with honeycomb cells around the shells. The beautiful textured look is achieved with post stitches that create distinctive vertical bars.
It’s not as complicated as it looks, however, I would recommend it for advanced beginners and intermediates and those who can read charts.

FAQ
What yarn works best for the honeycomb shell stitch?
The yarn you should use for this stitch pattern depends mostly on the type of project you’re going to make with it. If you plan to create a cozy blanket, go for medium-weight acrylic yarn like aran or worsted.
When making home accessories such as washcloths, cotton fibers will be your best bet. DK yarn, on the other hand, will ensure a more delicate look for decorations.
Can I use this stitch with multicolored yarns?
Yes, if you love gradient looks, ombre cake yarns will produce the effect you want. However, don’t fear using solid colors. They will show off the pattern texture just as well, and sometimes even better!
