For the sample pictured above I have crocheted a base row with single crochet stitches, then worked in rows with front crossed double crochet stitches all the next rows to obtain this lacy textured crochet stitch pattern.

Each front crossed double crochet stitch is made of 2 double crochet stitches that are crossed!

The Multiple for the Front Crossed Double Crochet is 2!
That means that you will need an even number of stitches in the row.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

Front Cross Double Crochet (fcr-dc): skip 1 st, work 1 dc into the next st, work 1 dc back into the skipped st going in front of the last dc just made, inserting the hook from back of the work to the front.

This way the crossed double crochet stitches form a clear X, with no entangled stitches.
