Crochet Weave?
I came across this picture in Aging Successfully, Fall 2009 (Vol. XIX, No. 2) Newsletter.
For those of us who love needle work the article, Zola, is also a sweet read (p. 15-16).
I love the look of this simply beautiful stitch.
Does anyone know its name? How do you do it?
I am going to ask the author of the article, Barb Tackitt, if she knows any more about this stitch. I will keep you posted.
UPDATE: (2009-DEC-14) With help from other Crocheters on Ravelry I think we have a solution. This is a picture of a woven fabric. The needle artist is adding an sc crocheted edge. It feels good to have a solution, but I am so unhappy that it was not a crochet solution.

That is beautiful, yet simple. I, too, was hoping for a crochet solution. Any good patterns for a newborn tunic-style dress? (They must be simple, too.)
Hi, when I saw your post I liked this pattern too. Im not sure if you found an answer since then but if you or anyone is interested, I wrote the magazine that published it and this is the response I recieved:
My mother used to crochet and I think she called that pattern Railroad. But I don't crochet and I suspect the name is an old one. It may have a more modern name now.

If you did find out what the stitch is, please share! I'll do some more research and see if I can dig something up.
I am sorry. But, this is a knit stitch called the WICKER PATTERN and it is a very easy stitch.
Here is a link to one of my capes that I have knitted with this pattern on the colar area,

Thank you

That looks an awful lot like Tunisian Crocheting.

This stitch looks similar!
I've done this stitch before and I love it. This is actually knitting, not crochet. The pattern "Cross Stitch Scarf" is from 101 Designer One Skein Wonders. Here's another image:

Hope this helps.
This is actually a loom woven piece. She is casting off the edges. I make squares to join together like this. Google potholder loom weaving and you will see images just like this.

Well as a weaver, knitter and crocheter. I am going to have to say that is crocheting the edge of a woven piece. very common edging technique used for triangle shawls such as the ones made on these looms http://www.hillcreekfiberstudio.com/
Hi.
I found this page / crochet stitch which might easily be adapted to look similar to this knitted wicker stitch (see Polly's comment): http://domihobby.ru/451-obemnyy-pletenyy-uzor-kryuchkom.html Although it's in Russian, it has very easy to understand photos of the stitch.
I'll try to simplify it, by doing 2 stitches instead of three, as it suggests. If I manage it, I'll send you a photo of the results.
All the best, and thanks for your blog!

I know this is an old post, but I just found it on pinterest. I think either way it is adding an edging, but I think it could easily be Tunisian crochet, aka afghan stitch, or woven. It's amazing how much Tunisian crochet looks like weaving. I saw one comment suggest it could be Tunisian and wanted to back them up. :)

Found this, which looks exactly as the photograph.

I don't know if you are still looking for this stitch, but there is a new weave stitch going around pinterest... it's knitting so it's probably not the same, but here it is!

Hi, I believe there is a crochet version of this stitch named "Bean Stitch" http://freevintagecrochet.com/how-to-crochet/bean-stitch
It's not exactly the same as the knitted version however it is very, very close :)
