How to crochet the knit stitch & Knots Of Love

I crochet and knit, but, have completed more crochet projects because I find crocheting easier, and with  so many knit patterns I love, I've looked into  crocheting them instead.  My problem has been finding the equivalent knit stitch to crochet. Impossible?  NOT, thanks to  The Laughing Willow,  I believe she has invented it. There's a really clean look with stitches on the Surface Braid Hat she created. It's a really pretty beanie, or cloche hat as well as a chemo patient hat.  If you are up for the challenge, check out the Laughing Willow which includes a how to video.

Her blog mentions a wonderful charity, Knots of Love, where aside from money, crocheted and knitted caps for chemo patients and others facing life-threatening illnesses and injuries are donated.
