Crochet is usually a bit faster than knitting, but the Solomon's Knot in this one requires a bit of delicate loop-making.
This was a new stitch for me, so I went searching for help and found a wonderful site. Here's a great story about Teresa Richardson, a self-proclaimed Crochet Geek. Richardson in Forbes Article. I first found Teresa on YouTube -- duh! In her wonderful videos I learned about the Solomon's Knot. The angles are good, the contrast is great, the yarn and hook are a size you can see, her voice is wonderful -- great place to learn a new stitch (or begin your crochet life.)
Here's a detail shot.

Many thanks to Teresa Richardson, who also answered my email. She may be a crocheter but she's good at knitting together the community.
