Are you talking about curlicues? If so, you can add those to any bootie pattern. YO 13 times? Can you share the details here with all of us about what kind of a stitch would require YO 13 times? I cannot picture it. Thanks. Here are the instructions for curlecues as found in the book Crochet For Dummies: make a chain the desired length. 3sc in 2nd ch fr hook. 3sc in ea ch across. Fasten off.

no, not curlicues. this was a coil type looking stitch. you would yo 13 times and pull through all of them at once. made a stitch that looked like a coil or a spring.

I think what you might be referring to is the bullion stitch. I will keep my eyes open for something like that.
