Let’s learn to crochet! Here are stitch tutorials to help you along your crochet journey.
The alpine stitch blanket border is a great addition to any blanket. It has a slightly textured surface that looks beautiful in a solid color or with stripes.
Below you will find the written pattern and video tutorial for the Alpine stitch blanket border. We will also discuss the stitch count needed for the border and how to easily adjust your stitch count to use this border.
Crochet blankets are amazing on their own but if you line a crochet blanket with soft flannel fabric, it becomes so much more. In this tutorial, I am going to pull out my sewing knowledge from when I was a seamstress and give you all the steps for adding a liner to a crochet blanket. I have a video tutorial walking you through the process using a sewing machine and a second tutorial showing how you can hand sew the liner in instead.
I know everyone has a different level of experience when it comes to sewing and using a sewing machine. If you have any questions that are not answered by this tutorial, please leave them in the comments below.
Most borders require a certain number of stitches to work correctly, but the camel stitch blanket border does not. This means you can add this crochet blanket border to any blanket that you have made.
In this post you will find the written pattern for this blanket border as well as a handy video tutorial.
The bobble stitch is a great way to add texture and pizazz to a project. Learn to crochet the bobble stitch in the tutorial below and practice the stitch with the Soap Mat practice pattern.
The bobble stitch is such a versatile stitch it can be worked in several different ways. Below you can see the bobble stitch worked spread out and create a polka-dot pattern. The stitch can be worked in a grid-like pattern and you can change colors to make a graphed picture. You can also work the bobble stitches offset of each other like the diamond sample below.
I love the basic double crochet stitch. I really do, but make a tiny modification and you can improve it. That is where the Linked Double Crochet stitch comes in. It has the height of double crochet, works up almost the same, but does not have the gaps in between the stitches.
Though this stitch is not perfect for every project, I think you will love using it for several crochet projects. Just give it a try.
The moss stitch is one of my favorite crochet stitches. It is a beginner-friendly stitch and very beautiful. It only uses chains and single crochet and the crochet moss stitch square is another creative way to use this stitch.
Below you will find a video and written tutorial for the crochet moss stitch square. I will also tell you about the scrapghan blanket I am making using this technique. I will show you see where to change colors so that your rows are nice and even.
I have recently become obsessed with creating a crochet blanket border. There is just something about figuring out how to work around the corner and continue the pattern for several rows. I have several crochet blanket borders planned for the future.
If I had to choose a favorite stitch, the moss stitch would definitely be at the top of the list. This stitch very easy using only single crochet and chains. The almost mesh pattern in the moss stitch leaves the fabric with a beautiful drape while still looking solid.
If you think the moss stitch looks like the linen stitch and granite stitch, you are correct. The moss, linen and granite stitch are all names for the stitch I will show you below.
