Today I am sharing a few really pretty stitches that I have enjoyed using in some of my patterns. They are called the Cross Cluster Stitch, and the Beginning Cluster Stitch. These stitches will give your crochet projects a fun texture.
The Beginning Cluster stitch is used at the beginning of a row, and so I am sharing it first. Scroll down just a bit and you will find the Cross Cluster Stitch.
Beginning Cluster:
Ch 3
Wrap your yarn around your hook
Insert your hook in the same st
Pull up a loop (you will now have 3 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around the hook and pull through 2 loops (you should now have 2 loops left on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around your hook and insert it in the same stitch
Pull up a loop (you will now have 4 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around your hook and pull through 2 loops (you will now have 3 loops left on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around your hook and pull through all 3 loops on your hook. You have just made a beginning cluster!
Cross Cluster:
Wrap your yarn over your hook and insert it in the stitch indicated
Pull up a loop (you will now have 3 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn over your hook and insert it in the stitch indicated
Pull up a loop (you will now have 3 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around your hook and pull through 2 loops on your hook (you will now have 2 loops on your hook)
Wrap yarn over your hook again, insert it into the same st, pull up a loop (you will now have 4 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around the hook, pull through 2 loops (you will now have 3 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn over, and insert it in the previous stitch (the one you just skipped, where the arrow is)
Pull up a loop (you will now have 5 loops on your hook)
Wrap your yarn around your hook and pull through 2 loops (you will now have 4 loops on your hook)
Now, wrap your yarn around your hook and pull through all 4 loops on your hook. You have now made a cross cluster!
I will be sharing a free crochet project using this stitch very soon!
I used this stitch for my Hailey Newsboy Cap Pattern, and for my Hailey Diaper Cover Pattern. I am sure you will probably see it in future patterns as well. Have a great day everyone!
