Materials Needed:
- DK Cotton Yarn
- 4mm Crochet Hook
- Note: The tutorial uses UK crochet terminology.
Stitches Used:
- UK Treble Crochet (equivalent to US Double Crochet)
- UK Double Crochet (equivalent to US Single Crochet)
Instructions
Starting Chain:
- Create a slip knot and place it on your hook.
- Chain in multiples of 15. For this tutorial, chain 45.
- Add 2 more chains for turning (these do not count as a stitch).
Row 1:
- Work a UK treble crochet (US double crochet) into the third chain from the hook, making sure to insert the hook into the back bumps of the chain.
- Continue working a treble crochet into each chain across the row.
- Double-check your stitch count; it should match your starting chains minus the extra 2 (e.g., 45 stitches).
Row 2:
- Chain 2 (this counts as a stitch) and turn your work.
- Work a treble crochet into the next space (not the one directly beneath the chain 2, but the one after that) and into the next 3 stitches. You should have 5 stitches including the turning chain.
- Chain 2, skip 2 stitches, then work a treble crochet into the next stitch.
- Chain 2 again, skip another 2 stitches, then work 5 treble crochets.
- Repeat this pattern across the row, ending with the specified stitch pattern.
For Row 3:
- Chain 2 and turn. This counts as the first treble crochet.
- Work another 3 treble crochets. You've reduced to 4 stitches from 5 at each pattern's start.
- Chain 3, then work a UK double crochet (US single crochet) in the following sequence: into the chain space, into the top of the treble crochet from the previous row, and into the next chain space.
- Continue the set pattern across the row.
Row 4:
- Chain 1 and turn. Work double crochets, starting directly under the chain. In this row, the chain does not count as a stitch.
- Follow the video's specific instructions to continue shaping the daisy's center and outlining petals.
Increasing Stitches (Row 5 onward):
- You will begin increasing stitches on the sides where the pattern had previously decreased, according to the video's instructions, ensuring symmetry in the pattern as you develop further daisies.
- Continue following the pattern's increases and decreases as outlined for creating the full Daisy Stitch effect.
To Continue:
- Repeat the pattern from the beginning (after the initial chain) to add more rows and expand your project.
