Crochet Little Flower Stitch

Material Needed:

• Lightweight yarn (number 3)
• 5 mm crochet hook
• 6 mm crochet hook

Pattern Overview:

• Difficulty: Easy
• Pattern Type: 2-row repeat
• Project Suggestions: Great for blankets
• Yarn Type Used in Video: Lightweight yarn (number 3)
• Recommended Hook Sizes: 5mm for tighter spacing (original), 6mm for looser spacing (tutorial demonstration)

Setup:

Create a Slip Knot:

• Use your preferred method.

Start Chain:

• Chain an even number of stitches. For the tutorial example, chain 16.

Row 1: (Setup Row)

Begin:

• Single crochet into the second chain from the hook. (The loop on the hook is not counted.)

Pattern Repeat:

• Chain 1, skip 1 chain, single crochet in the next chain. Repeat from to across until 2 chains remain.

Finish:

• After the last repeat, chain 1, skip the penultimate chain, single crochet in the last chain.

Row 2: (Pattern Row)

Start:

• Chain 1 and turn your work.

First Cluster:

• Pull up a loop in the first single crochet, chain-1 space, and next single crochet, so you have 4 loops on the hook. Yarn over, pull through all 4 loops, chain 1.

Pattern Repeat:

• Repeat the steps to create clusters across the row. Always start the next cluster with the single crochet you ended the previous cluster with.

Finish:

• On reaching the end, instead of chaining 1 after the last cluster, do a single crochet in the last stitch to complete the row.

Returning to Row 1 Pattern:

Chain 1:

• turn your work. Your first single crochet goes directly below the chain. Chain 1.

Identify Smaller Gaps:

• Look for smaller gaps which are your chain-1 spaces from the previous row 1. Each single crochet in this row will go into these smaller gaps.

Continue Pattern:

• Skip the larger gaps and single crochet into the smaller ones. Chain 1, skip, and into the next small gap.

Finish:

• At the end of the row, instead of a chain 1 space, if it's difficult, go through the first loop of the clusters from the previous row for your last single crochet.

Repeat:

• Continue alternating between the pattern established in Row 1 and Row 2 for the desired length.
• Always end a Row 2 by returning into the same last single crochet to finish, which sets you up for Row 1.
