Alpine Stitch Crochet Pattern | How To Crochet | Beautiful crochet stitch for blankets and cardigans

The Alpine Crochet Stitch pattern is another one of those beloved, classical stitch patterns that everyone should have in their repertoire.
It's irresistible because of its beautiful texture that I have had described to me as "little spruce trees." The Alpine Stitch is a popular stitch to use in blankets, cardigans and hats because of its warmth.
A free written copy of this crochet pattern can be found on my website: richtexturescr...
For this tutorial I will be using a little bit of a 100% acrylic, worsted weight yarn and a 5 mm crochet hook.
Thank you for watching!

The Alpine stitch is one of my favorite stitches.

This is a beautiful stitch. I am saving the video to make my first scarf & hat for the season. I donate to charity and use your stitches to elevate from boring to something special. 😊

[@agnieszkamarszalek8599]

I love that you donate your work. Any particular charity or random?

I look forward to trying this pattern.

Thank you for these easy to follow instructions. I'm in the middle of making a vest for the winter & my goal was to use this stitch.

GM ☀️ beautiful 😍 pattern thank you 👍🏾

[@emma-woodhouse-721]

Thanks for a very clear & easy to follow tutorial! Love this beautiful stitch. Now I’m really going to have to try it. I think I’ll try it with a much bigger hook for drape, as this looks like it could be kinda dense. Thank you again! ❤

[@sisterpamop]

Thank you. This, looks beautiful ❤.

Beautiful stitch

Thanks ❤

[@rebeccassmith4640]

You make such beautiful pieces! My question is this: many of your pieces appear to be yarn eaters because of their density so how much yarn (4 weight) do you typically purchase in order to make a blanket (around throw size of 50" x 60") with say, using a 5.5 mm or 6.0 mm hook? I would rather have a little left over rather than come up short.

[@maryharrison5883]

I made a large swatch using Red Heart Soft Yarn from my stash and used a 5.5 mm crochet hook. I followed a website that helps calculate how much yarn you will need if you use the same stitch throughout your project. If I calculated correctly you will need to chain 165 stitches, crochet approximately 180 rows and you will need at least 2306 yards of yarn. My 4 by 4 swatch was 13 stitches and 12 rows. The swatch I calculated from was 47 stitches and 24 rows. Hope this gives you a good starting point.

@@maryharrison5883 thank you! I think it will be very helpful. I appreciate your taking the time to reply to my question.

[@dvrmdmtdrbl]

thank you for yet another great tutorial, my trouble with Alpine stitch is the uneven edges with 1 ch for sc rows and 3 ch for fpdc/dc rows. I used a simple sc border around it but still looked a little uneven then put a slip stitch on top of the sc's and only then it looked kind of straight -do you have any preferred border suggestions to avoid spending more time/yarn on the border? Much appreciated.

[@adcbone13]

Hi, I love this stitch, but how do I have to modify it to make a hat out of it?

[@TawanaSpringfield]

How much yarn to buy for a 50x60 blanket 4 weight would be hard to guess. Love this stitch though.

[@BallroomMadeSimple]

Hi, what hook are you using?

[@shirleybusuttil5996]

Hello, I’m having trouble with the edges growing with a slant towards the the left. What am I doing wrong? I would appreciate any help. Thanking you, Shirley
