Block Stitch Crochet Tutorial

[@erical9526]

You have blessed my day! Your instructions are so clear and easy to follow, and your voice is so reassuring. I'm honestly surprised that you only have 45k followers (which is a lot but comparing to the noisy flashy have-to-fill-this-space crochet KZbinrs). I hope all crocheters stumble upon your site like I did today. And I truly hope that you'll add more videos -- and a patreon or a "buy me a cup of coffee" button or whatever it is so that we can financially support you as you build this channel.

She's showing you the pattern in the video. A very good video. Great instructions, nice work and good voice. Thank you

I’m getting back to my crochet infatuation after 25 year hiatus and I love this pattern!! I’ve done several rows and now I’m working on changing colors. Trial and error but it’s a lovely blanket stitch pattern. Thank you!

[@aksez2u]

Thank you! I really like a crochet pattern that works into the spaces. I can almost work without looking because I can feel where the stitch goes. Great for crocheting while watching TV or videos!

[@marthamurrell9113]

😂thanks from a 80 year old knitter who who has just discovered crochet and is Loving It ❤!! So far this stitch is my favorite. I’m making a blanket with it and using Lion Brand Mandala Baby Cake in Narnia the colors are just outstanding. I’m about halfway through my second cake. 590 yds each and just so soft!! I never get tired of it 😊 Your words and your voice make it so easy and pleasant! I will be searching for you again and again ❤😊 Thanks

Love this pattern gonna try it for sure, love how your voice isn’t rushing us threw, beautiful pattern great Tutorial

[@dawnquinn7964]

Haven’t crocheted for 50 years. Wanting to start again. Thank you for a very easy, beautiful pattern to motivate me.😊

[@kathleenkarsten156]

Did you start? I haven't crocheted in 45ish years, and I took it up again about 2-3 weeks ago. I just finished an adult blanket with Bernat Blanket yarn, and looking for a baby blanket for a gift. It's fun! I wish I never stopped. Yarns are so much prettier since back when we did it! Wishing you well!

[@mariehowlett25]

Thank you for showing how to create this wonderful pattern it is definitely going to be my new one to make a scarf and a blanket for this winter season

I am so happy to finally see someone else go into the back bump while starting, I’m not the only one! Yay!

[@carolleben3445]

Just started a blanket with this pattern, which intrigued me the moment I saw it. Beautiful! Works up quickly and a great way to blend in leftovers with a couple new dominant colors. Thanks for a fun new project!

[@shauntellesanchez9453]

Daisy Cottage Designs has THE best patterns. I made a baby blanket using a different pattern than the block stitch but it was simple enough for me to follow with. My cousin loved it and now I'm making another blanket for another cousins baby that was just born. I'm so excited to try out this new pattern and stitch. Thank you for making the material free on your website and having these YT tutorials to help those of us that are semi-newbie or intermediate crocheters :)

[@donnakim6454]

This block stitch pattern is really nice for a blanket. You have very simple and clean designs which I am loving and can’t wait to try!

[@kaylad61523]

I'm new to crochet (only knew how to single crochet before this) and I've learned SO much making this throw ! Your pattern and videos are great and make it so easy to learn.

[@kathywood3413]

Love this stitch, thank you for teaching it to me. I can't read a pattern so I love when I can see it and sometimes even write the pattern in terms I understand. I'm a visual learner so this videa really helped. I also love the color of this yarn and you've inspired me to go buy more yarn 🙂 you have a wonderful color palette on your channel.

[@sammulder1277]

I started a blanket yesterday using this pattern and I’m very very pleased with it. Thank you

Hello I’m new to crocheting how many chains stitch did you start with ? How big will your blanket be? Thanks

I have never seen that pattern in crochet ever before and I love it! Thank you for sharing it with us. I am a new subscriber, as of today! I love your style of teaching and the lovely patterns you create. God bless you and all those you love. Have a great weekend coming!

[@vanessaolinger3901]

It’s known as the block stitch.

[@sceneitfan]

Thank you for this video! I’m very new to crochet. This is the third pattern I am learning. It took me a few tries to figure it out, and then I decided to make it wider so had to take it all out. Then it took me a few more tries to get started again, but now I’ve got it and it’s coming along nicely!

[@tinaneely1]

Our guild is making baby blankets for foster children. And I am going to be using this pattern so thank you very much.

This was such a great and easy tutorial to follow! You walked us through each step and did multiple rows, thank you for not fast forwarding through any step or just skipping to the end result. Easily one of the best tutorials I've ever watched. I look forward to watching more of your videos!

[@hendricksefamily7935]

Hello: I am new at crocheting blankets this would be my first however I cannot read crochet patterns but I can watch the videos and follow step by step. This blanket caught my eyes the colours are beautiful I live in Canada and I travel over to New York to purchase the yarn. Now I have begun crocheting the blanket I notice that you only give a sample of the stitch you are doing. Can you please tell me what stitch you did around the edge of the blanket. Thank you for sharing this beauty.

[@Opiumpoppy8]

Thanks for the Tutorial ❤️

[@maryrose6302]

I haven't been crochet very long and have only done a few blocks and a scarf that isn't finished.😊 My neighbor ladies have started crocheting together. This is the first pattern I came upon and it is different from anything I have seen. It is lovely! I have ordered the yarn and am going to be ambitious and start with a throw size

[@mariereed5042]

That's wonderful that you have a couple of neighbors that you can crochet with! They will be there to help you if you need it or just be there to cheer you on. Congratulations on your new chapter of crocheting! Happy hooking!!! 🧶🧶🙂

[@tlojewelrylove]

Fantastic!👍 I saw a blanket made with this stitch but I didn't know it was called a block stitch. I'd written down instructions on how I "thought" it was done and although not 100% correct (because I've not worked it), I was very close. In my mind I was thinking Ch3 sp instead of Ch2 sp. Everything (st count, etc.) clicked 💡 after you did the 2nd group of dc3's. Thank you so much for sharing this. Now I can get started without hurting my brain with trial and error! 😄 Thanks again and have a blessed day! 🙂

[@KimPhilibert1203]

You can also accent this particular pattern when doing the in-between row. You can use a different color and it will actually frame the clusters that you are making. I like that because then you can actually see the box stitch a little more prominently.

[@edithsomogyi]

Hi, thank you for the lovely block stitch pattern! How would you work this is the round? Many thanks in advance for sharing!

[@annab9847]

❤Ah, I found your Anchored Boxed Block stitch afghan. I liked it a lot, but decided to do a fptc st around the center stitch of the blocks 2 rows below instead of just anchoring it in the top of the center stitch 2 rows below. It gives it a bit of texture while anchoring it, and for me it is faster than working into the top of the stitch.

You are the best teacher! TU

[@cathymartin3379]

This is a nice stitch, but not fond of teh big holes in the first row. Would starting with a row of sc help hide those as they do more after the first row?

[@rosemariegrover561]

This pattern is beautiful!!! I've started it for a wedding gift for my granddaughter. I'm confused as to how to figure how many rows of each color.... I've started with the white and my size starts with 136 chains. Hopefully, you'll see this and advise. Thank you.
