How To Crochet Simple Mesh (Two Ways)

[@dancepiglover]

Thanks for the tutorial. I have a recommendation, though. Have the background (table) and yarn be more different in color to see the stitches better.

[@Scrapnmafia]

This is a brilliant video for someone who really doesn't crochet too much - and I have now purchased and downloaded the Driftwood Poncho pattern from you, to make my daughter something special! I love your work!!

[@nanad5362]

Im doing the 3chain mesh with Bernat Blanket yarn for a scarf and it does not need blocking...laying nice and flat. Thanks for tutorial!

[@JulieHale-n4t]

I have started and love the stitch, thank you for a clear presentation! Me too, your guidance for finishing the edge, so it looks like the beginning edge, would be very helpful.

[@ann3852]

Love your tutorial! It just goes to show that a stitch so simple can be so pretty. I’ve already started a scarf for my sister. Thank you! I’ve subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching more of your tutorials. ❤

[@SaffronJ7R]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.

[@diannep6945]

I am a knitter but I did crochet years ago, I am going to try this your tutorial is great! Thanks 😊

[@morgansmyrages]

This is gorgeous! A question: what should one do to increase or decrease stitches going further?

[@honibear6478]

Thanks for an easy version of this stitch. I found another version a couple of years ago but it wasn't as simple as yours...I like yours more and it's prettier than the other one I found.

[@bettycapps]

Thank you for this very simple stitch and information about blocking. I’m going to use this stitch a lot.

[@carolinaa6163]

Your voice is so relaxing and your hands so pretty. Thank you for sharing this.

[@paulajohnson6943]

Very pretty! I really like how this looks made up into your simple mesh blanket.

[@mamainastitch]

I'm so glad that you like it. Thanks for letting me know!

[@Noahidebc]

I’m planning on making some small curtains and I think this may be a great stitch for such a project. Thank you for the tutorial ❤😊

[@jomama5186]

[@vijayagauri7988]

Thank you for the tutorial of this.really easy beautiful and textured stitch.

[@mamainastitch]

You're welcome! I'm so happy that you enjoyed it!

[@lisjvv]

Great stitch. How would one go about decreasing/increasing?

[@krisknabel8379]

Thanks great instructions I am making a blanket love the stitch I am new at crocheting ❤️

[@jemmiestone3496]

I love this stich. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@sheilareno6329]

I love this pattern. I was wondering if you could let me know how I could make it into a triangle since I make a lot of Prayer Shawls.

[@kellyfuqua8840]

What I’m doing is on alternating rows just adding extra chains to the end to expand the stitch count so it’ll end up in a alternating pattern of this mesh and regular sc

[@gracegrace9192]

Thank you for sharing. Love this stich for dishcloths and for a farmer’s market bag that I am crocheting with cotton yarn.

[@karmachoden7867]

thank you for the best sample, watching from Bhutan

[@joanneogley4874]

I’ll give this a go, thanks for your tutorial 😊

[@meriavo4098]

Do you think it can both be made in round? Thanks for this beautiful video

[@debbied3660]

I love the look and I tried the 3 chains and it would not lay flat as you said. I did try skipping 2 stitches and 4 chains and it worked very well. It did lay flat. It gave a bigger blocks and was faster to make a top.

[@kalyanijoshi588]

Thanks for the idea. I'm trying the same for making a top. Can you suggest how to keep the edges straight mine are getting bit outward and maybe increasing one mesh after few rows.

[@donaldbermudez8372]

Thank you and have a nice day!

[@kimberlylewis2185]

Beautiful Stitch, I can't wait to try it. The tutorial is very clear and easy. Thank you

[@nicolepatterson8169]

Thank you!! This is a wonderful texture - and I appreciate your video!!!

[@mamainastitch]

Nicole Patterson you're welcome! It is such a great texture, isn't it?! Thanks for taking the time to let me know that you enjoyed the video. 🙂

[@LoveEmpress5]

[@vikiknox4447]

Amazing stitch! 😊 Thank you!

[@LisaWoodcomeflywithme]

What a beautiful video thanks a million for sharing!!

[@mamainastitch]

You're welcome! I'm so glad that you liked it!

[@sharonfarrar5316]

Hi. Thanks. Great tutorial. I believe your first version is called the double mesh stitch. 😃

[@vanhoofentizen]

Is there a way to decrease this stitch? Love the way this looks for my project just need to figure out a way to decrease

[@liziking306]

How do you do the end of the pattern to have a straight edge just like when you started the pattern?

[@Thatfantasygirly]

This is really helpful but can you consider offering a slower version and describe what the stitches are that you are doing to make it a bit more intermediate friendly! Looks really good tho

[@jmcgilvary]

Great video, new at this, how do you end the scarf to make it look like the beginning ?, I see someone else has the same question 😀

[@caseyburnett3089]

Hi Jessica, how would you end the pattern for a nice edge? Could I single crochet as the last row? And if so you I go into each stitch?? Thanks! (I am planning on crocheting a scarf )

[@mamainastitch]

Casey Burnett hi! Yes, make a row of single crochet stitches. For the wide mesh that I demonstrate first, place two single crochet stitches into each space across. Hope this helps!

[@caseyburnett3089]

Awesome! Thanks for the help! I am planning on do the two chain mesh - so maybe just one single into each space? I can play around with it to see what works best

[@pamelabarrett9216]

Very pretty, can't wait to try. Thank you

[@vickielmisiewicz88]

That is a very nice ditch however do you have the pattern to do it without the edging or that border that you started with because I put an engine in border on all my blankets after I'm done so how would I do it without that border but it is a very nice pattern

[@ttselha64]

This smaller mesh stitch pattern seems it would be good for a scrubbie using the scrubbie yarn.

[@bellanote5016]

Could the chain three mesh be used for a slouch hat?I love your tutorials. You make crocheting look so easy!🔆🔆🔆

[@ameliaknipp8985]

Very cute thank you

[@angelsgargoyles4025]

Wow, thank you for sharing.

[@delorissargent4992]

Could you use this pattern for a shaggy rug and would you use 2 strands to do it? thanks

[@patriciamontocchio126]

Very nice many thanks

[@nancyincanada5553]

New subscriber here. Thank you for that beautiful stitch pattern! Cute name for your channel, "Mama In A Stitch":)

[@angellivingston4308]

Hi!!! Lovely! I’m working it now! If I’m doing the two stitch, I started exactly like you did at the beginning, how do I do the nice border when I’m done? You basically have an arch so the stitches are in a straight line so I wondered if just doing SC is all that is needed??

[@pomcloset2871]

Need to try this out ❤️

[@karlahartzell2786]

Me again Mz. Mama, I make small blankets for babies in NICU units for hospitals, and am looking for the best ways to make simple & fast blankets for those very needy babes. From your experience, what might you suggest? Thanks so much for your time and consideration.

[@karlahartzell2786]

Good Day Mz. Mama in a stitch, I love your channel... I have a question. Has any one every used the shell stitch commonly used to make baby blankets in an in the round format like a granny square is created? I am not looking for something like the beautiful shells blanket - I'm hoping you may be familiar with this popular pattern. ... Have you ever seen anything like this?

[@mariamelgoza2442]

Loved it thank you.

[@BBknits]

Thank you for the great video! And the beautiful stitch :)

[@mamainastitch]

BBknits thank YOU for all of your sweet comments and encouragement! I'm so happy that you liked this one. 🙂

[@BBknits]

Mama In A Stitch you are so welcome!! Soo happy I found your nice blog and channel. Thank you for all you do :)

[@laureng2565]

What size hook and what kind of yarn are you using here, it's really beautiful!

[@mamainastitch]

Hi! I'm using a US size H and Lion Brand Heartland yarn in Acadia. I think it's so pretty too!

[@ladysassfras]

My mesh is puckering up as expected but i was curious how its supposed to look before blocking? I am fairly new to crocheting and im not completly consistent with my tension as i would like. So sometimes when i work on other patterns they come out to ruffled or to puckered then they should be. Im working on this one but im not sure if i need to start over or if this is acceptable amount of pucker for this pattern before i block it.

[@joellebaker5251]

When you are making a mesh net blanket to fit a double bed do you chain 2, dc into 2nd chain, ch1 skip 1dc into next ch

[@Tal-Tal85]

I'm still new to crocheting, what do you mean by blocking it in?

[@mamainastitch]

Hi Andrea! Blocking is a way to make your crochet piece fit the measurements or shape that you're looking for. It also gives the work a polished look and can improve the look of the stitches. You would simply make the piece damp, lay it out flat and secure it (some people use pins). I just lay a few towels on the ground, make my piece damp, lay it flat and secure the edges. This way it dries with a nice flat shape. There's a lot of information about blocking if you do a quick google search! Have a great day!

[@morgan6094]

how do you end it? would you just single crochet into each V?

[@sandrapatenaude186]

Does this look good in a baby blanket? Thanks

[@donaldbermudez8372]

Very nice

[@cara-rx6ph]

I made it longer... why is it bending inwards towards the first single crochet row? Its as though the single crochet line is too tight or smth😢 did i do something wrong?

[@RhomanysRealm]

How much give is there in it if it's worked up into a sweater? Seems like quite a lot?

[@mamainastitch]

Hi! There is a lot of give with this stitch. It definitely creates a very "stretchy" fabric. Thanks for asking!

[@RhomanysRealm]

Mama In A Stitch Thanks!

[@mamainastitch]

You're welcome! No problem at all!

[@biancarocha4337]

Muito bonito!!! gostei parabéns

[@snowlover614]

really very easy 😄

[@olgammon]

Did you skip a chain then single crochet on the first row?

[@Jayneswoolandbuttons]

Could you do a single crochet instead of a slip stitch

[@AshleyDL80]

what stictch did u use before doing the mesh. saw it towards the end of the video. its hard to explain, looks lile u did a sl st all the way across the bottom.. but also looks like a front post.

[@charlylady1]

The foundation row is a chain with an odd number, then single crochet in every chain stitch to give the work a nice border.

[@peggyawald2749]

Thank you

[@pattyfarghaly1821]

How do you make a 4 or 5 x size and how much yarn would it use. Thank you.

[@Bmon-js2lk]

💕Beautiful

[@nmijj7343]

Can i use this stitch for a men vest ?

[@jackieflesner3118]

Can I make A washcloth with this stitch ???? Thanks in advance

[@knoxxmathen4521]

Is there directions for us newbies thamks

[@maileneking9989]

🤔 if I'm marking a blanket what are the increments 3+1?

[@mamainastitch]

Hi! It will make a gorgeous blanket!I actually just used an odd stitch count to start the foundation row. I'm not sure which mesh you wanted to use, but I suggest the second one in the video so that it lays flat without having to block it. Enjoy!

[@maileneking9989]

Awesome! Thank you

[@mamainastitch]

You're welcome!

[@krazymammaw3040]

Can I ask what size hook you are using

[@nubiacairo8835]

Hi. What size needle did you use.

[@pamelathornton1236]

iF YOU HAVE SIZE 10 cOTTON. CAN YOU USE MULTIPLE THREADS? IF SO ABOUT HOW MANY THREADS?

[@vestahagan6129]

I just found your channel i seen you on Pinterest

[@annaboe8]

hi I am using your stitch to make a large afghan but I have a question. I started my second boll and because of the sc line my whole work is bulging and bends around the sc edge. I know blocking is needed but I am scared that this kind of bend is not going to be fixed by that. (first time I ever need to block) could you help me out?

[@gk.williams]

Next time try making the chain with a larger hook than is used for the rest of the project

[@daisy3667]

Hello how do you end the stiches?

[@krazymammaw3040]

What size hook f or the ch2 mesh stich

[@kathysmith5496]

How do you block the other end?

[@RepeatingCycle]

Can someone please put a timestamp for each method?

[@rachelm.1605]

What does it mean to block it?

[@kaycee6036]

Sometimes, finished crochet projects like curves at the edges. To smoothes it out, you can stem it, etc. There are pins and mats to lay your crochet blanket; it makes it easy to stem. There're other ways to block also.

[@kaycee6036]

Sorry, meant to say, "steam"🙂

[@mclellanfamily34]

Does anyone have any tips on how to count the rows??? I've gotten myself completely lost 😂

[@krazymammaw3040]

Like this want to use it for a shrug

[@jolivia8]

3:19

[@thorunnfridriksdottir2226]

That was 11 stiches in the base/ firstchain, then you suddenly only have crochet 10 in the single crochet row.... That is confusing.

[@alwayslovinlife9497]

You didn't say after the chain where to put your single crochet in as in how many from the hook so this pattern is useless

[@Nord_Kitten]

ok so amazing, but the counting out loud.... that is the worst thing you could have possibly done to someone new because miss I'm slow and I can not be dealing with 1 1 2 3 2 4 3 5 6 4 7. like it doesn't work in my brain, please.
