multi of 8 + 5

[@kimdillardluddy2167]

Ah I was doing 5 + 8 - now I see why the stitch count wasn’t coming out right. Third time’s the charm I hope.

[@BBHubbs]

I do not often leave comments, anywhere, but allow me break that tradition. Crystal, you are an amazingly good teacher! I do so love watching your videos. Thank you for all of your time and sharing ❤️

[@debrashinkle9669]

Sooo agree!

[@therealnancycarol]

I'll make a blanket out of this stitch, right after I make last night's hat that I couldn't make because I was just too tired. That is, if I don't have to take a nap first. - Mumbles. - Not enough hours in a day to do all of this. Not enough days in a week. Thank you, Crystal! It's a beautiful pattern stitch! 💕💕💕

[@reginaprovenzano7440]

We need to follow Crystal's example and wear a few more watches so there will be enough hours in yhe day. ❤

I want to start a scarf in this stitch starting right now thanks crystal .I am 80 years old and I have learned sooo! Much from much from your teaching,wish I had found them sooner, love you girl !

[@salma6946]

Hi did you start the scarf ? Pls can you guide me with the measurements:)

[@carriematynka4942]

A lot of your patterns look sooo sophisticated/complicated, BUT, as always your instructions are simplified and right on! Thank you!

[@EarthAngelReadings]

I don’t know what it is about your videos, your voice or your explanation, but you are the only YT crocheter that I can follow and make my items perfectly 🥰. Thank you!!!

[@Me_Ewe_and_Yarn_Cheryl]

Stitches like the almond stitch are one reason I like being able to crochet and knit. I can choose the best from both crafts and this is certainly one of the best looking crochet stitches in my opinion.

[@alspaughstaci]

Gorgeous

[@Joshua2009baby]

You’re my absolute favourite crochet teacher!! Your tutorials are amazing and so easy to follow. I appreciate you, Crystal! 🙏🏻♥️

[@AmandaBrown-yf9jx]

I have done a few of your beanies and they are my favorite so now I'm doing the almond stitch blanket and it's so fun and easy. I've tried other people's tutorials but you are by far the best teacher I've found. Thanks for all the videos! Amanda

[@AmandaBrown-yf9jx]

Also I'm very new to crochet and have never left a comment before, you are my first so that should say plenty. Thanks again

[@cheryldaub4623]

Love this stitch so simple and you always give the best instructions easy to follow and easy to accomplish the pattern. thank you

[@mariannalban4819]

Beautiful stitch. Looks complicated but it’s not. Thank you, Crystal. 🧶❤️🧶

[@sharonmelody97]

You are truly amazing Crystal! Thank you so much for your awesome tutorials. You truly inspire me. You have taught me so much. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@carolmancuso112]

Lady, I enjoy your teachings. Your voice reminds me of my big sister’s. She is the one that taught me how to crochet. You make it so easy to follow what you are doing and I’m going to make a blanket out of this stitch. Thank you so much for taking the time to do what you do

[@PeggyF]

Very nice stitch. I think I'll make one in pink for a baby blanket. Thank you for the video ❤

[@pjmalick]

This is such a cool looking stitch! Can’t wait to make something using it! Thanks again!❤😊

[@cindyjomoore6813]

Love this stitch , Crystal . Love and Hugs .

[@ellielayton2604]

I've always known this stitch as the Textured Wave stitch. It's one of my favorites ❤

[@reneerodan725]

Thank you, Crystal! This is a great pattern to stash bust my solid yarns 😍

[@janicesmith8367]

Miss Crystal.... You've made soooo many tutorials with some awesome new stitches. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@katrinascrochethookandloops]

LOVE LOVE this pattern i am going to for sure make a blanket with this stitch. I think it would also make a nice cardigan as well.

[@sarahmahoney7786]

starting this blanket now❤😊 my mother picked this stitch for it bc i am making it for her and my father!

[@deborahb2lil2latemashburn]

Looks like I have a new stitch to work with, thanks Crystal.

[@amandafoxton6463]

Great new stitch for me! I am going to make a blanket out of it! Thanks Crystal

[@dismith3888]

Awesome stitch tutorial.. i thought it was going to be diffcult but its easier than it looks 😊🤎👌

[@glendaguthrie7763]

Crystal you instruct your projects so well TY😊

[@teencykizmitt9955]

I can't wait to do this Stich. I already see it in the color I'll use.❤

[@DTPIIXART]

I'll bet this stitch would make a nice wash cloth with some cotton yarn. Definitely saving this vid. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@nancyhildreth8582]

Beautiful stitch. If i ever get my cocoon sweater finished, this is a stitch I'll have yo yry.

[@amydavis4945]

I know I keep saying this, but I really appreciate all of these stitch tutorials that you've been doing for us. Folks that are new to crochet (or just new to designing their own items) can use these stitches to literally make anything, once they work out the stitch count necessary for what they are making! You can make a scarf, blanket, placemats for the dinner table, washcloths, etc. As you get more confident, you can use these (and her other stitch tutorials) to design your own sweaters, ponchos, shawls and hats! When you watch her other tutorials, you will see how these items are "put together" (like top-down beanies always start the same way in the "increase" rows - then you can use other stitches for the main part of the hat). By switching up rows of different stitches and different colors of yarn you can create beautiful items! Thank you Crystal, for widening our creative horizons! ❤

[@Aurora_Dawn]

Love this! I have been looking for a Victorian style stitch ! Can’t believe I spent all night trying to find something like this! I have a Mary Maxim pattern with a stitch like this but, much larger looks like an oversized hourglass, I think they call it a coffee & cream diamond throw. Thank you for your help this is the closest I have seen yet! ❤ I am horrible with reading a pattern s😢

[@carolynn7259]

I am a bona fide "textured junkie"! Got the coolest books for Christmas to keep track of my fave stitches and increments thereof. Have a plethora of swatches learned from you with cardstock attached in a separate box. Easey peasey to cross reference them all now!!! As always, Thank You❣️👍👍

[@armeegetton]

This is one of the stitches i saw, before i knew how to chochet, that made me want to learn. So wavy, i love it!

[@yarnmotivated]

That's a cozy looking fabric!

[@cweissable]

I love this stitch! I'm going to try it when I'm done with my current project. I think I did something similar but I like this better ❤ Your my favorite instructor. I can always see clearly what you are doing. Thanks Crystal 🥰

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

thank you!

[@efinan57]

Nice to have this stitch demonstrated. Love it!

[@Kriskrafts]

I love this stitch, will definitely be making it in the near future, just have to finish a few of the other tutorials you’ve put out. I can’t keep up 😅. Thank you Crystal for sharing your gift of crochet and yarn ❤

[@lorrainemorin]

I love that pattern, but I don't like working into a slip stitch, so I thought what if I used a single crochet instead of a slip stitch and a double crochet instead of a half double. > So I tried it. It turned out beautiful. I worked in the back loops. I love how it turned out. I know it is not a true almond stitch, but It works for me. Thank you Crystal for the inspiration to try it a different way.

[@RosettaMay-u1y]

So beautiful 💕 this pattern thanks for sharing ❤ from South Africa

[@katlux4738]

You are an amazing teacher. Thank you!

[@stephanieclare2457]

Beautiful stitch I love it in brown I'm going to make a blanket and a scarf thank you Crystal.

[@kmn0717]

Nearly every other video tutorial with this stitch starts out with the wave on the foundation chain, which would be difficult to border. I wondered if a single crochet foundation would work, and thanks to your lovely swatch, I’m full steam ahead on my blanket! Thank you!

[@akhtershahid550]

❤ your crocheting style. There's always something new to learn about it. Thank you so very much. MAY Allah bless you and your family members always. AMEEN. 🤲💖

[@michaelmccarthy3191]

Thanks Crystal - your explanation and demonstration of this stitch was great - I’m getting ready to take it on. I really enjoy all of your videos…even if I don’t try a stitch or a pattern - thanks for bringing much needed joy. Here we go…..Almond time!

[@angelahampton9294]

Thank you so much, I've tried this on a hat, and they kept coming out stacked instead of staggered. You explained it perfectly. Thanks again. Love your videos❤

[@karenWiv]

Oh my. Love this. Going to try this one ❤ thank you 🙏

[@lindaplunk8311]

Ms.C, you are awesome .loved your tutorial on the almond stitch pattern. I want to ask if you think is stitch would work using a vargated yarn. I WANT TO MAKE A BLANKET FOR MY SON ? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWER. LOVE LEARNING FROM YOUR VIDEOS. THANKS ❤

[@justjo592]

Just an observation….. at 2:04 you say the pattern is a multiple of 5 plus 8, but it should be a multiple of 8 plus 5. Looks like a really nice pattern. 😀

[@judyeng9822]

Really nice! I’m going to have to give this a try. It’s got the Bumpies! lol! God Bless. Take care. Love you. 😇🙏♥️

[@rachelbodzioch9695]

You explain things so simply. I love to listen to you

[@barbaragoodwin2796]

What a pretty and different pattern - but a yarn eater. Will use often I am sure 😊

[@cynthiacornell1718]

I love the surprise of this stitch. Today this stitch will make a new hat!

[@tonineeley1828]

I just made my swatch... I love this stitch! I'll probably make a blanket using this stitch. Thank you for showing me this new stitch!

[@Cari_Crafts]

That is a really distinctive stitch. I love you can use plain old yarn & it would look so special! Great job!!

[@zscreations5820]

I love the way this stitch looks! Don’t know what I’ll make but I have to make something it’s too pretty not to. Thank you Crystal. Take care 💜

[@maryannbcrochets8775]

This is a beautiful stitch combo. Love it. ❤

[@gracejohnston2692]

I like this stitch. Wavey!ombres a nice touch!

[@oodlesacaboodles]

Wow... That looks like a really cool stitch, and I imagine that it would be warm since there is no gaps between the stitches. And just an FYI, I've gone outside my comfort zone and have been working on a cable scarf. My very first Cable item, and first time using this stitch, and I COMPLETELY understand why it is one of your favorite stitches. I am honestly blown away at how easy it is, and how pretty it REALLY looks, up close and personal. Thank you for teaching me this stitch!! 🤎🧡

[@colleenrivera3128]

Thank you for this almond stitch love it😊

[@KayHudspeth]

Will use this for prayer shawls, baby blankets and lap blankets. Thanks for all your tutorials.

[@juliacooper9145]

Love it. I now know what stitch to use for the yarn i got for christmas. You have a demeanor of encouragement in all of your tutorials. You give us the tools to make something beautiful. 🎉Heres to a great 2024

[@lynnegordon6749]

This is really pretty Crystal

[@lynnemchugh3389]

I'm using this stitch to make a big blanket. I'm loving the look and how easy it is to do . Thank you Crystal

[@gregoryvozar6236]

Always admired this stitch but I’ve never tried it. I have a gift scarf on the horizon & I think this might work very well if done with the pattern running the length. Thanks Crystal, always love your stitch tutorials!

[@jamiek7053]

Wow! Looks more complicated than it is. Thank you!

[@dianefriske3691]

Beautiful stitch! Can’t wait to start a scarf!

[@fionastube2011]

Ok, that’s it. I have to try this stitch. You were right - it looks complicated, but its structure is fairly simple. Do you ever feel like a magician revealing secrets? Just kidding. 😊 Thanks for another wonderful tutorial.

[@glendabrady9996]

I love this pattern. Thankyou so much. I love learning from you. You do such beautiful work

[@DianEnglish56]

This is a beautiful stitch and pattern! TY!

[@karentaylor83]

I love this stitch I will definitely have to try it.

[@kateconrad7463]

This is such an interesting and pretty stitch. It looks as though it would be complicated, but I was surprised that such a simple pattern would work up so beautifully. You do such a wonderful job with explaining the patterns. Thank you for your generosity in sharing these patterns with us.❤

[@cindycampbell4994]

Love this stitch! Such a nice pattern!

[@judivowell5748]

I saw a very similar stitch a couple of days ago and fell in love with it. But I like yours better for a sweater for my dog. It's a little tighter and she's not very big. So I'll give this a try. I'm not a great one to follow patterns so this should be perfect.

[@preciousbeautyj1043]

I’m rewatching your videos bcuz I want you to have watched time. ❤❤❤

[@cathyg6164]

Very pretty I’ll add it to my list

[@ThriftCityStyling]

OH MY GOSH💞💞 this is absolutely beautiful! Can’t wait to try this out. I love the basket stitch because of the texture & it looks like it takes a lot of work but it’s quite easy this looks like it will bring the same effect w/ a simpler stitch 👏🏽

[@carolgurges2716]

Beautiful stitch! Can’t wait to make a blanket!
