JASMINE STITCH Crochet Tutorial (with all my best tips!)

[@poojandpunya]

Me before:crying to make the first stitch of the jasmine design. Me now:crocheting a jasmine stitch blanket, and crocheting smoothly. You don't know how much your tutorials have helped me. Thanks so much❤❤❤

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Aww, this makes me so happy. Great job!

[@georgievavessi]

Hey! There is one inconsistency in the video. When you start Jasmine stitch, if tou pull 3 loops through the sc, then there are 20 loops on the hook - not 24. When you pull 3 stitches through 2nd and 3rd loop, they indeed form 6 loops, not 8. So it is 8+6+6. To solve this, we either need to pull 4 times through the 2nd and 3rd loop, or just crochet together this 20 stiches. It also works, but the "vertical leaves" look a little bit less fluffy than the horizontal once

[@amara560]

I was wondering the same thing. Thanks for pointing this out.

[@NatiEierkuchen]

was searching for this comment! thanks

[@loveapplecrafts]

Actually I think if you follow the tutorial exactly, yarning over & pulling up a loop 3 times in each jasmine stitch "eye" a total of 3 times, you end up having 19 loops on the hook. 7 + 6 + 6. This 24-stitch error is repeated throughout various other tutorials as well. I suspect one person said it wrong in their video, and everyone else copied it. Or I'm missing something!

[@angelnicoleorias8199]

i do 4 pulls because that's when i'm able to have 24 loops. she did make a mistake in the video, i believe.

[@rosemaidenvixen]

I correct by pulling through four times, this brings me up to the 24 loops and makes each "Petal" the same size of being eight loops. Plus I like the fuller, fluffier petals.

[@cranberry420]

I make dish- and wash rags with this stitch! It's so fluffy and thick, it absorbs the water perfectly! Let's hope my sides don't look all wonky with this tutorial!

[@loveapplecrafts]

Thank you for this. I've been crocheting for 35 years, encountered this beautiful stitch and tried 3 previous tutorials which were not enough to get me going with it properly. You correct all the various mistakes I was making. I wish I had watched your video first. Thank you!!!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You’re welcome! So glad you’ve got it down now!

[@engyeuja]

You wouldn't believe how grateful I am for the tutorial. I've been crocheting for about 10 years now, but I was never successful with the stitch. But here you are breaking the structure down for us to learn and giving us so many tips. I made myself a gorgeous tea coaster and I couldn't thank you enough😊

[@carolinecherry9588]

By far, this is the best tutorial for this stitch. I've tried various tutorials and still struggled with it. Thankyou 🙏

[@PugHugs902]

This is the best tutorial I've seen yet. THANK YOU.

[@courtneyhumphrey3559]

This was the best tutorial I've found for this stitch!! Thank you so much for making such a detailed tutorial on this complicated stitch.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You’re welcome!

[@dorotheyharo6737]

By far the best tutorial for this stitch! I had trouble with the 24 loops, so I use a Tunisian hook.

[@kimlarsen4883]

This really helped me as well.

[@anjaliellis1]

Thank you for such a wonderful and detailed tutorial. It’s one of the best on KZbin for this particular stitch 💕💕

[@jodithomas5507]

Thank you so much! I have wanted to learn this stitch so much. I've watched tutorials and just couldn't catch on. With your instruction, I finally got it! You have no idea how happy this makes me 🥰

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You’re welcome! I’m so glad it was helpful!

[@AnnaBruno-wh3fz]

Ive been crocheting forever and could never figure this stitch out. Your video has helped me so much I'm now a pro at it. Thank you!!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Great job!!

[@kaelafeil3311]

This is such a helpful tutorial! Thanks for explaining everything so well. Do you have any tips for finishing off a piece with this stitch? Do you have to do anything different for a final row?

[@hollymoore4398]

I've been trying to learn this stitch forever and this tutorial finally unlocked it in my brain. Thank you!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

I’m so happy to hear that Holly! You’re welcome!

[@bentoleisa1]

Beautiful stitch, thank you! I’m doing a blanket and can’t believe how nice it looks.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

My pleasure! Ooh, a blanket sounds awesome!

[@stormxmen]

Thanks so much! I *finally* figured out how to do this stitch after watching countless tutorials!!

[@jeannestout8770]

Absolutely thankful for your tips!!!! Most tutorials don't and it really makes a difference!!

[@missharding9837]

I found a version of this on Instagram and wanted to copy but the other tutorials didn't show the way to do it without extra holes, so thanks for this, I understood it really easily and have begun my winter blanket!

[@Smulenify]

If it's tricky holding the yarn back you can use a stitch marker instead. I hold it until I've pulled through some of the loops, slip the stitch marker around it and then sc/sl into it before removing it (if I'm using a difficult yarn or on my first row, I don't always bother). Definitely helps when using dark or fuzzy yarns! You can also just clip on a few stitch markers to your working yarn and when you need one just slide it up and pull through normally without holding. It only takes a few seconds to do and beats having to redo it. I also think it looks better and there is less of a hole, as you can pull it a bit tighter!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Interesting, I’ll have to try that!

[@leoniem6920]

Another tip: Put a stitch holder on that left loop before pulling through the groups of three puffs. It helps until you get the hang of it!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

I love this idea!

[@ramonitar3628]

Thank you so very much, I'm struggling with this... but am not quitting until I get it 😅😊😊

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You can do it!

[@kimlarsen4883]

Very good tutorial. Yuo talked just enough and made it easy to work along side you.

[@Shouwette]

I saw many tutorials and thank to you I could finally crochet this stitch properly, THANK YOU for the thumb tip (and the other ones)

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

My pleasure!

[@samh.3421]

Genuinely helpful tension tips, thank you so much!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

So glad they’re helpful!

[@richardmichael2374]

Hands down best tutorial on this!!! Got it the first time through. Thank you!!!!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

So glad it was helpful!

[@carlyallen2949]

Best tutorial ever! I tried 3 others before yours and they were so unhelpful! Thank you!!

[@Bethabara9]

The absolute best tutorial on jasmine stitch I've watched. Thankyou!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Yay! You’re very welcome :)

[@justhearmeout3959]

I just want to thank you for putting that you've got tips in the title. It's what got me to click 🥰

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Of course! Thanks for sharing, that helps to know for future videos :)

[@jena6038]

Your tutorial was great! The pattern I bought has lots of pictures but no video. Your video is so helpful! The only difference is for the pattern I’m using it’s only 5 loops for the clusters and 3 for the flowers. This is going to take some practice before I can make the actual project but this w video will help a lot! Thank you 😊

[@annaisassi1686]

Child!! U r awesomeness!!🎉🎉🎉🎉. I got it. Saw all other videos, nada nothing. Bravo. Besitos y bendiciones Anna

[@feliciamcraney7199]

I need to watch this again and use a thicker yarn. I was using baby yarn and an H hook which was way too big! One thing I didn't understand is how you get 24 stitches on the hook when originally you said we should have 7 loops per puff. I'm guessing it's because we yarn over again before we start each puff piece? Is that where the 8th loop comes from? Otherwise I have to do 4 loops through each single stich to get 24 loops altogether. I will keep rewatching to see if I can clear it up. My only other question is do you really "turn" the original row of puffs over or stay on the same side and just go back into the single crochets holes without actually turning the row and working from the "wrong side" or maybe it doesn't even matter? I will keep rewatching to see if I can understand it better. Thanks for your great videos! You are much better at explaining things. I'm just 71 yrs old and slower at understanding than I used to be about these things.

[@kellyg4373]

I don’t normally comment on videos but I’ve been trying to learn this stitch and just could not get figure out how to not get those holes in the center of my flowers 😭😭 thanks to your tips they finally look how I want. Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Aww, I'm so glad to hear that! You're very welcome!

[@louisepreston5726]

Thank you! I'm following a pattern in a bookazine that uses this stitch but the instructions in there are dire to say the least. I'd got holes everywhere, the petals didn't look like petals at all, terrible. But now I'm following your tutorial it's looking so much better! No holes, petals are petal shaped, thank you! 💕

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Oh that makes me so happy! Thanks for sharing!

[@unknownbeing.222]

Thankyou! AWSOME explanation

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

My pleasure! Yay!

[@ikayohana9085]

Hi, thank you for your tips which is using slst rather than sc in finishing pulling through 3 puffs. It really works.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You’re welcome!

[@AP-xe6vi]

Very well explained, thank you 🙏 xx

[@elsalorenzato5589]

Thank you soooo much 💕

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

My pleasure :)

[@veggal4280]

Thank you for this! I've been struggling to get it to work by just reading the written pattern, but your right, the video helped. I can't wait to finish my project now. 😊

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Yay, so glad to hear that!

[@kayceegreer4418]

Since I usually purchase yarn for nano fractions of a penny per yard❤, I don't worry about yarnophilic stiches so much, but I've yet to do this one.❤

[@maryzeigler6808]

You are my favorite, love your tips. You make it so much easier to follow. Thank you

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

So glad it was helpful!

[@kushaj9197]

Beautifully and clearly explained..Thank you so much

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You’re welcome!

[@ravensnow2931]

The tips you shared were so helpful! Very clear and intelligible tutorial, thanks!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

I’m so happy to hear that! You’re welcome!

[@DaniaDraws]

4:02 is the start.I am trying this now.Row(2) 24:55

[@Glittersp]

Great tutorial! You explain everything so well! Thank you!!!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

My pleasure!

[@emilyhamily]

Wonderful tutorial! One question - for each “petal”, shouldn’t you insert into each eye four times (except for the first one)? It looks like when you do it three times you end up with 6 loops instead of 7+ the yarn over, which then doesn’t add up to 24. I’m very bad with this kind of thing so i might be doing some kind of non-math math 😂

[@eotikurac]

i have a small latch hook so this should be easy =)

[@a6ftblond88]

EXCELLENT tutorial! Thank you so much!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

So glad it was helpful! You're welcome!

[@Megeannec]

Hello, I have a problem, I saw your tutorial, and I felt in love with the jasmin stich. I have already started my blancket since a while but the form of it is round, I dont manage to have a nice rectangular.

[@rebeccacounts2714]

I love this stitch. It is so beautiful.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Thanks so much!

[@natashadubal4517]

Very well explained, I followed this and was able to get it, thank you:)

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

That makes me so happy to hear!

[@JazzyJude]

😃👍🏼 Excellent video! I love your tips. To me, the thumb holding the loops is going to be my focus. I really like the closed look. Thank you so much for sharing this. I’ve been wanting to make a couple of mini sofa pillows for decoration and this is the stitch I want. Exciting.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

I’m so glad it was helpful! Yes, the thumb tip makes it easier. Those projects sound wonderful!!

[@booksonmymind-i9h]

Excellent tutorial ! You've made it look so easy.

[@nicolep.lagera5224]

Hi! I'm supposed to have 12 puffs but at the 4th row, it only becomes 8. I think it goes wrong in the ending. Any tips please?

[@laracandelaresi]

Meraviglioso... Bravissima Rachel😍😍😍

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Thank you!

[@laracandelaresi]

❤️

[@mlchong100]

Love this! But why did mine turn into a circle?😂

[@ItsMe-lc4ve]

Thank you for this clear and easy tutorial. You just rescued a destroyed purse that I now know how to remake successfully 😂 Where can I show you when it's finished?

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You’re welcome! Lol! Send it to my email [e-mail]. I’d love to see!

[@fangsupply]

really good tutorial!

[@melyssaferguson7527]

I have been crocheting for nearly 30 years ( I started at 7yo) and I had never heard of such a stitch! I want to try it immediately! A few questions: What is the yield like generally? I know it'll depend on the loop length, but I'd like to know a general yield; I've seen another tut that only yo twice, where you do it three times. Is that just to make the puffs... puffier? Thanks in advance!

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Yeah, it is such a beautiful stitch! I’m not exactly sure what you mean by yield, but yes - the stitches will be puffier depending on how many YO you do. It works either way but it is more “filled out” when you do it 3 times. It may depend on the yarn too.

[@melyssaferguson7527]

@@DesertBlossomCrafts I’m speaking in baking terms, sorry. I meant how many inches of jasmines would a skein of the RedHeart yarn get me? Like, a block that’s 12”x12”? 6”x12”? So on and so forth.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

@@melyssaferguson7527 Lol, no problem. That makes sense. But honestly, I haven’t figured out the math for that. If you make a swatch and weigh your skein of yarn before & after you make it, you could get a better idea. I do know, however, that this stitch takes up a lot more yarn than regular stitches like dc and sc.

[@Lively369]

Like se others that have commented on this video, I have struggled with a stitch, and not been able to do it until this video! Thank you so very much❤

[@desainsbyneetha]

Can you work this stitch lengthwise instead of width wise?

[@patmuddle4956]

Love love love 😍🤩

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Thank you! 🥰

[@janetgallagher7443]

Lovely crochet stitch, but because you used a dark colour, it was hard to follow where to put the hook.

[@tanyaknipe7174]

Cool instructions. The only thing I found hard was that you used dark colour which I found hard to see what you are doing

[@msrhuby]

Nice!

[@adhyakejriwal]

How can I change to a new ball of yarn?

[@lisabottcher2086]

Hello! This is such a helpful tutorial! Do recommend as a starting amount on puffs a multiple of 3+1 or a multiple of 2+1? I want to crochet a headband. 😊

[@leezeshannyn154]

Hi Lisa, cast on 3+1 cuz I made a 10 inch round shaped storage basket, starting with 117 Camel stitches all around the basket walls or waistcoast Stitch or any stitch you like. The main thing is that jasmine Stitch is multiple of 3. Have fun with Your hair accessory project!

[@lindapatterson1525]

An excellent tutorial!!! Such a beautiful stitch, but it really is a huge "yarn eater" which would make it cost prohibitive for me.

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Thank you! Yes, it definitely does eat up yarn unfortunately.

[@Robertahausen]

can you maybe do this same stitch in a lighter colour... really awful colour to chose... so dark to see :( :(

[@TheDoubtingPanda]

great tutorial and beautiful stitch. but my god it will eat up a lot of yarn, no? or is it the same as if you're using a double crochet pattern? hmmm. either way, I'm so using this

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Thanks! Yes, it is definitely a yarn eater.

[@mariadragonul]

If I want to make a Hat with this model,how I make it?

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

You would need to find a hat pattern using the jasmine stitch ❤️ I unfortunately haven’t made one yet.

[@leezeshannyn154]

Hi Marinella, multiple of 3+1stitch for jasmine Stitch. I crochet round shape basket with that Stitch with Camel or waistcoast Stitches as base first, then followed by jasmine Stitch. Same procedure for beanie, headband, any round shaped item. Have fun with Ur hat project!

[@breannadeherrera5421]

When you machine wash this stitch, do your stitches worm (loosen)?

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Oh good question! To be honest, I haven’t had to wash anything made with this before. But now I’d like to try just to see! Let me know if you try it how it goes.

[@wahidhayusuf4305]

😮Adorable... But unable to follow bcoz of the dark color used here..

[@georgelingrant8947]

Can I increase and decrease with this stitch?

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Yes! Here is an article that might be helpful! kickincrochet.com/how-to-increase-and-decrease-jasmine-stitch/

[@jenniferyabut8024]

How to increase and decrease pls

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

I’ll have to see if I can make another video about that!

[@saratabassum2600]

👌👌👌👌 If am crocheting a baby blouse with jasmine stitch for 5 years girl how make corners for arm hole ???please help

[@thesilverpen]

Nice tutorial. Looks a bit of a yarn eater stitch, but it is pretty

[@DesertBlossomCrafts]

Thanks! Yes, it definitely eats yarn so you have to weigh the pros and cons as far as that goes

[@donnaeiler3179]

This is not hard! I already have three quarters of a scarf! I also watched another video of a cross stitch double crochet ; it is not hard either!

[@cynthiamartin901]

Painful to listen to Probably a great stitch but wow she likes her voice

[@rebeccacounts2714]

Why would you say something like that? This video has tons of positive comments and is so helpful.
