Stitches 101: The Jasmine Stitch

Here's a quick tutorial on my new favorite stitch: The Jasmine Stitch! This stitch creates a thick, squishy fabric with a flower design. It uses up a lot of yarn but the final product is worth it!

I saw your Short and instantly knew I wanted make a blanket. I’ve never crochet before, so I paused and played back at least 50 times but I finally got the hang of it. I might have spend my whole day today crocheting 3 rows 😂 Don’t know why I thought It was a good idea to do a 5 ft x 7 ft blanket 😅

[@karendegea7597]

This is so me! 😂

[@yarnTh3ory]

I love your enthusiasm 😂 Your project will be a long term one but the end result will be a beautiful weighted blanket! Definitely share your progress ♥️

[@abe3870]

How is your blanket going? It’s been a while since this comment and I’m curious!

[@lauraasimon8492]

@@abe3870 😂😂 It went really well. At first. It took about 20 balls of yarn for about 5 x 2 ft and I did it in about two weeks. After that I had to wait for the store to get new yarn 😂 then life happened. I got into a new relationship, started a new job with 50h work week and haven’t touched it anymore basically. Tho I did do a few smaller projects that turned out beautifully ☺️

[@therealbaglady]

Congrats on new job!

[@phoebecampbell6292]

I’ve seen a lot of people saying they struggled with tutorials for this stitch. I didn’t have the chance to struggle because I managed to stumble upon this tutorial first. Learned in a couple minutes and I’m now several rows into a pretty large blanket, which is going perfectly. Thank you so much for posting this 💕

[@yarnTh3ory]

[@mayzi4235]

I am so glad to come across your tutorial, your voice is calm and soothing, your instructions are clear and precise, there is no extra talk (not that it would be bad) but the way you show and talk allows me to concentrate on the stitch and the instructions. Really lovely, thank you :)

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you so much!

Best explanation of this stitch I have seen. Had just about given up learning this but inspired to have a go! Thank you x

[@yarnTh3ory]

Glad it was helpful! ❤️❤️❤️

[@johncharleswebstar]

Not as easy as it looks!!! Its about keeping tension in the right place so the chain stitch stays tight and your loops dont get pulled short!!

[@yarnTh3ory]

Tension can be tricky but it comes easier as you work this stitch more and more. ♥️

[@johncharleswebstar]

Pretty cute 100% absolutely i will try this thank you so much 🙏🙏❤️❤️

[@Marilyn0611]

Loved your video, I’ve been wanting to do this stitch for the longest, but I was never able to find the right instructions, until now! Thank you. I also need you to know I love the way you edit your video the music is perfect and not annoying. Most videos I have to mute which makes it harder to listen to instructions. I look forward to more of your videos.

Thank you sooo very much for sharing 😊

Can we use this tutorial to create a carpet? If yes what fabric should I use?

[@cjs2587]

I love this stitch. Do you have a recommended boarder stitch for a blanket made with the jasmine stitch?

[@yarnTh3ory]

I think a shell stitch would make a great border🧡

[@debbiemcclure2874]

You definitely make this look so easy plus your voice is very soothing. Tyfs God bless

[@GeeELX3]

I love this! How much yard will I need for a baby blanket?

[@yarnTh3ory]

It depends on the size blanket you plan to make and your gauge.

[@crissi312]

I love this unique stitch…is it possible to use to make a skirt.

[@yarnTh3ory]

You could definitely use it to make a skirt. It would be very thick depending on the weight of yarn you decide to use.

[@elisabethdow7048]

Amazing tutorial, but I need Help!! My loops keep tightening as I pull up the additional loops. How do I get them to pull through smoothly?

[@godzgirl371]

How much yarn do you need?

[@ellevilluendas3813]

This is so beautiful! Could this be used to make a beanie and matching scarf?

[@yarnTh3ory]

You surely could! If you find the fabric to be too thick, you can reduce the number of yarn overs in each “petal” to create a thinner fabric.

[@rininthescoop309]

Are you creating a ch1 at the end of each row? That's the only thing I'm not understanding 🥰

[@sheilahoekstra859]

What a wonderfull stitch! How much yarn do you need?

[@yarnTh3ory]

I love it! The amount of yarn needed depends on what size project you plan to make. An easy way to do this is make a gauge swatch. Message me on Instagram and I can walk you through it ♥️

[@violettaverbruggen808]

Dear miss, do you have more stitches which makes your work looks the same at the good and the backside? I really like this stitch, but i was wondering if there are more with this effect. Love from the Netherlands Violetta

[@yarnTh3ory]

Hello! There are many stitches that look the same of both sides. I will just list a few: - The Arcade Stitch - V Double Crochet Stitch - The Shell Stitch - The Single Crochet Rib Stitch I don’t currently have any videos for these stitches but there are a ton of great tutorials on KZbin for each one ♥️

[@lilyanne2436]

My bf is gonna LOVE the Christmas blanket I just decided I'm gonna make him 😂

[@yarnTh3ory]

Get started now! Making a blanket with this stitch is going to take a while! 😂

[@user-iu2de4uu8x]

Спасибо❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@nicoledias6967]

Wow! This is a beautiful pattern! But it looks extremely thick. Would you use this type of stick for a baby blanket? Would it hold its shape for a bigger, heavier project?

[@yarnTh3ory]

You could use it for a baby blanket. You can use it for a variety of projects, you would just need to select the material that is appropriate for what you want to make.

[@jessicadetrick3842]

Does the foundation row need to be a specific multiple to work? Like multiples of 2 or 3, or will any number of puffs for foundation work?

[@yarnTh3ory]

Hi! Your foundation chain does not have to be a specific multiple. You can work any number.

[@7eji_m0m0]

I came from Pinterest 🥺🤍🤍❤️❤️❤️

[@cotidiclerico4321]

🤩 hermoso

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you!

[@morganclarke3394]

Could I pull up one less loop to make the puffs more manageable and the overall fabric thinner?

[@yarnTh3ory]

You definitely can adjust the number of loops you pull up to change the thickness of the fabric❤️

[@jedek5]

So is the foundation multiples of 6 puffs? Want to make it bigger and am unsure of how many puffs to do.

[@yarnTh3ory]

No make the chain of foundation puffs the length you need. For instance, If I want my foundation chain to be 50 inches, I would continue adding to the chain until it is that length. You don’t have to worry about multiples.

[@kaylasawyer3609]

If I have a blanket in progress and have a sc row and want to do this stitch can I make the foundation stitch on top of the sc?

[@yarnTh3ory]

You could just start making the petal clusters using the sc row as your foundation.

[@hawaiiansalt7799]

Hello. I have a question regarding the yarn. I get that “I Love This Yarn” is brand name like Red Heart. Right? Then I don’t understand “category 4/worsted weight” i love this yarn ivory tweed”. I get “ivory tweed” is the color. I’m just learning and need help understanding so that I could make another color selection other than what’s in the tutorial. Thank you. 😁

[@elliottjames4185]

I was so scared of the jasmine stitch until this video, you make it look so manageable

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate this comment ❤️

[@beatehonningsvag8468]

Is it possible to build on it?? Like add more to the width/lengt after finishing it?

[@yarnTh3ory]

You definitely can! Just rejoin the yarn at the design starting point and begin working the Jasmine stitch.

[@scara_sun]

How many foundation chains do I need? Mutiple of threes?? Or does it not matter?

[@Ohhvida]

Doesn’t mayter

[@MsCcota]

What’s the difference of chaining one or chaining two at the beginning?

[@yarnTh3ory]

It’s just a personal preference. It will not affect the final product ❤️

[@Twimom00]

Do you do a christmas bauble?

[@yarnTh3ory]

I plan to post a tutorial for a Christmas bauble using this stitch on Dec 1st ❤️

[@esthernation8245]

So should your first row be in multiples of 3’s?

[@yarnTh3ory]

The first row can be any number.

[@user-qs1ou3kc8h]

Очень хороший узор но мне нужен перевод субтитров на русский язык пожалуйста

[@miriamjenkins3560]

Question ❓ i want to make a throw with this stitch. How much yarn do you think i will need.

[@yarnTh3ory]

It depends on a few factors. The weight of yarn you are using and the size of blanket you are making. I suggest making a gauge swatch with your yarn of choice and then use that information to determine how much yarn you will need.

[@harikasrinivasbolla3441]

I don't have a 6mm hook.Can I use a 5.5mm hook?

[@yarnTh3ory]

Use the hook size that works best for the yarn that you are using ❤️

[@evelieningels9408]

Mine constantly ends up getting gaps in it, does anyone know how to fix that?

[@yarnTh3ory]

Once you get more comfortable with this stitch touch should be able to minimize the gaps and have a more balanced tension.

[@miriamjenkins3560]

Beautiful but will use alot of yarn. Lol😊

[@gabib9364]

I love the pattern but mine just does not look like that 😢

[@yarnTh3ory]

It will get easier with more practice ❤️

[@godzgirl371]

How many skeins of yarn do you need? And is there a pattern for this?

[@yarnTh3ory]

Hello! This video just explains the Jasmine stitch and how to work it. It is not a pattern. The amount of yarn needed will depend on what you would like to make and the size. I highly suggest creating a 4inch by 4 inch gauge swatch using the yarn and hook of your choice. This swatch will help you to determine how much yarn you will need for the project you plan to make.

[@godzgirl371]

Is there a specific count on the first row (like multiples of 3) or do you create until it’s the length you want? thank you, this is absolutely beautiful.

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you! No, there is no specific stitch count. Let’s say you want to make a blanket that is 36 inches wide. All you would do is keep making foundation puff stitches until the foundation row equals 36 inches. (You could also calculate your exact stitch count if you make a gauge swatch. This is helpful if you want to make items of different sizes. My gauge is 4 puffs stitches x 4 rows = 4in x 4 in . So if I want a 36 inch wide blanket I would need to start with 36 puff stitches).

[@rhondamizuno8694]

Such a pretty pattern! I think I will try making a kitchen scrubby with scrubby yarn. ❤️

[@johncharleswebstar]

So your puffs are about in inch long?

[@clutariokristinebeas.4252]

Does it use a lot of yarn?

[@yarnTh3ory]

Yes, this stitch is a yarn eater.

[@kaylamorrison8595]

I’m an experienced crocheter and I was not able to figure this out

[@yarnTh3ory]

Tension gets a little tricky with this stitch but with practice, I’m sure you will get it!

To decrease you would make a 4 puff cluster.

[@sidnac6545]

@@yarnTh3ory I just want to clarify that I wasn't trying to be rude or insulting so hopefully it didn't come across that way. My only concern was whether or not some viewers might get confused, but hopefully most will realize from the visual aspect of it, that they're chain stitches 😊

[@yarnTh3ory]

I’ve received lots of differing opinions on the music so it’s been tricky. Will continue to experiment with the levels in future videos so that it isn’t a distraction during the tutorial. Thank you for the feedback.
