Crochet Stitches

Our crochet stitch library: every stitch pattern on the site, from the basics through to textured, reversible and openwork stitches, each with a tutorial you can follow stitch by stitch.

This is the section to use when you have a pattern you like but want it to look different. Almost any blanket, scarf or cushion can be worked in a different stitch, as long as you keep the stitch multiple right and re-check your gauge.

Popular starting points are the shell and fan stitch families, the moss stitch (also called the linen or granite stitch), and the waffle and bobble stitches for heavy texture. New to this? Begin with the beginner guides, then apply what you learn to a blanket.
