Deer Little Fawn: Crochet granny square pattern Granny knows best! Granny squares are fun and once you have the crochet basics they are quite simple to do. They are a great way of using up ends of yarn and can be joined together to form a variety of crafty projects, blankets, throws, scarves, cushions, bags etc. This is not a tutorial, just the pattern, you will need to get to grips with the basic starter crochet stitches first, but once you've got those down it's be granny squares galore! NOTE: This pattern is in US crochet stitch terms (as when I taught myself crochet I accidentally learnt the US names instead of UK terms and so just stuck with them) So if you are used to UK terms there is a helpful conversion chart here. It doesn't really matter how thick your yarn is (as long as you use an appropriate hook size for the yarn you've chosen) the squares will vary in size depending on yarn thickness and how loose or tight you crochet. Basic Granny Square Pattern Ch4, join with sl st to form a ring. Rep from * 2 more times. Enjoy!

Crochet | thestitchsharer I’ve recently learnt to crochet and I LOVE IT! For me, it’s about only having to have one stitch on your hook at anytime and the creative freedom. The biggest hurdle I had to get my head around was the fact that us Brits and our hooky friends in the US use different names for the same stitch. So, incase any of you have also experienced this problem, I thought I would put together a few crochet stitch guides to make this hooky world a little clearer.

Crochet Flower Pattern Yarn Flowers! Once you have mastered the basic crochet stitches, you can have fun with small projects like these. I am not a big follower of patterns, I basically make it up as I go along, the good thing about crochet flowers is that flowers are all different so you can just play around and see what comes out! When making these ones above I attempted to write down a pattern as I went, the pattern is for a six petalled flower (like the one with the pink outer petals above) but as you can see, once you've made one you can play around and change it up a bit, (eg. the purple one is simpler and only has one set of petals, the yellow one has seven petals, the blue one I added an extra ring of yellow in the centre after I'd made it). Crochet flowers can be added to any number of projects, attatch them to hats, scarves, make brooches.. For these I used a double knit/worsted weight yarn and a 4.5 mm crochet hook.

Olavas Verden Crochet Terms in US, UK, Danish and German Unfortunately crochet terms are not universal, so US crochet patterns and UK/Australia patterns use different names for the same stitches. This is very confusing for a beginning crocheter, who wants to read patterns from English sources. Not only are the terms different, but in some cases the same crochet term represents a different stitch in US/UK terminology. The term single crochet only appears in the US version. By that you can tell, which one of the two crochet lingos your patterns is written in. I am a visual crocheter and prefer reading charts to written only patterns. Since I also buy Danish crochet books and sometimes German ones when travelling, I made a chart about the most common crochet terms in those 4 languages. Each crochet symbol is followed by the appropriate term in the conversion chart below. These charts shows abbreviations used in English – US and UK, Danish and German. Like this: Like Loading...
