Crochet Cluster Stitch WRITTEN PATTERN

USA STITCH TERMS

Hook Size(s): according to your yarn

For my sample (in the photos) I used Ice Yarn Magic Light (White, Yellow, Mint Green, Light Lilac, Baby Pink) with a 4mm Hook and a white DK yarn for the single crochet rows

Abbreviations:

• Ch = Chain

• SC = Single crochet

• DC = Double crochet

• Rep = Repeat

• St = Stitch

• Sp = Space

• YO = Yarn over

SPECIAL STITCH:

Cluster Stitch (dc3tog): YO, insert hook in space, YO, draw up a loop, YO, draw through 2 loops. (2 loops left on hook) YO, insert hook back into same space, YO, draw up a loop, YO, draw through 2 loops. (3 loops left on hook) YO, insert hook back into same space, YO, draw up a loop, YO, draw through 2 loops. (4 loops left on hook) YO and draw through all 4 loops.



Foundation Row: Ch multiples of 2 for your desired width.

Row 1: In the second ch from the hook, make 1 SC.

Rep *Ch 1, skip a ch, 1 SC* across

Row 2: Ch 3 and turn.

Cluster Stitch (dc3tog) into ch 1 sp from row below.

Rep *Ch1, Cluster Stitch* until last Ch Sp. Do not Ch1 after the last Cluster. End on 1 DC into last stitch.

Row 3: Ch1 and turn

SC in same st. Rep * Ch 1, skip Cluster, 1 SC in next Ch 1 sp* to end. End with last SC made into the ch3 turning chain.

Rows 4-onward: Rep rows 2 & 3 for as long as you’d like your project to be.

Once you reach the desired length, fasten off and cut the yarn.

If you spot any errors in the written pattern please do let me know.

Happy Crocheting!
