I tried this stitch 3 x taught by 3 different people and failed. I had given up then your tutorial popped up. You make it look so easy! Thanks so much!
Had my first time at crochet today its not as easy as it looks but I made a bracelet for the grandkids I hope you ladies don't mind a man giving it a go
Awesome Young Lady , I’m Very impressed by You and the great way you explain .Thanks you teaching this very old 79 year old lady a NEW STITCH , I really enjoyed it 👌🏻🧡😊
I know you’ve gotten many comments like this but I have to say it as well. This tutorial is absolutely PERFECT! I’ve practically been in tears trying to figure this stitch out and after many many videos, this is the only one that’s made sense. Thank you so so much!
Thank you SO MUCH for mentioning that the stitch has three loops. I’m totally new to crochet and my mind was boggled when I started trying herringbone without knowing I needed the three loops.
This tutorial is absolute perfection in explaining this stitch! I have looked at tutorials for this stitch for three days now and could not understand it, but your explanation was THE best! Thank you so very much!! I also subscribed to your channel and am anxious to see other tutorials from your expert hand.
The video starts on the patch already made. I have never worked this stitch... So for someone like me this video isn't helpful. No instruction provided on number of chains and how to work the first few rows. 😢
After watching this video, I feel there is no way that I can make any mistakes trying to learn this stich! Great video, you really know how to explain and take the viewer through every step on the way!
I was trying to follow a scarf pattern from a magazine but it didn't make any sense. Decided to come over to YT, watched a ton of videos, the reverse of the stitch didn't make sense. Echoing the comments below, yours was the best video. So glad I didn't give up, thanks for a very clear tutorial.
Yours is the first I’ve found that mentions going under 3 loops and then 2 on the end of the row. I consider myself a relatively skilled knitter. The most I’ve really ever crocheted though are Amigurimi dolls and animal rugs for my grandkids. When I was a kid, my mom taught me how to crochet but left handed - so I never really got into it as reading patterns was a pain in the butt for me. Although this video is right handed, it is so much easier for me to follow. Thank you!
Going under all three loops on each half-double crochet condenses each row making the chevron pattern really pop. Imo, the wrong side looks better, too. Thank you for a simple and clear explanation!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful version of the herringbone stitch❣️ -for myself and for everyone who is having difficulty with this simply beautiful pattern, how did you start the swatch? God bless you and have a wonderful, merry Christmas and Happy New Year❣️
I've got to say this is THE best, by far, explanation and tutorial for this stitch that I have seen. I have been watching many of them on UA-cam and this explanation along with the video is exceptional! Thank you for taking the time to do such a Great job!! I look forward to seeing more videos!
Thank you for the excellent instructions. I’ve tried several times and failed miserably. My fabric didn’t show the smooth “arrows”. From your video I realized I wasn’t going under all three loops. Once I did my fabric had the desired look and texture. Thanks again 😊
I didn’t see anything about the foundation chain. Any particular multiple? So you start with a row of single crochet & then start the forward herringbone?
Hi there! No particular multiple needed - just start the row off with one single crochet stitch and then proceed with the forward herringbone stitches.
AWESOME. I'm so impressed with how excellent this "tutorial" is. I was briefly confused with the reverse single crochet & ripping it out but it was good to practice that first (I paused & did a whole row : ) I started with a Half Double Crochet foundation row - I don't think you specified that but it seemed to be what was needed. Note: repeated Forward Herringbone rows makes for very tight rows - I'm thinking it would be good for some borders. MANY THANKS!!!
Glad to hear you got the reverse single crochet down - it definitely takes some practice but is very satisfying once you get going! And I didn't specify a foundation row, but HDC works well! Another alternative for a foundation row is chaining any of stitches greater than two, working a single crochet into the second chain from the hook, then working a forward herringbone stitch into the third chain from the hook and all chains following. And if you worked stitches that only produce two loops before your herringbone section, you'll just need to work through the two loops.
I'm making a crochet hook case. I modified it to be trifold and to fit my ergonomic clover hooks. I also did linked stitches to keep it from having gaps. Working wonderfully! Now I'm onto the outside cover of the case. I want to do a herringbone pattern for it. This is a pretty stitch pattern and I don't need double sided fabric. One day I might do a video on my hook case. I think the linked stitches took it from good to perfection. Have seen others modify the pattern but no one has linked the stitches. I love linked stitches. 😁 BTW. I think on Dora Does blog that that loop ur talking about is the golden loop. They have names for people whom pull that loop differently. A rider rides the lower stitches closer, midway. Yanker pulls the loop tight, Can't remember the other. I think. I would have to go read it again. It's on her blog post about gauge. If u find your gauge is correct across but too short, try pulling your golden loop taller.
If the row before your first herringbone row is composed of stitches that produce only two loops (such as a single crochet or double crochet), then you only need to work through the two available loops. For a foundation row, you can chain any of stitches greater than two, work a single crochet into the second chain from the hook, then work a forward herringbone stitch into the third chain from the hook and all chains following. Thanks for your question!
Hi - how do you work the very first row - is it single crochet? I can't for the life of me find the three loops you talk about, so where am I going wrong?
Near the end you did like 3 reverse single crochets without going through the leg, what was that for? The key is going thru the leg of the sc you just worked then the next 3lps to make the herringbone St right? We're those 3 scs just showing a plain reverse sc?
Is herringbone easier if you're able to switch between right-handed and left-handed crocheting? I'm challenging myself this year to do more left-handed work.... just because.
I love how this works up! The back doesn't have that third loop hanging out making lines, so it's just clean. So, I tried alternating hands, and I think it's easier. I know it's not for everyone, but it works.
Just finished a long sweater hoodie and although it looks good, I wasn’t able to stay of gauge with my worsted wool with a smaller hook, so I didn’t get the beautiful definition of the stitches. Very dissappointed!
My mom actually taught me left handed when i was a kid so when i do this stitch I don't flip my work. I just switch the hook to left hand and work to the right. Anybody else?
This is my Least favorite stitch! Ugh. This is such a pain and there’s way better textured stitches. Prettier, easier in the hand and less yarn usage, this stitch is a huge yarn eater. No fun. 👎🏻

thank you for not making this stitch seem so complicated 😭 it’s not hard at all everyone just explains it so terribly, except you.
My word none of the tutorials explained to go through all 3 stitches BIG THANKS
I tried this stitch 3 x taught by 3 different people and failed. I had given up then your tutorial popped up. You make it look so easy! Thanks so much!
Had my first time at crochet today its not as easy as it looks but I made a bracelet for the grandkids I hope you ladies don't mind a man giving it a go
What a great present for your grandkids! And of course - crochet is for everyone!

Thanks 4 sharing ❤

Finally I understood what I should not search for the third leg(stitch) at the end of the row. Thank you✨
I love the Herringbone stitch I alt is so elegant. Nice tutorial
Your explanations are far superior to other’s demonstrations!! Thank you!
You are such a fantastic, clear, and generous teacher! Thsnk you! New subscriber 😊

I agree.
Took me a few tries but I finally got it the hang of it. Thanks for tutorial.😊

How do u start the beginning? A row of ha!f doubles?

What an elegant yet modern stitch. I wonder how the herringbone stitch will look in a button up coat?
What a beautiful stitch!!!!
Thank you for the excellent instructions. I’ve tried several times and failed miserably. My fabric didn’t show the smooth “arrows”. From your video I realized I wasn’t going under all three loops. Once I did my fabric had the desired look and texture. Thanks again 😊
I love the stitch. I'd like to know how to make reductions. Thank you for teaching.😊
I didn’t see anything about the foundation chain. Any particular multiple? So you start with a row of single crochet & then start the forward herringbone?
Hi there! No particular multiple needed - just start the row off with one single crochet stitch and then proceed with the forward herringbone stitches.
Sine a Half Double Crochet yields the requisite "3 loops," that's what I used as foundation row & it seems to have worked.
Genius! thank you for great show of stitch and easy explanation even your voice is welcoming (believe me it helps). Much respect.
Was hoping this was an introduction to the stitch. It felt like it was for people who already know how to do the stitch.
AWESOME. I'm so impressed with how excellent this "tutorial" is. I was briefly confused with the reverse single crochet & ripping it out but it was good to practice that first (I paused & did a whole row : )
I started with a Half Double Crochet foundation row - I don't think you specified that but it seemed to be what was needed.

And if you worked stitches that only produce two loops before your herringbone section, you'll just need to work through the two loops.
Great tutorial thank you! It's such a pretty stitch. I thought it would be way harder but you explained it well x
Mind blown 💕 this was extremely helpful awesome video!!

How many chains do you start off with, and is the first row all sc.
Thank you so much
Hi that is a great stitch. I need to find something to make with it. The yarn you are using shows the stitch well. What yarn are you using?
Wow amazing😍👍👌👌💝
This is beautiful! I wish I knew what kind of yarn you’re using. I always chose some that frays easily 😢
How much chain stitches? Multiple of? How do you start? ????????????????????
Γίνονται αυξήσεις και μειώσεις; Με ποιόν τρόπο;
Multiple of 2
How did you get the 3 loops right from the beginning
Since a Half Double Crochet yields the requisite "3 loops," that's what I used for a foundation row & it seems to have worked.
If the row before your first herringbone row is composed of stitches that produce only two loops (such as a single crochet or double crochet), then you only need to work through the two available loops.
For a foundation row, you can chain any of stitches greater than two, work a single crochet into the second chain from the hook, then work a forward herringbone stitch into the third chain from the hook and all chains following. Thanks for your question!
Hi - how do you work the very first row - is it single crochet? I can't for the life of me find the three loops you talk about, so where am I going wrong?
Great tutorial, I do half treble crochet for the base to enable the 3 loops:)
How do you start? Do you start with half dbl?
Show us how to start from the tippy beginning? Please?
How to change color of yarn during this?
Near the end you did like 3 reverse single crochets without going through the leg, what was that for? The key is going thru the leg of the sc you just worked then the next 3lps to make the herringbone St right? We're those 3 scs just showing a plain reverse sc?
I like the stitch but I am having a difficult time with it I've been crocheting a long time, but I just can't follow how the herribone stitch is done
You didn't show how to start from the beginning after you chain X number of chains???
Is herringbone easier if you're able to switch between right-handed and left-handed crocheting? I'm challenging myself this year to do more left-handed work.... just because.
I love how this works up! The back doesn't have that third loop hanging out making lines, so it's just clean. So, I tried alternating hands, and I think it's easier. I know it's not for everyone, but it works.
Just finished a long sweater hoodie and although it looks good, I wasn’t able to stay of gauge with my worsted wool with a smaller hook, so I didn’t get the beautiful definition of the stitches. Very dissappointed!
Wish you started from the first chain
I guess you have to use stitch markers because I will loose my place.
My mom actually taught me left handed when i was a kid so when i do this stitch I don't flip my work. I just switch the hook to left hand and work to the right. Anybody else?
This is my
