If you chain 4 on your final row instead of 5 you'll get a flat edge that will match the other side. Like how you did a single crochet every 4 to begin with and create your first row.
I want to say I am happy to see that a guy is giving the lesson. I say this for the reason that I am a guy who crochets and it is hard to find tools, lessons or anything for crochet that is male or unisex related. Most do not know or think that a large number of crocheters are male.
Thank you.
Actually I did not know lot of guy did crochet. I never see any males at the knitting circle (that is not just for Knitters).
well unfortunately most males are hung up on what other males may think of them for doing what is thought of as anything not "manly" so those who do these things are less likely to make it well known.
Just finished crocheting a chalk bag for my brother and a beanie for myself. About to make my girlfriend some decorative hair nets with this diamond mesh stitch!
We should start a mens fiber crafting group!
Great! I’m going to use it to crochet a hammock for stuffies 😊 thank you
Omg thank you so much for this tutorial. This has been the easiest tutorial to follow. Thank you so so much
I got it to work with a foundation chain of 4+2. If you add 3 and then sc in 2nd chain from the hook you'll always end up with that extra chain. (Yes I know that the loop on the hook doesn't count.)
I had to draw out the pattern to see that +3 was never going to work.
Yes! After watching like 5 videos, this one finally helped me out! Thanks 😊
awesome, thanks for sharing! and thanks to those who figured out the chain foundation number. i never seen it written like that before! :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial, you were very straightforward and very helpful.
thank you for posting this! i've been wanting to make a mesh hanger for my bananas... just make a long enough to gather ends and tie each end. and attach to a command hook and put my nanners in it
Thank you for clarifying this stitch for me--the demonstration along with your instructions was a big help.
I'd like to learn how to make it round. Thank you.
Thank you for helping with the mesh pattern.
This is exactly what I was looking for. I prefer to see the continuity of the piece by being shown twice in a row. It is easier to visualize that way. I don't need blow by blow of every stitch though, that would, of course, be too much.
Thank you for the video
how would you adapt this to make a shawl? I can't read pattens so i learn from video due to being dyslexic. I was wondering how you would start, thanks :)
No one in these tutorials spends any time on turning and that's the hardest part for me :( where do the last and first stitch go :(
Rea84 I know right!
This is going to make the perfect net for my ratties, thank you!
Probably just use a whip stitch to seam them on. If you have a question like this that's not related to the video, please us the contact form on our website in the future. Thanks!
How exactly do you dec with this stitch?
How would you decrease stitches while keeping the mesh pattern? Do you sitch 2 diamond together?
(continued from my previous comment) So can you correct me if I'm wrong in what I've been doing which is: Chain 23 (20 is a multiple of 4, then +3=23), sc in the second chain from the hook, chain 5, skip 3 chains and sc in the 4th chain along, chain 5 and repeat to the end of the row which must end with a sc in the last chain.
that is what I've been trying to do, but I cannot end on a sc as there is 1 extra chain? are you sure its not meant to be "chain multiples of 4 +2" instead?
I have the same issue, and I counted twice.
@@melaniebotha4480 Yes and upon reading further comments I definitely think the maths is off here haha
Looked at another instructor- the second row starts in the 7th chain! Then the maths works.
So I don't know if this is how you guys are doing it but the loop that is on the hook does not count as a stitch skip one chain work into the second, chain 5, skip 4 and at the end it'll be a single crochet in the last chain. Make sure you pull your chain because sometimes your stitches can hide behind previous stitches
Mine worked
How do I decrease the sides for tops?
great video. I'm trying to make a basketball net using this stitch. can you give any tips.
I was ttold 4 plus three means chain four then crochet 3 for the turning chain so it would be seven chain what i did was count 4 then 3 has many as needed hope that helps I am starting out but not crocheting i have done since 12 years old this work is harder i agree
that doesnt work for me. I chain 20 (a multiple of 4) and then add 3 (making it 23 chains) then I sc in the second ch from the hook and continued the first row as you directed...but I come to the end of row 1 and theres 1 chain remaining! I know its not me because I did it over and over again from the beginning and even used a different multiples of 4 (+3) but I still end up with 1 extra chain at the end of row 1? I don't understand this?
Same! Did you figure it out?
@@molliestolzerSomeone said that it worked with a foundation of 4 + 2 instead of 4 + 3. Will try and see how it turns out!
Looking for a way to form a bunch of crocheted leaves into a cowl or blanket. Do we think this would be the best base to sew them too?
Hi your video mentions continuity ,ivr subscribed to your channel I need help I've found a pattern for raised diamonds and it says for continuity work on a multiple of 8
4*3means 🤔how calculate the loop no
so many videos showing how to do this stitch but none on how to decrease at beginning and at end of the row
Can you please post this same mesh stitch for working in the round including increases?
Unfortunately we do not create tutorials for stitches in the round.
Plus 1 edge on each side I did the 28 rows but it didn't look like the pattern which I think its something to do with the continunity bit please any help much appreciated
You actually just keep repeating row 3 until you’ve completed your piece? You don’t have to go back to row 2 then 3 , then 2 again? ❤️
Awesome! My kinda pattern! ❤️. Thank you for your quick response! I have an order to crochet now! 🤗
i kinda wish you'd given us how many chains you did because i have no way of knowing if i did mine right.
Que hermosas puntadas
Nice explanation, but you don't say how to end. I'm guessing a row of chain across the top? It would be like the foundation row at the bottom ... but how to attach it?
What if I want to make a triangular scarf?
hi! how can i make the diamonds larger? (they look like circles...)
Thank you!
For those who are having issues the loop on your hook doesnt count as a stitch. And if you pull your foundation chain as you go sometimes the stitches can hide behind the previous stitch you put in.
How would you decrease this mesh stitch?
Would this also be called an arc stitch?
Hi I love this stitch and have made a baby shawl with it but I want to put a mesh ruffle around the edge... can you tell me how to increase the stitches so that it will fall in a ruffle?
Unfortunately that's beyond the scope of support we can provide here. You might want to post your question to a forum like Knitting Paradise. That community is great at figuring stuff like this out.
I made this scarf and it is awesome... but I wanted to add some crocheted flower embellishments... I am at a loss on how to attach them! Any ideas? The pattern I have has flowers on it but does not say how to put them on!
you could get a yarn needle, it's like sewing but with yarn instead of with thread so it's bigger :)
I followed this correctly and still end up with 2 chains at the end of the row
Veloie Mastrocola He doesn't tell how to end each row. I suspect w/a single crochet into the end of the previous row, then chain 5 for the next row's first "loop."
i too faced this issue too. I saw another video that teaches the same mesh with multiples of 4 plus 2 chains(instead of 3 specified in this video). That works fine.
Would this stitch work well for a shawl
yes in fact this stitch is the most commonly used when making a shawl
what do you mean multiples of four plus three i dont understand that
Gayle Greene you do 4x+3 or 4 times a number and the product of that plus 3 then you get the number of stiches you are supposed to do
GOAT🎉
what does it mean to make a multiple of 4+3 😭
i also dont know i was looking for the answer in comments😭😭😭😭
You multiply by the first number, then add the second number at the end.
So if you wanted to knit a scarf, it might be 5 multiples of 4 (20) then add 3 = 23 sts cast on.
Does that make sense?
@@yarnistco yes, thank you!
The way you hold your yarn bugs
Lovely But seems like all the instructors cover the stitches with their left hand and it's hard to see the work..irritating
the video quality made it difficult to see what you were doing & you went way too fast! Also showing a few stitches in the first row would have been helpful before moving on to the next row.
Perfect for breathable masks!
I'd say it's ideal! ;)
