Week 49 Of The 50 Stitches Crochet Along. The Celtic Weave Stitch

You can find the links for all the squares in the crochet along here. The free pattern is below, but if you’d like the ad free printable version, it is available either as part of my Lifetime Pattern Pass, or you can purchase it on its own for £5 from Ravelry

This pattern is written in US terms, but the UK translation is below.

UK Translation

Double crochet (dc) = treble crochet

Treble crochet (tr) = double treble crochet

The Pattern

Click here for the left hand video

For this square you will need a 4 mm hook

Start by making a foundation chain of 32

Row 1. In the 4th chain from your hook (turning chain counts as a stitch) make a dc. Dc in each chain across – 30 stitches

Turn

Row 2. Chain 1 and make the alternate turning chain in the first stitch. *Skip 2 stitches and make a front post treble crochet in the next 2 stitches. Go back to the 2 skipped stitches and make a front post treble crochet (fptr) in the first skipped stitch, working in front of the previous stitches, then make another in the second skipped stitch*

Repeat between *and* then dc in the last stitch.

The skipped stitches

Turn

Row 3. Chain 1 and make the alternate turning chain in the first stitch. Make a back post treble crochet (bptr) around the next two stitches. *skip the next 2 stitches and make a bptr around the next 2 stitches. Go back to the skipped stitches and make bptrs first around the first skipped stitch, then around the 2nd. You need to work behind the first 2 bptr you made so that you start creating the woven effect*

To get to the skipped switches you will need to work in front of the previous stitches. If you’re not sure how to do this I recommend watching the video. You will find this part around 9 minutes in.

Repeat between *and* ending with 2 bptr around the last 2 fptr in the row below, then dc in the last stitch of the row.

The order of the stitches

Turn

Rows 4 – 15. repeat rows 2 and 3

The Border

Use a 3.5mm hook for the border

Across the top and bottom make 1 sc in each stitch.

For the sides make 2 sc in the side of each row

You should have 30 sc down each side, plus an extra stitch in each corner for the turn. This will make your stitch count as 32 stitches across each side and 124 stitches total (remember the extra stitch corner stitch is counted in the stitch count for both sides)

You have now finished your square and join and you can tie off and weave in the ends

The Celtic Weave Square
