Week Eighteen Of The Country Garden Crochet Along

Week 18 Of The Country Garden Crochet Along

It’s week 18 of the Country Garden crochet along. This week we’re going to make the Diamond stitch which will continue with our trellis like panels. 

If you would 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 just £5 from Ravelry

This pattern is written in US terms, but the UK translation are:

  • sc (single crochet) = Double crochet
  • dc (double crochet) = treble crochet
  • tr (treble crochet) = Double treble crochet

If you would like to follow my colour scheme in either Paintbox Cotton Aran or Caron Simply Soft, you can find my colours here
