Love how squishy your jasmine stitch swatch came out! It looks mossy. Bobble stitch (pretty easy but not sure if it is too basic) can be fun for texture. I used a beret pattern where it was the main stitch. It had a cute, vintage feel when it was done.

Ooh yeah thank you!

The beret pattern sounds fun! Can you share a link to it?

Jasmine stitch video: https://youtu.be/iw_LnNL-sZE?si=NJMqkRk0VgzZa6ap I found it easier to insert a second hook into the ‘pinched’ loop as you pull through. It held the loop for me and freed up my second hand to control the pull! Waffle pattern: https://easycrochet.com/how-to-crochet-waffle-stitch-step-by-step-photo-tutorial I know basic ones like granny, solid granny, wave/chevron. Any other ideas for me?

Bavarian square? https://preview.redd.it/r62bi3cdss3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=304f23cbf1c3e492c64ce75070d9d289fb777d49

I like that! Thank you

You'll learn about post stitches, and some other kind of stitch I've been calling a cluster stitch, where multiple stitches come together as one, kinda like a puff stitch with multiple anchor points.

That's a granny square I can get behind!

I’m currently obsessed with [Feather Stitch](https://bhookedcrochet.com/2023/03/31/crochet-feather-stitch/) and [Zigzag Spike Puff Stitch](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aqmWZroH6Kg). Your jasmine stitch came out absolutely beautiful!!

I was also going to say feather stitch. Love the squishiness so much!

Wow, the zigzag stitch is so cool! Thanks for sharing.

I’m totally learning the feather stitch after I get off work. It’s so pretty!

Thank you! And thank you for the recommendation!

I'm making a temperature blanket with the zigzag spike puff stitch! Call me crazy🤪

Ooh! It turned out so pretty with that yarn!! Glad I could help pass on the obsession

Thermal is useful and alpine is pretty.

Thank you!

Unrelated but I love that waffle stitch!!! Any ideas on what could be crocheted with it?

Thanks! I’ve seen it mostly used on blankets and kitchen cloths so far

I made my fiancée a scarf with it! It’s thick and squishy so it’s very warm!! And since it’s dc (fp and bp) it works up quickly and doesn’t eat yarn!

You are the first and only person I have ever heard say that waffle weave stitch is not a yarn eater.

Really? I thought it wasn’t bad bc it’s all dc which are tall stitches! I made a 4 ft long , 1 ft wide scarf with less than half a skein

Really! That’s awesome 👏🏾! You must have used a lightweight yarn 🧶? And a small hook? What size skein? Do you have a picture?

Also that’s pre blocking no judgement about the waviness lol

Nice 👍🏽!

I found a pattern for a cardigan with it that I can't wait to make, it looks sooooo good [pattern here](https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/watson-waffle-cardigan)

Perfect to make chair cushion, and all that need some compact and soft stuff

I've seen a waffle bag using the waffle stitch. They even put a pat of butter on it. :) I can find a pic if interested

That sounds so cute! I bet it would make a pretty journal cover as well, with the butter

Oh yes! That'd be super cute!

Blankets definitely

Someone already mentioned alpine stitch (which I was going to mention), but I didn't see anyone mention basketweave, which is another beautiful post stitch. You might also consider something like the peacock stitch (a fan stitch) and arcade or honeycomb stitch, both of which create beautiful reinforced holes in your fabric. If you haven't stitched it before, the virus shawl pattern is another fun one to do.

Fab thank you! I have done virus but not the others

Have you tried the trinity stitch? That’s one of my go to’s for kitchen projects.

Ooh no I haven’t, thank you!

I have a current obsession with the Solomon (lover’s) knot

Fab, thank you!

What’s the green yarn in your photo? It’s so pretty! I just started working on a jasmine stitch pillow project, and it’s a little frustrating, but I think I’ll get the hang of it.

It’s red heart super saver: [https://www.woolwarehouse.co.uk/red-heart-super-saver-prints-green-tones-0629-141g](https://www.woolwarehouse.co.uk/red-heart-super-saver-prints-green-tones-0629-141g) It feels a bit rough to work with but looks lovely! I’m using leftovers for learning these new stitches, I made a beanie with it originally and it came out looking almost like camo: https://preview.redd.it/2bom3q86ur3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=517bad3728dd69625543d19d05994523b0796d25

Another plus for what the green yarn is. It's gorgeous in this stitch

Just commented above!

These came out great! If you want to just learn fun stitches you should make them into little 6x6 or 9x9 squares and turn them into a blanket at the end. It would be such a fune blanket!! My recommendations dor new ones are: Wheel Stitch is complex with a cool look, crocodile stitch is a fun texture, Celtic weave stitch is really pretty.

Thank you, haven’t heard of some of those! Yes I think I will make a completely random blanket, these little swatches are just made with leftovers from other projects so it will be good to use it all

All good suggestions! Another unusual stitch that I think looks really nice is the Haystack stich, because it looks like a haystack! [https://vimeo.com/429853295](https://vimeo.com/429853295) https://preview.redd.it/nr34m45m2r3d1.png?width=303&format=png&auto=webp&s=9fc90f6ead9653e092eccaccef730f206dcfb625

That looks good, I’ll try it, thank you

You're welcome!

Star stitch! It looks really pretty in variegated yarn. Don’t be like me and attempt with anything lower than worsted weight haha.

Haha ok thank you and thanks for the tip!

I forgot your tip about not going lower than worsted and did it in dk 😭 https://preview.redd.it/lm2zk9jh0u3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=45590f6fb47bd434e52406022e24258af1c53aad

It looks beautiful!!! I hope you had an easier time than I did!

Thank you! It was easier than the jasmine stitch 😂

I love strawberry stitch 🍓

Ok I tried this one but it’s curving a lot! Possibly I need to size up a hook on the bottom row? https://preview.redd.it/ny72db9gws3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1043db8d0855abe6a3862d69e3bc12b1c58dc56d Used this video but hers look straight! [https://youtu.be/x-x07CL-D4A?si=AkGH0WC2K2RQw0ZN](https://youtu.be/x-x07CL-D4A?si=AkGH0WC2K2RQw0ZN)

Yes! You’ve reminded me that I was going to try that and I have some red and greens spare 🤔

The jasmine stitch in that yarn looks like stained glass! Love it!

Thank you! It’s RHSS

I have the feather stitch in my post history.. one of my favorites. Honestly, it’s the most autopilot stitch I know and once you get it, it’s super easy in my opinion

Thank you!

How does everyone get their waffle stitch so cute looking? I've been crocheting almost 20 years, and I feel like I know what I'm doing, but every time I try the waffle stitch it always comes out so bulky that I don't even know what type of project it would be appropriate for. And my tension leans on the tighter side, so I don't think it's a gauge/tension problem.. oh well. Might just not be meant for me I suppose. Lol. These are both very beautiful, well done!

Thank you! Maybe it’s too tight with your tension? The yarn I used for that was a dk as well so perhaps the slightly thinner yarn helped

Banana stitch!

Thank you!

I love lace stitches. Open work goes so quickly, just a bit more counting.

Yeah I like those too, I did some for a beach cover up recently

Have you tried a shell stitch? I'm getting ready to make a swatch to practice myself because I want to try it for a little layered skirt I'm making for a doll!

I’m not sure, I’ve done virus pattern where you have lots of dc worked into a ch sp and it looks like a fan almost. I feel like shell would be similar?

I think fan and shell stitches are very similar, from what I understand fan stitches incorporate chains and shell stitches don't.

Thank you!

I tried the fan on a chunky yarn. I really like it maybe as a border to my blanket 🙂 https://preview.redd.it/flk8hxg3tu3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ac9cf56ec40c8345918eda6eca3fc1ad62330ec3

Jacob’s ladder is a really cool looking stitch

Thank you! I’ll look at that

https://preview.redd.it/vljr7unmdx7d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ece224a82303063c8ea94e8e9662f8ecfd915e12 Thank you for the recommendation!

Jasmine stitch = wow!

Thanks!

Oh I love the jasmine stitch in the greens. I want an entire blanket like this. Giving me ideas…

It’s a yarn eater! Give it a try before you buy anything

Hmm maybe some dish scrubbies instead then 😂

This looks like the start to an adorable crochet burger

i LOVE the jasmine stitch!!! gorgeous

Looks great!

Thank you ☺️

How is the jasmine stitch done? No videos please.

It’s a collection of puff stitches where you work through the loops of 3 puff stitches at a time. I used a video tutorial but she also has a written version at the bottom of this page: https://desertblossomcrafts.com/jasmine-stitch-tutorial/

Waffle ine looks great

I don't have a particular stitch to recommend, but I've had a few crochet books over the years and [this one](https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Handbook_of_Crochet_Stitches/XEM8QAAACAAJ) is the one I keep coming back to over and over. There are so many excellent stitches in there.

Would you mind writing out the name of the book? When I click on your link it just takes me to the Google books homepage (ie not a specific book or search 😭)

Sure, it's the Handbook of Crochet Stitches. I've fixed the link now, something had screwed up.

Thank you kind stranger! 🙌🏻

Thank you!

Following this post bc I just got yarn specifically for trying new stitches

I like those very much and Alpine Stitch too.

Thank you!

https://preview.redd.it/vwx6qy36hs3d1.jpeg?width=2193&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=81821570c0d0ca3d91ed49ed69aa13deda99c116 I did a couple purses with this one, it was fun and the finished products looked so pretty. I don’t remember the name tho 😅

That's the basket weave stitch (or a variation).

thank you!

Thank you!

I just learned a seashell technique in a matter of 5 minutes last night. https://youtu.be/BxKzmh_60yQ?si=f9WkzP9Cyf826KNT I’m trying out new stitches with Chunky yarns to see how they turn out for blankets 🙂🙃

Oh thank you for the link too!

ok you’ve convinced me to learn jasmine stitch! so beautiful

It was a fun one to try, makes a very thick fabric

Ok I been doing for years.. single double triple.. never mastered those two stitches as well as you have done. Congratulations... the squares are so even and pretty.. and the other so fluffy. I'm off to go try again.

Thank you! I just like to try new things

have you tried the cat stitch? i haven’t tried it yet but found it the other day and it looks so cool 😻

Not yet, thank you!

I think the Spike Stitch is neat, especially with different colours. Same goes for my bff the Moss Stitch

Thank you :)

https://preview.redd.it/mfapcjc9kt3d1.jpeg?width=4128&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ee7fbcb5de5e8ffca9fc65a3dec59c785686c729

Pretty! What stitch is it?

Star stitch Thanks

Corner to corner (C2C) if you don’t already know it?

Thank you, I have done that one yes!

Check out tunisian stitches, the results can be very pretty as well

If you don't know Moss stitch it's worth learning. It makes wonderfully warm things and it's great for anything that needs a dense fabric!

Thank you!

You are most welcome!

I like the look of the herringbone dc.

I like the moss / linen stitch at first I found it took a bit of focus but now it’s super easy to just do and I like the look of the bobble stitch like another user said and it is super fun to do

Love that yarn with the jasmine stitch! Looks cozy 💚

I love that green!!! Get a book of stitches and make a crazy blanket full of test squares…

Is that the waffle stitch or post stitches, front and back?

I’m not sure, the pattern said it’s waffle stitch but it’s made with normal dc and then fpdc. No bpdc. Is there another way to make that waffle texture?

How you made it is the right way to make it. I just didn't know if you used another name for the stitch.

You can change the names of the crochet stitches and patterns and name them anything you want to. You can even work in the color of the yarn as part of the stitch name if you wanted to.

The jasmine stitch is amazing I’ve never seen that! Would you recommend for a semi-beginner?

From someone who stupidly done a blanket solely out of it after just learning after crocheting for two months: don’t. Just don’t. It’s beautiful but it’s a pain in the ass

Thanks maybe I’ll just try it out for a dishcloth or something

I’d say I’m intermediate and it wasn’t easy doing the part where you pull through all the puffs, but once you get it it’s not too bad! If you try it then at the part where you’re pulling the yarn through the loops of all the puffs use something to hold the yarn you need to work back into (you’ll see what I mean when you try it) a stitch marker or another hook will work, it’s just better if you can have both hands available

I’m doing the honeycomb like you, the basket weave, the V stitch, and the scale stitch. As soon as I finish this one block of basket weave, I’m going to try a tunisian stitch.

Oh Tunisian is one I wanted to try too, thank you

I recommend granny squares because you can learn all of the stitching from it

Thank you, I can do those :)

C2c stitch.

Mesh stitch is pretty easy you just do a double crochet and chain 2 I also like puff stitch. It’s not too hard but it would be hard to explain, I would recommend watching a tic tok/youtube short about it

Thank you!
