Video Crochet Pattern: The Seed Stitch
I have a new video on Youtube called the seed stitch. I have made many items using it. It's one of my favorites especially when changing colors. You can really see the design better.
I'm using the Fibonacci
Sequence to create stripes in this scarf. The section of the
sequence I am using is 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 then I go in reverse...5, 3, 2,
1, 1. The entire sequence is below. I am using the lighter yarn for those rows. I'm doing 8 rows
in between each of those “sequences” in Dark Brown.
If your not familiar with
the Fibonacci Sequence this is how it goes. The first two Fibonacci
numbers are 0 and 1, the next number is the sum of the previous two. So 0+1=1 which is why there is a 2nd "1". Then 1+1=2 etc... and so on. The sequence is 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21, 34,55,89,144 etc....

Gauge: 2.75 stitches per inch

Row 2: chain 1, turn… skip 1st
stitch (which is the base of the ch1), *1SC and 1DC in next stitch, skip 1 stitch* repeat across the

Hi Heather, I'm a beginner and I'm confused. In row two the last instruction before the * is "skip 1 stitch." I watched the video and you ended the row with 1 SC and 1 DC in the last stitch of the row. Should the row end with a "skipped" stitch or a 1 SC and 1 DC in the last stitch?
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteYou keep repeating the instructions in between the * and end with a SC and Dc in the last stitch.
If you need anything else let me know.

Hey I'm having the hardest time after topaz 62-65 its time to switch to the leaf but there's no 66?? I'm having the hardest time trying to keep the colors proportioned
ReplyDeleteHi, it looks like there was a missing section of rows which are 66-73. The colors go in the same order Topaz, green and tan and this falls in the green (leaf) shade. The lin back to that specific scarf is http://crochetpatterns09.blogspot.com/2010/12/impeccible-seed-stitch-scarf.html
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know!!
Sorry for the confusion.

Thank you! Am looking for a simple but pretty Stitch to use to make scarves for ladies in the hospital. This is quite nice and not too delicate or hard to do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your tutorial. It was easy to follow and great for us visual learners.
