- In this tutorial I will show you how to crochet moss stitch. This is also know as linen stitch or Granite stitch.
This stitch is solely done on single crochet and chains. It is reversible as it looks the same in front and back. Due to which it’s ideal for a baby blanket, scarves or many other projects.
This video uses US terminology. US single crochet is the same as UK double crochet.
So follow along and learn this beautiful and easy stitch with this tutorial with clear and simple instructions.
Happy crocheting

I'm a complete beginner, and found your tutorial clear, concise and easy-to-follow. I have just started doing dishcloths because sinks don't judge! I've made loads of mistakes but feel that I can learn this new stitch easily. Thank you for this video.
That’s sounds wonderful! I’m glad you like my video ❤️
Thank you for the tutorial! I'm going to make a throw blanket with this moss stitch.
Absolutely LOVE this
Beautiful dense stitch! Thank you for posting!
Thanks for the description, dense.
I was looking for a baby/ toddler blanket without holes for fingers to get stuck overnight.
I think I found what I was looking for ❣️
Thank you lovely stitch

The moss stitch has been on my list to use for a long time.

@Justin Jesse I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Justin Jesse It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
@Randall Wesson No problem =)

Thankyou 😊
Hi, Im doing a small lap blanket in Malabrigo Rios its a 10 Ply Worsted yarn but knits up in either DK or Worsted depending on needle size. Knit Gauge: 18.0 to 22.0 sts = 4 inches Needle Size: US 6 - 8 or 4 - 5mm and Hook Size: US I-9 to K-10/12 or 5.5-6.5 mm. Ive seen some examples using #3 Yarn and a size 6 hook to get nice drape with the Moss stitch i.e.not too tight, but not loose either.. So with the Malabrigo should I go up to a size 7mm hook?
Hi there! I'm not sure if you will see this comment or not, but I am a beginner attempting to follow a written pattern you have on a different baby blanket. I'm needing some help and was wondering if by chance you've made a video tutorial on it. It's called the 'superbly simple baby blanket' that you wrote the pattern for back in 2016. Any help would be appreciated! 🫶🏻
Just a question, could I get the same look, but add space if I used a half double? Truly just asking. I love this. I was just wondering if a half double would make it faster!
Thank you for the tutorial! Approx how many rows would you do for a baby blanket?
I like to do baby blankets at 36” wide x 42” tall, but you can do any size you want. I just use a ruler and measure the height instead of trying to count rows.
@@middleworldwitch4810 would that be 120 chains to begin?
@@BeYou4You, so, you’re asking about columns (chains, width) rather than rows (height) here. It depends on your gauge. You can make a swatch beforehand to figure this out.
For example, if your hook size, yarn size, and tension has you crocheting 6 stitches per inch wide and you wanted to make the blanket 36” wide, your starting chain would be 216 stitches.
(She also notes that you should work with an even number of chains for *this particular pattern/stitch*, so you’d also have to take that into account.)
For rows: You can math for those too if you want. If your swatch has, say, 5 rows per inch tall and you wanted to make enough rows to equal 42 inches tall, then 5x42=210 rows. But like I said before, I’d just measure for the height I want rather than count rows.
(Sorry for the all the mathing! She notes a range of chain numbers in the video-120 is just the minimum she notes. But if you want to make this blanky to a precise size, you’d want to make the swatch and do the math before you begin.)
All the other tutorials I've watched, always skipped the first 4 chains at the beginning but this one only skipped 1 or 2. What is the difference and which one is correct?
How do you keep the gaps from being too big? Just pull the yarn tight or?
On the odd number rows, is this the row you start in the turning chain stitch
En français merci
Podrías traducir a español, con letras porque estos canales los ven muchas hispanas y nos sería más fácil seguirte, si no te causa mucha molestia
Anyone recommend a boarder for this ?
Hi is there a way to make a border?
This is a very dense stitch. Is there a variation that loosens it up a bit? Maybe a double crochet or half dc? I'm not sure. :-\
Some people use a Double crochet stitch instead of a single but I think if you go up a hook size or 2, it will drape more and not be so dense🤷♀️

Nice how to hide tails.
I watch another video on the moss stitch and it was done differently. They used single and half double stitches alternating. Is your stitch really another way to do the same?
Hi there, thanks for getting in touch. Moss stitch / linen stitch is definitely worked in this way. The stitch you’ve mentioned above is a different one. I am hoping to post a tutorial on that soon. But it isn’t moss stitch. 😊
I’m confused about how you end the rows. It seemed on one row you simply did a single crochet into the end of last row, but the next time you did a chain stitch and single crochet. Can you please clarify. Do you alternate how you finish rows? Thanks
I notice that too. That shows how closely we pay attention.
First row is foundation row
2nd row and every even numbered row there after you end the row with 2 SC.
Odd rows at the end you will SC, chain one, skip the chain space end with SC..
Repeat rows 2 and 3.
Hi, I am a brand new to crochet. Could you tell me how many chains for an afghan? I’m thinking 225. I don’t know how to read a pattern.
Thank you!
It really depends on the size you want to make. Just make sure you use an even number with this specific pattern. Depending on your hook size, 226 would get you between a twin and queen size probably. Take a look at this chart - thecrochetcrowd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Chain-Counts-for-Afghans.pdf
@@SouthpawSteven thanks a million!
You could always lay your chain on a bed about the size you want to make it for then chain that many chains as long as it meets the directions for project.
Hello mine keeps coming out ruffled and not flat what am I doing wrong ?
Mine does not look like that 😭 ive restarted it over and over and over again..
What seems to be a problem. How can I help xx
@@KeepCalmAndCrochet I’m doing exactly what you’re doing and I still don’t see the “holes” i call them that you crochet through. It’s like I can see it on some but not the whole line and I’m losing it as I’m going :(. Sorry I don’t know crochet lingo very well still 😂 only been doing it for 7 months
@@brookejeffers5791 I would suggest for you to use stitch markers/ scrap yarn/ paper clips. Or whatever you have at home. For the first row. From there it becomes clearer.
Hope that helps x
Mettre en français merci
I've tried doing this type of blanket three times and can't take the cutting of yarns at end of changing color rows. Even when tucking in as you go it's just too many loose ends.
I agree but the different colour rows look too good not too. 😊
Happy crocheting 🧶
Weight of yarn and hook number?
Thank you!
About how many yards for a baby blanket?
I’m not sure of the yards. But measurements for baby blankets are given within the video x
You may like to get 3 x100g ball of yarns of each colour and check the length after you have finished one ball of each colour… measure the length and then multiply that length by 3. X
No entiendo nada
Que pena.
You talk to fast and your demistration is way to fast for beginners. 😮
If it’s too fast for you can always reduce the speed of the video down to suit your needs. 😊
Happy Crocheting 🧶
