This is a pattern I really like. It has visual interest without being frilly, and it's something a guy can crochet & wear. I've watched just about every basket weave crochet video I could find, including a 1 x 1 version, and for me yours is about the clearest and best I've seen. I can only think of one other creator whose stitches came off the hook so evenly and precisely! Thanks for the beautiful stitches and great video!
Oh my goodness, thank you so much Gregory for these compliments. I try really hard to make sure I am teaching and not just showing and it makes me feel so happy when I can help make something clear to understand. Thank you so much for the kind words and watching my tutorial! 😊❤️🧶
I can't believe how simple this stitch is! I've been avoiding it because I thought it would be super complex. I get so many compliments on the bag I made with basket weave!
As a visual learner, your written directions and the crochet stitch demos are wonderfully clear and I'm going to try this. I appreciate very much how you broke this down into the multiple stitches of 2, 3 and 4. I like basketweave so I'm excited to try this and subscribing. Thanks for a great tutorial.
I had an inkling of how to do this but now I know. I paused the video and did 7 rows 😁👍. Thank for the info on the options for 2,3 and 4 stitches at the beginning 🧶.
Very clear instructions. I appreciate your identification of stitch count for several pattern options. It’s very helpful when getting the look you want for the piece you have in mind.
Thank you so much Tiffany. I have never done FP or BP. But watching you do this pattern had made me want to try them. I'm definitely going to practice because I would love to do the Basket Weave stitch. Great tutorial... thanks again💗💗🤗🤗
Tiffany, you are so great and fun. Your directions are super clear. I feel so accomplished because through you I am able to create the basketweave stitch. Thank you so much
Thank you for this tutorial. Believe it or not, I've been confused about the difference between the Basket Weave stitch and the Waffle Stitch. I now understand the difference. You're the best Tiffany. Now back to my pattern test blanket. I'm about 18 rows from finished them the border.
I bought a nice heavy blanket from a thrift store that is 10 &10. It looks to be maybe a bulky 5 weight. Let me tell you, it is the warmest crocheted blanket I own! ❤️ I couldn’t figure how this was made until this tutorial! Thank you so much!
Hi Chrissy! I love this so much! The big square sections are really impressive and look so complicated. But when you know the secret to this stitch it is really easy. I’m so happy I could help you figure this out. Thanks for watching! 😊❤️🧶
I’ve tried this stitch in the past and it never turned out, found this tutorial and aced it first try, I’m on a plant hanger kick right now and used this pattern to make an orchid basket using 1mm olive green hemp cord, can’t wait to complete it.
ROCK ON!!!! So excited to hear you are knocking out this pattern and loving it. If you get a chance please send me a picture of your project when it is all complete! 🤗🧶❤️
Great Tutorial. I am an intermediate/advanced level in crochet, but I find starting patterns and knowing how many stitches to cast on a challenge. This lined up perfectly. My first project using this stitch, but I have been looking at it for a while wanting to use it.
Thankyou for taking the time to teach the basket weave. I think I have it. I usually do the waffle but I love the basket weave. This is my next blanket . Have a nice day.
Thank you Tiffany for doing such a great tutorial. You are always so clear & easy to follow & you always make me feel like I can do it too. I make little blankets for cats at an adoption/sanctuary where my daughter gives vet care & this will be my next cat blanket.🥰🧶💜
Hi Tiffany, I use the basket weave for hats and baby blankets. I use a double crochet border in two different colours because the basket weave is a busy pattern.
I love the border you chose! You are absolutely right, this pattern has SO much detail that a border with even more detail would just be too much. Breaking up the border into multiple colors is brilliant because it adds character so the border isn’t too boring. Love it! Thanks for sharing. 😊❤️🧶
Hi Sonia! Could you possibly post some pictures of the different colored borders you did (or even send them to me by email msgarza1990@gmail.com) I am currently making a baby blanket (using the basket weave stitch)for my daughter and I would love to see some of your ideas for borders! Thanks!!
I have to say again I was thinking this stitch was so hard to do, but in my opinion you teach very good and it makes it easy for me to follow and learn from you like I can from Crystal at BagODay. Thanks I am definitely going to try this out now!! Much Love ❤️
Thanks for the tourtial great job when looking at the finished item does look complicated but with your tourtial it's easy I have problems doing the back post this will give plenty of practice. 😍 Thanks for sharing this pattern with all of us. ♥️ Have a great weekend. ❤
Can you make more sweaters (clothes)? Also is it possible to have patterns that can be printed, I spent a lot of time in the school car line and at soccer practice for my grandchildren.
Hi Tiffany, this is a great tutorial it helped me understand the formula for this stitch. I started watching because I was looking for a different pattern to make 8” squares. I’m working on squares to make blankets for Project Linus. I used C2C to make some squares but I wanted a little variation in the squares. Using your formula I kept coming up with 7” squares. Putting my thinking cap on and using your break down I figured out how to make them 8”. I basically used your numbers but added 2 stitches. Then at beginning and end of each row I did 2 DC. (Turning ch and DC) it gave me the extra inch. Now I’m hoping to find 1 more 8” pattern same density. Thanks so much any suggestions welcome
A blanket made up of different squares sounds like so much fun. A Sampler Blanket. I am curious to make one for sure. So happy this pattern worked out for you for one of your squares! 🤗❤️🧶
Can you add the written pattern, please? Along with the chain requirements for the different size blankets. I found that very helpful for the Chevron pattern blanket.
This is lovely thank you. Any idea how many stitches for a queen size bed ... I suppose double could work as crochet work stretch a little after a couple washes.
Oh, great question! Not one that is easy to answer. I'd make a swatch using the yarn and crochet hook you would like to make the project with. Then, from that swatch you will be able to figure out how many chains and stitches you will need to begin with, how many rows you will need to make, and even approximately how much yarn you will need to complete the project. To learn how to get all that information from a swatch, check out my Swatch Series here on RUclips. Here's a link to it: ruclips.net/p/PL6HRmAfbRXTUBW5tlXJI69Ga2sUmKFBf_
I'm so glad you liked my video tutorial. I do have a pattern for the Basketweave that I used in the 2023 Temperature Blanket. Here's the link to the video tutorial AND pattern. I hope this helps: ruclips.net/video/eTrlQOyCzrA/видео.html
Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked my tutorial. Great idea for a border around the Basketweave stitch. I’ll add it to my tutorial list though I cannot promise you when I’ll be able to get that tutorial out. With the amount of detail included in this stitch I might use a solid plain border to showcase what’s going on in the inner body. Like a sc/or Hdc/ or Dc border.
Welcome to my channel! I'm so glad you liked my video and found it helpful! Can't wait for you to dive into my other videos and find something else you might want to make! 🤗❤️🧶
I m enjoying your pattern. It is going very well thanks to you. I m now wondering if it is realistic to work with 2 colors and chance Every block? I would take the yarn with me..: or do you think it is not possible? Thanks you very much for your advice
I'm so happy this pattern is going well for you! I bet you could switch colors if you used the stranding method where you crochet over one color while working the other like you mentioned. That would look really neat! 😊🧶❤️
Thanks for refreshing my memory about this pattern! Can this pattern be used for a baby girl blanket with size medium yarn? Thanks in advance for your reply. God bless you.
Hello! I'm a beginner so I'm having a little bit of difficulty with the counting and which hole to insert to..etc, so I like to know the math & count at the end to make sure I didn't accidentally make an increase. For the foundation row, assuming I did 3 8s followed by 5 and then 2 When I am done making double crochets in this row, I should have 24 dcs in total?
Love this! I like to crochet hats bottom up, starting with 2 inches of ribbing and joining to crochet the body of the hat in the round. Would this stitch work in the round? Or does it have to be crocheted flat? Either way, what is the correct way to decrease for the crown?
Hi Mary! Oh you could absolutely use this as the bottom of a beanie! To decrease from the crown I would take the number of stitches and divide that number by 4. (Or rounded 4) then decrease by that number and decrease the number each row thereafter until it is a small enough circle. Then weave through the last few stitches and synch them together. I hope that helps. 😊❤️🧶
Hello Tiffany, praying to find you well. I know this is an old video but praying to find an answer…using your 6+5+2 for the 3 blocks…if I’m starting with a chainless foundation would I skip the +2 or still keep the same count
GREAT question! I think you just drop that last + 2 because that would be your "turning chain". I haven't played with chainless foundations but I do know you have to be careful with such things as watching the stitch count. Great Job! 😊❤️🧶
Fantastic tutorial Tiffany 👌 Thank you so much for the stitch count variations as well. Your tutorial was clear and I love the way you taught this pattern stitch. What yarn and hook did you use here please? The basket weave stitch just 'popped' with it! Sooooo glad I came across this video. All the best to you ❤️
Hi Helen! I'm so glad you liked my Basketweave Crochet Stitch Tutorial. The Yarn I used for this demonstration I believe was I Love This Yarn in the color Lettuce: bit.ly/3rTtRxs The Crochet Hook I generally use is an H/8- 5.00 mm crochet hook. I hope this helps! I'm excited for whatever you are planning on making with this pattern. 😊🧡🧶
In this video you did 3 & started in the 4th chain from the hook. Do you start in the 4th chain as well when working 4 instead of 3? @crochetwithtiffany
Hmm, great question.... It might take some playing and figure out how to work decrease rows to get that triangle shape but I bet it could be done. 😊❤️🧶
Hi Heather. I don't think you could add any more width to the project aside from working up another piece of work and joining the two together. OR if you are making a blanket you could always make a really thick blanket border to help elongate the width dimension. 😊🧡🧶
Great question Jenn! The pattern I was following did not indicate a special last row instruction but making a last row of Hdc stitches would make since and close everything off nicely. Thanks for bringing this up! 😊❤️🧶
That is a great question Andrea. There should be 2 rows of posts one way and then 2 rows of posts switched. This pattern has a 4 row repeat pattern. Once you know that it might help you to count how many rows you have. 😊❤️🧶
I tried doing the 2x2 and maybe it should be multiples of 4 plus 4 plus 2. Instead of 5… cuz I couldn’t get it right with that. Unless I’m doing something wrong, I’m kinda new. 😅
Totally get it. However you can get it to work, go with that! I was following directions from a book but sometimes that can be interpreted different ways. 😊
I had a hard time too, I’m also doing the 2x2, but what I found out is when you’re doing your multiples of 4, make 4 less chains in the base chain than what you want your end length to be. I wanted 12 chains, so I did 8, then when you skip those 3 base chain stitches at the beginning of your first row and go into the 4th stitch, you will have your 1st double crochet out of those three, leaving 4 extra stitches on the base chain because you chained the additional 5+2, and when you skip the first 3 to begin the row, you’re negating the extra 2, and 1 stitch out of the extra 5 (5-1=4) leaving you with 4. So if I want 12, I do 8 chains (4x2) then +5, +2, and -3 when I turn my work to start my first row, so (7-3=4) and I’ll have 12 total stitches to work. Sorry if that was super confusing, it’s hard to explain, feel free to reply and I can try to word my answer differently. Hope this helps! 😊
Great question! I would stick with basic stitches and let the yarn be the star of the show. You could possibly also do a fan or shell. But any post stitch or bobble will often get lost in the texture.
Hi Crystal! That first and last Double crochet is super important to help keep your project edges straight. If you are still finding your edges to be not as straight as you would like you can always block your project when you are done and that will help a lot. 😊❤️🧶
Hmm, I wish I could see what you see. Are you starting with a regular double crochet, then pattern, then ending with a double crochet? If you were able to check out my membership program I could see it in person and be able to give you immediate feedback. If you wanted to check that out here is the link: members.crochetwithTiffany.com
Great question Laurie. The pattern did not mention doing anything different for a last row so just continue working the pattern until you have met the length you desire and then tie off you work. 😊❤️🧶
Your number count didn’t compute in my head but I followed it and it came out right…lol somedays 🧶❤️ I’m making a bay blanket.. thank you for the tutorial
I know, it's weird sometimes. 😄Thank you for trusting the process. I'm so excited for you to make a baby blanket is with pattern. That sounds beautiful!

Thank you for sharing this. The basket weave is one of my favorite stitches! 💙
Thanks for the tutorial. I've always wanted to learn this stitch. I will probably use some stitch markers to find the chain 2 at the end of each row.
Hi Kim! Thank you so much for watching! Stitch markers are a life saver sometimes! Love the idea of using them to find that chain 2. 😊❤️🧶
Thank you so very much. Your guidance has done wonders to my confidence level.
Hi Tiffany, I use the basket weave for hats and baby blankets.
I use a double crochet border in two different colours because the basket weave is a busy pattern.

I'm going to try this. Just a sample first as you did. I do find the BP stitches very fiddly though, when I YO it falls off!
Totally get that. I too have to slow down when doing the BP stitch just to make sure everything is going as it should. You got this. 😊❤️🧶
Great tutorial very easy to follow. Thanks x
Excellent video thank you
Great tutorial, easy to follow but not dumbed down. I am new to crochet but am an okay knitter. You just got another subscriber.
Hi Samaro! Thank you so much! Glad you liked it and Welcome to my channel! 😊❤️🧶
Nice tutorial, thanks for sharing
Thankyou really enjoyed ur tutorial … u made easy to understand. Thanks again Tiffany x

Saving this for later!!
This is lovely thank you. Any idea how many stitches for a queen size bed ... I suppose double could work as crochet work stretch a little after a couple washes.
Oh, great question! Not one that is easy to answer. I'd make a swatch using the yarn and crochet hook you would like to make the project with. Then, from that swatch you will be able to figure out how many chains and stitches you will need to begin with, how many rows you will need to make, and even approximately how much yarn you will need to complete the project. To learn how to get all that information from a swatch, check out my Swatch Series here on RUclips. Here's a link to it: ruclips.net/p/PL6HRmAfbRXTUBW5tlXJI69Ga2sUmKFBf_

@@CrochetWithTiffany Thank you so much Tiffany. Subscribing asap...I love the way you teach
Love the pattern but can you change color
i love the videpe of yarn o but do you have the type of yarn to use?
sorry i love the video but what worst of yarn was it 4 ply?
In this video you did 3 & started in the 4th chain from the hook. Do you start in the 4th chain as well when working 4 instead of 3? @crochetwithtiffany
Great question! Yes, you want that first skipped 3 chains to represent your first Dc stitch to help keep the sides of your work straight. 😊🧶❤️
Thank you for this tutorial. am I right in saying that the stitch count would be multiple of 4 + 7 or multiple of 6 + 7 or multiple of 8 + 7?
Yes! I think that would be a fair assessment based on how many stitches you want in your repeat. 😊❤️🧶
For visual learners, it would've been better if you could show samples of all different multiples that you mentioned
Thank you for the feedback. That is a good tip. 😊
Can the basket weave pattern be done in a triangle for a headband?
Hmm, great question.... It might take some playing and figure out how to work decrease rows to get that triangle shape but I bet it could be done. 😊❤️🧶
Is there a way to make your foundation longer once you have like 6 rows stitched?
Hi Heather. I don't think you could add any more width to the project aside from working up another piece of work and joining the two together. OR if you are making a blanket you could always make a really thick blanket border to help elongate the width dimension. 😊🧡🧶
@@CrochetWithTiffany ok well I’m making a flag and we figured out last night that it might be too short in length but we will see
I've seen other ppl end the row with a half double crochet instead of the double crochet stitch. Would that still work for your pattern?
Great question Jenn! The pattern I was following did not indicate a special last row instruction but making a last row of Hdc stitches would make since and close everything off nicely. Thanks for bringing this up! 😊❤️🧶
I am making a boy's blanket for a little boy and a color three shades of blue
I love that! Sounds so pretty Eleanor! 😊🧡🧶
This may be a crazy question but how do you count the rows?
That is a great question Andrea. There should be 2 rows of posts one way and then 2 rows of posts switched. This pattern has a 4 row repeat pattern. Once you know that it might help you to count how many rows you have. 😊❤️🧶
I tried doing the 2x2 and maybe it should be multiples of 4 plus 4 plus 2. Instead of 5… cuz I couldn’t get it right with that. Unless I’m doing something wrong, I’m kinda new. 😅
Totally get it. However you can get it to work, go with that! I was following directions from a book but sometimes that can be interpreted different ways. 😊
I had a hard time too, I’m also doing the 2x2, but what I found out is when you’re doing your multiples of 4, make 4 less chains in the base chain than what you want your end length to be. I wanted 12 chains, so I did 8, then when you skip those 3 base chain stitches at the beginning of your first row and go into the 4th stitch, you will have your 1st double crochet out of those three, leaving 4 extra stitches on the base chain because you chained the additional 5+2, and when you skip the first 3 to begin the row, you’re negating the extra 2, and 1 stitch out of the extra 5 (5-1=4) leaving you with 4. So if I want 12, I do 8 chains (4x2) then +5, +2, and -3 when I turn my work to start my first row, so (7-3=4) and I’ll have 12 total stitches to work. Sorry if that was super confusing, it’s hard to explain, feel free to reply and I can try to word my answer differently. Hope this helps! 😊
what kind of crochet pattern is best for textured yarn?
Great question! I would stick with basic stitches and let the yarn be the star of the show. You could possibly also do a fan or shell. But any post stitch or bobble will often get lost in the texture.
with the bacsketweave how to keep it strate
Hi Crystal! That first and last Double crochet is super important to help keep your project edges straight. If you are still finding your edges to be not as straight as you would like you can always block your project when you are done and that will help a lot. 😊❤️🧶
I keep getting too many double crocbets in it. I do multiples of 8 plus 5 plus 2.i end with 2 extra.
Hmm, I wish I could see what you see. Are you starting with a regular double crochet, then pattern, then ending with a double crochet? If you were able to check out my membership program I could see it in person and be able to give you immediate feedback. If you wanted to check that out here is the link: members.crochetwithTiffany.com
How do you finish?
Great question Laurie. The pattern did not mention doing anything different for a last row so just continue working the pattern until you have met the length you desire and then tie off you work. 😊❤️🧶
Your number count didn’t compute in my head but I followed it and it came out right…lol somedays 🧶❤️
I’m making a bay blanket.. thank you for the tutorial
I know, it's weird sometimes. 😄Thank you for trusting the process. I'm so excited for you to make a baby blanket is with pattern. That sounds beautiful!
This is such a great tutorial! Very easy to follow and understand. Thank you so much!! ☺️
I’m so glad my video was easy to follow! Thank you so much for watching. 🤗🧶💖
