Introduction

Welcome to my channel! In today's video, I will be sharing with you a beautiful crochet pattern that is perfect for making baby blankets, little sweaters, and baby dresses. This pattern uses a medium number four yarn and a 5mm hook.

Materials Needed

Before we begin, let's gather the materials needed for this crochet project. You will need:

• Medium number four yarn
• 5mm crochet hook

Chain Stitch

To start, we need to make a chain. The stitch multiple for this chain is multiples of four plus one. Create a slip knot and insert your hook through the loop. Chain 25 stitches, or any multiple of four plus one that you need for your specific project.

First Row: Single Crochet Base

Once you have your chain, we will start by creating a single crochet base. Begin in the second chain from the hook and make a single crochet in each chain across. This will create a solid foundation for our stitch pattern. At the end of the first row, you should have 24 single crochets.

Second Row: Fan Stitch Sequence

For the second row, chain three and turn your work. These three chains count as your first double crochet. In the fourth single crochet, make a fan stitch. A fan stitch consists of two double crochets, chain one, and two double crochets. Continue this pattern by skipping three single crochets and making a fan stitch in the fourth single crochet. Repeat this sequence until the end of the row.

Third Row: V Stitch Sequence

In the third row, chain three and turn your work. Again, these three chains count as your first double crochet. The third row introduces a V stitch sequence. Start by making a front post double crochet in the second double crochet. Then, create a V stitch by making a double crochet, chain one, and another double crochet in the chain one space. Repeat this sequence by making a front post double crochet in the third double crochet and a V stitch in the chain one space. Repeat this pattern until the end of the row.

Fourth Row: Fan Stitch Sequence

Just like the second row, the fourth row consists of a fan stitch sequence. Chain three and turn your work. Make a fan stitch in each chain one space across the row. This will create a beautiful pattern. Repeat this sequence until the end of the row.

Alternate Rows: Third and Fourth Row Sequences

For the following rows, you will alternate between the third and fourth row sequences. Continue this pattern until your desired length is reached. The beauty of this stitch pattern is its versatility. You can make it as long or as short as you like, depending on the project you are working on.

Finishing Touches

Once you have completed the desired number of rows, finish with a row of front post double crochets. This will ensure that the edge is straight and ready for any additional borders or embellishments you may want to add.
