Almond Stitch
Start with any multiple of 8 + 5. It is first worked in groups of 4 slip stitches and then 4 half double crochets. You repeat the same sequence for 2 rows, then you switch for the next 2 rows.
- Row 1: slst in 2nd ch from hook and in each of next 3 ch. *hdc in each of next 4 ch, slst in each of next 4 ch*. Repeat from * to * across.
- Row 2: ch 1, turn. Working in the back loops only in every row from now on make 1 slst blo in each of first 4 sts, *make 1 hdc blo in each of next 4 sts, make 1 slst blo in each of next 4 sts*. Repeat from * to * across.
- Row 3: ch 1, turn. Make 1 hdc blo in each of first 4 sts, *make 1 slst blo in each of next 4 sts, make 1 hdc in each of next 4 sts*. Repeat from * to * across.
- Row 4: repeat row 2.
- Rows 5 and beyond: repeat rows 1- 4 until your desired length.
Half Double Crochet Slip Stitch
- Yo, insert hook into indicated st, yo and draw up a loop. Then pull that same loop you just drew up through both loops on your hook to complete the stitch.
- The hat is worked vertically, starting with a foundation chain. You’ll alternate slip stitches (slst), half double crochets (hdc) - almond stitch, and half double crochet slip stitches (hdcss) - for the band, in rows, working back and forth until you reach the required number of rows for your chosen size.
- Mittens are also worked vertically, starting with a foundation chain. Almond stitch on the body and slst blo on the cuffs. After completing this piece, you’ll join the ends and leave a hole for the thumb, finishing with working on the thumb and closing the top of the body.
- The scarf is worked in joined rounds from bottom to top using only almond stitch.
- Ch 1 at the beginning of each row/round does not count as a stitch.
- Instructions to customize the size of all three pieces are included in the pattern.
