Crochet Extended Moss Stitch | BEGINNER | The Crochet Crowd 

I made a dishcloth using the extended moss stitch, this is how I finished it: When you're happy with the length of your piece, simply turn your work and do the following two rows. Ch 1, sc in same st and next 2 sts. (You'll be at the first chain space.) [dc into the st below the ch space, sc into top of the dc] repeat to end, sc into top ch. Turn your work. Ch 1, sc into same st and each st across, fasten off. The first row fills in the gaps, and you could technically be done there. But that last row of single crochets mirrors the row of single crochets at the beginning of the piece, which gives it symmetry. It didn't feel "finished" until I added that last row.

OH MY GOSH! This is the 1st video tutorial I've ever been able to follow! I've ALWAYS had to have written instructions. I think my world is on the verge of some big changes!❤❤❤

You always explain and demonstrate so clearly. Thank you.

In the first repeat row you said half double but worked a double 😊 you explain so well I realized easily it was just error and knew which was right I could listen to your tutorials all day 💜👍🙌

Thank-you Mikey, you crochet so much faster than the other crochet adepts on here, so I don't get bored and switch off half way through.Lovely stitch, great presentation :)

I made a scarf using this stitch, and I'm very pleased with the look. To finish, I did an extended dc,then dc in place of the single stitch (or open space) in the second to last row. Then a last row of sc. I then chain stitched around the edge. It has a very unified, completed look. Now starting a two color scarf. 2 rows for each color, alternating. Loving this look.

I ended with a row SC into each ch, and an extended HDC where the DCs were. Then I threw on an extra row of SC so it matched the beginning. (I used two strands of yarn with a size K hook, and made a nice thick mat for my kid's boots.)

I love the colors!! Thank you 🙏 Mikey

Is there a special way to finish off the last row? ... Don't really want all the little spaces there. Thanks Mikey, I am enjoying your tutorials.

I just finished a blanket using this stitch. I used Redheart Supersaver stripes/6mm hook. It looks so beautiful with Variegated yarn. Thanks for this great tutorial.

Excellent Mikey! Thank you so much for sharing!

Fun stitch, thank you, Mikey!

This is a great stitch. Thanks Mikey, I'm using it to put pockets on an apron for a friend.

Excellent Mikey this is awesome two new stitches in one day..

Thank you Mikey very easy to understand

Love this stitch thank you

Pretty cool. Looks like a mini weave.

Your tutorials R the best 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🌺🌺🌺

Mikey! Thanks for the tutorial, but you should show how to do the top row. surely you don't leave the top with the gaping holes?

Thank you that was great. You crochet a little bit faster than other tutorials, thank goodness my opal has a pause button. 😊 I plan to change colour every few rows hopefully that will make it look more like Dans. Fingers crossed.

Love learning new stitches. I do get confused when you don't mention what loop you are inserting into. You did mention the back ridge, but confused on all the other stitches you used. I enjoy all of your videos.

veri veri beautiful!!

Thanks, Mikey, just what I was looking for! What a wonderful teacher you are.

Your tutorials are allways enjoyable and so was this one. Learned a new stitch and a idea/guestion snucked up in my head: Could this pattern be made in a triangular shape to form a shawl?

Thank you very much... I'm doing this as my first crochet project, and am really enjoying myself. I was going to share what I have done thus far, however I guess you can't post pictures in the comments section. sorry. if there's somewhere else I can post it, please feel free to let me know where. ;)

I've tried this repeatedly and I can't get it to stay balanced. I wish I could find a written pattern or even I diagram. Also the 3 dcs on one side and two on the other side don't make sense to me.

THANK YOU SIR!!!!!!!!!!!! I sometimes wish I could adopt you and Daniel, you are just so totally awesome, so feel free to consider me your gramma!

Mikey, when you turn work after the first rox of double crochet, you say that youre going to do half double crochet and you do a double crochet, can you clarify which it is?

What weight yarn and hook size was used to make the scarf? Love this!Yes, you did make a mistake, we all do, but you called it.I love the way you teach!

Hi, thank you for sharing this video, great pattern! I made a loop shawl from it and I want to share the pattern of it free on ravelry, including charts. May I note the link to this video on my pattern? Thanks.

I just love the colour of the wool ... Can you let me know the colour please

I just found you on here and I have to tell you I love the way you teach. You are the first person that holds your crochet hook just like I do.

Beautiful! In the above item did you use one role of yarn of multi colored yarn or different roles of yarn? What brand of yard did you use? Happy New Year! Donna

very nice! fyi the banner for tcc and yarnsp... is in the way :) cant click it closed and cant see through it when you dip behind it. sorry Mikey but love this gonna have to try it! :)

Where do you get your music for the intros? I just love your choice in music.

Hi mikey really liked the moss stitch. but when done with pattern. what do we do with the last row with the spaces left.

I am new at learning crochet so it would be great a little slower and to move the banners as I am missing when you go off to the left under the banners. Otherwise I love the video and the scarf. Thank you.

Hey Mikey...I know this is an old tutorial, but I noticed you said half double crochet and actually did a double crochet with only a chain two at the beginning of the row...time indicator 3:47. IK am very interested in this pattern and would like to verify the actual stitch necessary for this pattern.

can you use this stitch for the planned pooling? The single crochet moss stitch is just such a compact stitch that it makes a really 'thick' stitch.

How do you finish it off to give a neat edge/end row?

I wish you would have a patter written with this

Mikey, I have some sock yarn as well (Tiffany blue) and I wanted to know what size hook Daniel used on his scarf?

If possible would you please Show how to Triangel shawl stricken ,thank you 😍 in advance.

Are the stitches going into the ch1 space, or into the dc stitch when doing the "row below" stitches?

Please add the "cc" closed captioning. I am hearing impaired. Thank you :)

ok great but how do you finish the scarf off so you don't have big open spaces on the last roe

How do I find pattern for green, red and white square Afghan in your introduction. Thank you

I really wish I knew how to end this without leaving those big spaces. I feel like I missed the end of the video. :(

Can you make Afghan with pattern how would you think it will be with blanket yarn

I love this idea but I also really love to do my moss stitch in a square or rectangle. I use a chain 2 for my corners when crocheting a regular moss stitch in a square or rectangle. Would I need to add any extras in the corner for the extended moss stitch?

Hi I am doing the Moss Stitch for a Baby Afghan just wish to know how I do the last row I don't like the holes .

I like this pattern but just can’t get it. My edges are not straight. They are going in at an angle.

I asked for Caron Big Cakes for my birthday a few weeks ago, wanting to make a blanket for myself that has no holes in it. I'm nearly bedridden and need this, but I'm having trouble finding a brainless (no counting) pattern that doesn't kill my hands. I loved the basket weave stitch, and it destroyed my shoulder, back, neck and ribcage. I was so upset! Next C2C, not sure if it's right for me. Started a two toned blanket (one side Caron Big Cake, other side Medium purple.. But its too thick. There just aren't my patterns out there for Caron Big Cakes. Wish me luck!

What yarn did diva Dan use? I am looking for a replacement for my beloved mosaic

I tried this stitch and found it very tedious. I found that the ch between dc pulled the top loops of the dc very very tight and it was very hard to wiggle my hook into those loops :( An idea how to avoid that?

how do i end the last row ? if it is a scarf or wash cloth

@3:46 Mikey that we are to make a hdc, but he himself made a dc. Oops! ;)

I make a rhombus and get one extra stitch on each row . I also have to skip a stitch to get only two stitches above the three stitches at the beginning. This isnt working for me :(

Can this be done in the rounds as an infinity scarf or cowl?

are there written directions? I could not get one off your website

how do you finish after last row?

How do you finish this off as the last row has big holes compared to the rest?

Mikie, how do I end the scarf? Not with the holes. Oops.

Can this be done with hdc?

how do I close off the large holes when I'm finished with the length

After chaining three on the first row and you turned it around. You said to half double crochet but you actually did a double crochet. Are you suppose to do a half double crochet or a double crochet?

How do I get the pattern??

At 3:47, I r doing a ch 2 n I say next stitch is hdc but it appears u r doing a dc. Do I do a hdc or dc on that row?

Think I could begin with a Foundation sc instead? Doesn't look like it will make a difference. Won't need the +1.

how about telling the people who asked a few years ago how to end this off without leaving big spaces?

Ese es el punto que le dicen punto de arroz?

Are there printable instructions?

Hi what size was the needle and the thread? Thank you

You goofed. On row 3 you said HDC, but did a DC.

I appreciate all that you do ,but use larger yarn and go slower. Thank You.

Why do u have an ad that goes for almost an hour before your video? It takes away from your work , anyways, I ended up watching her show and not yours so I thought I let you know what that “ ad”does to peeps like me. It’s not really an ad...it’s a show.

I'm sorry, but you speak too quickly and you work your stitches too fast, even though we have pause capability. This will turn away many beginners to crochet or just to a new stitch! Tutorial videos should be done slowly and carefully, pausing to show the work up close, with speech slow and with good enunciation...and with the written stitch instructions displayed in bold font across the top of the screen, in either rolling marquee fashion or an instruction or two at a time. Otherwise, thanks for doing what must be a tedious job. 👍

Excellent Mikey this is awesome two new stitches in one day..
