#crochet #crochetstitch #crochetpattern How to crochet an original 5D crochet stitch! Stunning Japanese crochet pattern. • Hururu Stitch. Stunnin... Other interesting patterns: • Crochet stitches
This is basically a 2 row repeat. One of the rows is chains separated by scs; the other row is sets of (2dc-ch1-2dc). It's hard to start but once you get the rhythm it gets easier. This particular one uses 3 colors, which does complicate things; it's easier to do if you use just 2 colors, 2 rows of one color and 2 rows of the other. You get a double sided fabric that shows both colors but one will dominate, and it's gorgeous. It is thick though so try to work loosely, maybe go up a hook size. (I made a 2 color version of this, many years ago, in red and white; it was beautiful.) I hope that helps.
Thanks for explaining this. My aunt used to make baby/reversible afghans like this. Now I can see how she did it. She only used two colors, so one side would be color 1 and the other side color 2. Stunning!
Thank you. I have to comment though that the initial pic was using four colours at the same time, as that is what was shown. A little misleading. Also it would be very helpful if the finished product was shown right from the beginning. I do enjoy your videos.
Ah yes, crochet with the five dimensions; point, line, space, time, and velocity. 😂 Jokes aside, this is a beautiful pattern, and I bet it feels amazing to the touch! Thank you so much for sharing!
I’m Japanese. I don’t know whether this is a Japanese crochet pattern or not,but I think white,green and pink colors are similar to “hishimochi” or “dango”(Japanese food).And it is so amazing that this pattern looks 5-D!! I will buy yarns and do this right now.
It's "Interlock Crochet", just a fancy name to say "it looks different from the front and back, and all rows/rounds (depending on your project) interlock with each other". Interlock Crochet & Knitting can get pretty intricate looking and there are some stunning designs. Note: this is not to be confused with Entrelac knitting/crochet which is something different entirely.
Thank you for showing us how to change colors of yarn easily. Not everyone knows how to use this trick. Everyone had to start at the beginning. Though it is true that this is an old pattern, you are showing us a different way to make the stitches with colors. There is always something a wise person can learn, even from something they thought they'd mastered long ago. A wise man once said that only a fool thinks they know everything. A smart person can always find room in his mind for more and different knowledge. This is a very interesting way of combining chains with the shell stitch to create a more intricate pattern. I like this interlocking variation on the shell stitch a lot. The Japanese stitchers are very innovative and I am grateful for your bringing a few of their techniques for us to use to freshen up our stitch techniques. I enjoy the stitching techniques coming from Eastern Europe, the Slavic countries and even from Russian crochet artists. These are very beautiful! You are a wise person, indeed, searching the world to learn new techniques to pass them along to us. Many thanks to you! Please do not take any derogatory comments to heart. As I foolishly proved to you myself, we Americans can and often do say hurtful things to others. Many times we think that we know everything already and we can't be taught anything new. This is neither accurate or wise, for there are a great many things we in the States do not know. Sadly, common courtesy seems to be one thing we have yet to learn and one which we need to learn most of all. On behalf of these people and myself, I offer my most humble apology, dear teacher. As the greatest Teacher of them all said, "they know not what they do." If these folks think you are teaching something they already know, let them go find some channel which suits them better. We will not notice that they have left. I will stay right here, for I know that, even after crocheting for nearly sixty years, I have still not learned all there is to know about crochet! enjoy seeing and learning the new techniques, inventive applications and upgrades on older stitches when I have the opportunity to do so. You are doing well, teacher. Your videos are clear, precise and well made. You incorporate changes as we request them and your patterns are fresh and new. If there is a similarity to older stitches, we will see that there are subtle differences as we watch you. Your channels are enjoyable and informative. Don't allow "haters" to bother you. They say bad things about everyone. Just ignore them! They will stop their mean words when they see that you don't care. You have any students who appreciate you. Let the others find the reward their words will bring. Much love and gratitude from Tennessee.🌹🧶💖
over 15 minutes for a basic overlapping shell stitch... I'm confused and a bit disappointed. but if 5D implies that this stitch is textured and also transcends time and space it may not be entirely wrong, since it's presented as a Japanese novelty, but was actually quite common in the 50s and 60s here in Italy 😅
Reminds me a lot of the reversible crochet patterns I've seen/done in my 20 years crocheting. 411, I also have a LOT of books from the early 1900s that were passed down to me from my great grandmother. I have some handwritten patterns from my great great grandmother back from the mid to late 1800s.
Did the books have any sewing patterns? I had a beautiful round plump dusty pink satin cushion that had concertina material kind of folded over on each fold over a bit of the next fold, sort of like a fan effect & gathered in the center with a satin round button (that doesn't actually describe it very well & im not sure if you know what i mean or what the pattern would be called) but it was so old & delicate the material started falling apart & very old small loose foam was falling out & couldn't even salvage the satin to try to unpick it to try & see how some very talented lady made it with a lot of love. I really loved the way it looked & miss the old ways & the beautiful crafts that we don't see much of anymore. PS I subscribed to your utube channel :) cheerio from Australia 🇦🇺
\What blessing! It's so sad these skills many thought so necessary are hardly done anymore & are nearly lost art forms I respectfully suggest you have ALll pages copied to let people see & preserve origonalssss
I'm so jealous of how consistently you can crochet! Like, my chain stitches are always one big mess, they tighten up too much so I can never crochet into them again
I have the same issue. The thing that’s helped me is to be conscious with loosening my tension. I’ll pause after every 5 or 10 chains to relax my hands and keep going.
You just need stiffer yarn. Frilly stuff is pretty all balled up but if you are free styling or looking for a uniform pattern then it’s just a matter of proper density + hook size. Plus chain stitches don’t mean anything, they blend in after the second row.
One thing that helped me immensely before I cracked the chain tension mystery was to gauge up one or two hook sizes for my base starting chain, then switch to the recommended size hook. This keeps your foundation chain nice and loose so you can easily crochet into it with the smaller hook!
You can actually get a tool online (or in a local craft store depending on your location) that helps you with your tension. It's a ring that you wear on your pointer finger that you thread the yarn through before you start crocheting. Most of the rings are cute enough to wear just for the fun of it! They aren't that expensive. Just search for "tension ring" or "yarn guide ring," and you should find something that works for you. I used to have super tight stitches as well. In fact, I still struggle with this sometimes (don't crochet when you're angry...lol). The above comments give a lot of good advice to solve this problem, too. 😊
This is beautiful, and you did a fabulous job of showing each step, keeping a slow and steady pace for us so it is easy to follow along. I think that once people actually crochet along with you they will realize that it's quite easy after all! 💚🙏🕊
@1 StrangePuppy Sometimes people watch videos on their phones. Have you ever done that? It can be iffy on some of them. And no need to be an arse if someone gives a criticism that is completely valid.
Just beautiful. Your method was easy to follow. I’ve got almost every stitch written out. Almost there. I love working with smaller hooks & this yarn. Thank you❤
🌸 you can make lots of squares to form nice blanket, connect each square with dark blue colour which will offset all of the lighter colours, it will make it pop 🎉
Oooh thanks for this. I was thinking about how to use it because it’s a very thick and sturdy product at the end and normally I make soft fluffy shawls and scarves. 😅
I read the comments and I believe that many of you are missing the "5d" aspect!! True that there are waves, however as an artist myself. One side looks like it has hearts bug and small!! 5D means that it holds multidimensional look with different patterns using the same materials and colors that can be manipulated to give it a different texture and style depending on the viewer in how they perceive it. Since I also crochet and have inherited it from my mom, i prefer simple patterns but I am willing enough to try new techniques and gain a headache or two. I dare anyone to sit down make a mandala Afghan, my mom sure as hell did and I could see her struggle with it despite her years of experience! And she did two of them none the less, still a feat though. Every pattern has its ups and downs, hard complicated parts and easy ones. Its through doing a pattern, you start to appreciate and see it come to life as you work through it.
That was truly zen. I love crochet, but I always tightened up until it was a mess. Didn’t pursue it. Watching you crochet is very calming and satisfying. Thank you. 💛
@catmom Jewett - crochet is the thing that calms me down (and perhaps a glass of wine🍷) Ten minutes later an hour has gone by and my mood has become calm again. 🥰
It's "just" a 2 row repeat, but it surely is quite intricate. Thank you for the tutorial. Although I don't see myself doing this, I know someone out there will. Please keep posting your beautiful creations!
Keep trying,keep learning! I am self taught and learned from books and other crocheters- pre internet! I was determined ,at 14 in 1974,to teach myself to crochet with fine threads - doilies etc...and I just kept learning from my mistakes and from other crocheters- who came into my life like my mother in law! Just jump in and don't be intimidated!
The hardest part about this pattern is remembering where you are. Really the only way to get it is to do it. Start with some yarn you don't mind throwing away, learn the pattern, and then start over with good yarn.
Are we all just going to avoid commenting on the fact that this crochet stitch apparently has the power to break the laws of physics.....its just too dangerous for us mere mortals
I appreciate the calming transcendental peaceful meditation music while I crochet. Crocheting is relaxing for me & the music choice further helps me to forget about the madness in the world. Fantastic music choice.
I’m making a blanket from squares made from different stitches. Knitting and crochet, I can use this pattern for a few squares. Reminds me of my grans crotcheting a doily . Thank you .
You're on RU-vid! You can learn almost anything. In the RU-vid search function, search for "Crochet for absolute beginners." Get a skein of inexpensive acrylic yarn in a medium weight (look for a "4" on the label) and buy a cheap, aluminum crochet hook in size 4.5mm or 5mm. Then just follow along and don't get frustrated before you've learned to do a simple rectangle of basic stitches with fairly even sides and not-too-tight stitches. It takes some practice, but once you learn the basics - they are easy! - you will love it!
@@stluanne Sounds so easy when you tell like this ☺ When I was at school we (tried) to crochet a square pot holder. Mine end up looking like a kippah 😆
Thankyou. This was so easy to follow, the different colours helped a lot. I love to see new ways to create fabrics and this one would make a very warm blanket or coat.
So, a modified shell stitch. How do you deal with all the ends of the yarns? Do you cut them, or run them up the side? If you run the ends up the side, how do you finish the sides so that these loose strands don't catch on everything? It's a very pretty pattern, but these finishing steps are always on my mind. Having been a crocheter since the age of 8, dealing with strands and edges are very much part of a patterns' finished look.
I cut off the colored ones, not the white ones. When I cut off, I carefully hide the ends of the threads with a needle. I tie the edges with single crochets, then you can tie any border. I do not know English well, I use a translator.
I bring the ones dropped up the border when I have had more than one color skein. And when an end has to be cut I run it across the row to crochet. Once a border is around it all, it helps hide all. Any sewn in ends I find easier to use a large plastic needle. There is a product as well to help keep ends stay hidden. I take the skeins and start making a ball, to assure not knots or weak places before I start. Plus it’s just easier in the long run. If you think you can find a piece of the yarn you put in a border later, that yarn can be used to mend it later on if need be. Learned tips from old crochet magazines.
This is lovely! I'm expanding my color-work skills (such as they are 😏) and I really enjoy the visual & tactile texture here. The music is soothing and helps me focus. Thank you for posting this! I'm downloading it for offline reference!
What a beautiful pattern! I can see how it would work for many items. The first that comes to mind to me is that it would make a beautiful dishcloth pattern. Well done, thanks!
I looked at your shop & I could not find this particular pattern. I think this is very pretty and inventive. I’m sorry there are so many disparaging comments here. 🥺😢
The 3 Dimensions are clear the 4th dimension is in time you can't get the time back that u used to see this vid. And 5th dimension might be in your purse for the money spent if you buy a pattern ...
