    This is a free tutorial for the Celtic Weave crochet stitch. This beautiful crochet stitch is for intermediate level crocheters and up.


    A Celtic knot symbolizes loyalty, faith, friendship, and love though a series of interwoven loops with no start or finish.

    These continuous twists and twirls represent eternity.

    Surprisingly, this distinctive design may date further back to the Romans or even the Byzantine Empire.

    Whatever the origins however, the Celts definitely perfected the art, and the design cannot be seen without thinking of Ireland and its rich history.

    While the beautiful Celtic weave itself isn’t a knot, the crochet stitch is reminiscent of the Celtic knot.

    Celtic Weave Crochet Stitch Tutorial

    I did a Facebook LIVE about a month ago and I asked my followers what they would like me to make.

    Well, I am trying to work through my very long list and one of the requested items was the Celtic Weave Stitch.

    So, here I would like to explain to you step-by-step how to do this very pretty, but not for beginner, stitch.

    Firstly, if you have experience with FPDC’s and BPDC’s, then this will be easy to understand.

    However, if you have never done these stitches, please learn them by clicking HERE first.

    Some crocheters use FPTR’s and BPTR’s, either of them work. It might just look more stretchable with the TR’s.

    Secondly, if you have trouble understanding the written and photo tutorial, be sure to check out the video tutorial at the end as well.

    Advanced Crochet Stitches

    Celtic weave crochet stitch belongs to the group of more advanced crochet stitches.

    However, once you master the post stitches it consists of and remember the right order to work them in, you will be off to a good start.

    If you enjoy more advanced crochet stitches, I have an amazing collection of crochet stitches for more advanced crocheters.

    Take a look at ULTIMATE LIST OF ADVANCED CROCHET STITCHES.

    These Advanced Crochet Stitches provide you with a large collection of different levels of difficulties and techniques that you might have never seen before.

    This is the last spot you’ll ever need to go to find an Ultimate list for them all – all with photos and video tutorials!

    You can also get all these advanced crochet stitches in one handy video eBook to refer to whenever you want!

    Take a look at the eBook every advanced crocheter should own HERE.

    Let’s get right into the tutorial for the Celtic Weave Crochet Stitch

    1. Firstly, make a chain that fits this formula: Multiple of 4 (which includes 2 for the turning chain and 2 dc’s for the front and back to have a nice edge). Secondly, starting from the 3rd chain from the hook, 1 dc in each ch, ch 2 and turn.

    How to use the crochet Celtic stitch

    This stitch can be complicated and hard to understand if you have never done the Front post or Back post stitches.

    So be sure to learn them first.

    Once you know how to do these stitches, the Celtic Weave Crochet Stitch is like a walk in the park.

    This stitch is so pretty. I can imagine a pretty pillow case or a blanket made with it easily.
