We’re now on Day 8 of this year’s Advent Calendar Mystery Crochet Along! This fun event follows a repeating 3-day cycle: Day 1 is a giveaway, Day 2 is a stitch tutorial, and Day 3 is a free crochet pattern using the previous day’s stitch. The cycle continues all the way through December 24th, bringing a new surprise each day for crochet lovers!

The Crochet Feather Stitch is one of my favorites because it creates a lovely, flowing texture that looks amazing in blankets or scarves. You can follow my free written pattern and video tutorial to see every step clearly.

I love using this stitch, and it is used in my three patterns: boot cuffs, a phone bag, and a basket. I think you will enjoy how versatile and fun this stitch is to work.

You’ll get easy-to-follow written directions along with a full video tutorial, so beginners and first-timers can learn this stitch without stress. I show each step clearly to help you feel confident as you work.

Once you’re ready to try it out, head to my blog tomorrow for a free mystery crochet pattern as part of the Advent Calendar Mystery CAL. You will get a chance to work one of my three Feather Stitch patterns, like the bootcuffs, phone bag, or basket.

Instructions for the Crochet Feather Stitch

Before you start crocheting the Basket, Boot Cuffs, or Phone Holder Bag, let’s first go through the stitch tutorial and learn how to crochet this stitch. 

INSTRUCTIONS:

To make a swatch to practice this stitch, start with an odd chain count.

R1: start from the 3rd ch from the hook, *1 hdc, ch 1, sk 1, repeat from * until the end, finish with 1 hdc, turn

Feather Stitch: yo, insert hook into ch-1 space below, pull up a loop, yo, insert hook into skipped ch 1 (starting from the 3rd row it will be the ch-1 space 2 rows below), pull up a loop, yo, insert hook into the next ch-1 space, pull up a loop (7 loops on hook), yo, pull through all loops, ch 1

Note: you are using each ch-1 space twice (unless it’s on the edge), 1 time for one stitch, 2nd time for the next st.

R2: ch 1, 1 hdc, feather stitch until the end, finish with 1 hdc, turn

Repeat R2 for the pattern

Now you have mastered the feather stitch, test out your skills with these patterns (get all 3 in the ebook here) published for free as part of the Advent Calendar Mystery CAL.
