How to Crochet the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch

/

Hey everyone, today I’m sharing how to crochet the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch and how you can tailor it to fit your own crochet pattern! 

I absolutely love this crochet stitch, it gives your fabric the appearance of lacy diamonds, which is great for gothic crochet patterns.

The original Gothic Crochet Stitch was created by astra.lebedeva2019, who can be found on Instagram. I became very inspired to crochet some sort of lacy crochet pattern with this stitch. However, I discovered what I wanted to use it for…well it just didn’t quite work the way I wanted it to! 

I needed the diamond stitches to be thicker and more chains in between the diamonds. This was to give a more lacy look to my particular project, hence the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch was born.

For this crochet stitch pattern, I’m using crochet thread from Hobby Lobby’s Artiste line, specifically in Orchid. The black yarn pictured is Rainbow Cotton from Hobbii. 

I think the black yarn works better for a gothic crochet pattern (for obvious reasons), but it can be pretty difficult to see the stitches in the following tutorial. So, I’ve opted for a lighter color (the Orchid) in order for you to be able to actually see.

Of course, you can use any yarn or hook size that you like, I just really like to crochet lace, so I’m using crochet thread with a 1.65mm crochet hook.

What is the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch best used for?

I personally crocheted a Gothic Crochet Table Runner with this stitch, which I think looks pretty great (although I’m obviously biased)! 

This stitch would be a good choice to use on scarves, shawls, light weight blankets, veils, market bags…really anything that you can think of that would be great for lace crochet stitches!

What is the repeat formula for the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch?

The repeat formula for this crochet stitch is 12+6. This means that you will chain a multiple of 12 chains and then add 6 more chains for the turning chain. 

For example: 12 x 3 = 36 chains, then + 6 more chains for the turning chain to = 42 chains.

The turning chain in this pattern counts as a treble crochet and a chain 2. 

What if I want to make a foundation row of single crochets, half double crochets, double crochets, etc.?

Go for it! The following instructions for the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch work into the chains of your foundation row, however some crocheters may want a foundation row with stitches in it already.

In order to make a foundation row of single crochets, half double crochets, double crochets, treble crochets or whatever tickles your fancy, you’ll need to make sure that the total amount of stitches in that foundation row is a multiple of 12. 

It’s also up to you if you want to count your turning chain or not. If you want to count it…just remember to keep your total stitch count to a multiple of 12.

Materials Used:

Abbreviations Used:

  • YO – yarn over
  • Ch(s) – chain(s)
  • St(s) – stitch(es)
  • Dc – double crochet
  • Trc – treble crochet

Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch Pattern:

For this swatch, I am going to ch a total of 54 (12 x 4 = 48, + 6 for the turning chain)

Row 1: *YO twice, insert into 9th ch from hook, pull up a loop, YO and pull through 2 loops (3 loops on your hook).

Crochet Stitch That Looks Like Diamonds

Skip a ch, YO insert your hook into next ch, pull up a loop, YO and pull through 2 loops (4 loops on your hook).

YO, skip a ch,  insert your hook into next ch, pull up a loop, YO and pull through 2 loops (5 loops on your hook).

YO, skip a ch, insert your hook into next ch, pull up a loop, YO and pull through 2 loops (6 loops on your hook).

Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch 4

YO, pull through 4 loops, YO and pull through 2 loops, YO and pull through 2 loops again. This is your triangle decrease stitch.

Ch 2, skip 2 chs, trc into next ch, ch 1, dc into the first two “loops” in the leg of the trc you just crocheted (see pic below for placement).

Ch 1, dc into same space, ch 1, dc into same space again, ch 1, dc one more time into the same space (you should have 4 posts separated by 3 ch 1s). This is your triangle increase stitch. 

Ch 2, skip 2 chs*, repeat from *to* trc into the last ch.

Row 2: Ch 6 (counts as a trc and ch 2), turn, for this row, we will be making triangle decrease stitches on top of the previous row’s triangle increase stitches and vice versa. 

The last stitch from row 1 should have been a triangle decrease stitch, so for row 2, we will begin with a triangle increase stitch. 

If your row 1 ended with a triangle increase, skip to row 3!

Skip the next ch 2 space, make a trc, but place it under the next stitch (not into it as you normally would). I find it helpful to think of this space as the “neck” of the last row’s triangle decrease stitch. Just find a space to insert your hook into the neck and trc there. If you trc into the stitch normally, the diamonds we are trying to create will look off-center (see pic below for placement).

Triangle increase stitch as you did in row 1 (ch 1, dc in the front 2 loops of the trc, ch 1, dc again in the same space).

Ch 2, now we will make a triangle decrease into the next triangle increase.

Make a triangle decrease stitch as we did in row 1, using only the dcs and trc sts and skipping the ch 1 spaces between. 

If crocheted correctly, this will give us our first diamond shape.

Ch 2 and repeat these two stitches with a ch 2 between each triangle increase and decrease.

After the last ch 2, ( you should have 3 chs left), finish your row by skipping 2 chs and trc into the last ch.

Row 3: Ch 6 (counts as a trc and ch 2), turn, the first st below should be a triangle increase stitch, so we will begin with a triangle decrease stitch. Make a decrease stitch as you did in row 1, but use the tr and dcs, while skipping the ch 1’s between. Ch 2, and triangle increase into the next triangle decrease like we did in row 2 (trc into the “neck” of the decrease stitch below, not the actual st). 

There is no difference in this row compared to row 2, other than starting with a different triangle stitch. 

Repeat rows 2-3 

And there you have it! That is the Modified Gothic Crochet Stitch! 

Thank you and I’ll see you next time.

Magic Circle VS Chain 2: Which Method is Better in Crochet?

/

Hello everyone, today we are going to learn the difference between using a magic circle (sometimes called a magic ring) in crochet vs. a chain 2.

If you’ve been crocheting for a while, you might have noticed that some patterns start in the center and grow outward. Those patterns usually use a chain 2 or a magic circle to start. 

Crochet patterns that start from the center and grow out can include projects like blankets, hats, granny squares, doilies, shawls, and especially…amigurumi!

In this post, we’re going to look at the difference between using these two techniques. Which one is better to use? The magic circle or a chain 2?

Related Posts:

Let’s look at the magic circle first.

What is a magic circle?

A magic circle is basically just a modified slipknot. When you make a magic circle, you’ll notice that you have a circle with your crochet hook attached at the top. This is what a magic circle looks like:

Magic Circle Crochet in Hand

You’ll see crochet makers use this for many patterns, and it is most commonly used in amigurumi (doll making using crochet).

Pros of the Magic Circle:

  • It’s easier to work into.
  • Has a less noticeable “center hole.”
  • You can adjust the size of the hole in the center.
  • Makes your work look neater.

Cons of the Magic Circle:

  • More difficult to learn.
  • Some crocheters report the magic circle coming undone more easily if you don’t sew the tail in securely.
  • Does not work well with certain types of yarn (velvet, chenille or anything that likes to split).

What about the Chain 2 Method?

The chain 2 (it can be any number of chains really), is a common way to start crocheting from the center out.

You put your yarn on your hook with a slipknot (like normal), chain 2, and then start crocheting into the first chain you made.

Chain 2 VS Magic Ring in Hand

Let’s take a peek at the pros and cons of using this method.

Pros of the Chain 2:

  • Much easier to do, especially as a beginner.
  • Works great for most projects.
  • Some crocheters claim this method is sturdier.

Cons of the Chain 2:

  • Tends to have a more noticeable starting hole.
  • You cannot adjust the size of the starting hole well.
  • Difficult to crochet a large amount of stitches into the starting hole.
  • May leave a “bump” and not look as neat compared to the magic circle.

Now, let me show you the visual differences between the magic circle and the chain 2:

Magic Ring vs Chain 2
Chain 2 vs magic ring

The first picture above shows what a chain 2 with 8 starting double crochets (with a second row of 2 double crochets in each stitch) looks like. I’ve even pulled the tail end of the yarn pretty tight here.  

The second picture shows what the magic circle looks like with 8 starting double crochets (with a second row of 2 double crochets in each stitch).

As you can see, if you’re making a flat circle, they really don’t look that different (in terms of the starting center hole). I think maybe the magic circle looks a little neater, but I’ll leave that up to you to decide.

Now let’s add even more starting stitches and see what happens.

Ch 2 vs Magic Circle
Magic Circle Crochet

The first picture on the left depicts the chain 2. I’ve placed 18 double crochets into the first chain. You can see that there is a noticeable hole in the center here. I’ve pulled the tail end as tight as I could here too.

The second picture shows the magic circle, which has 18 starting double crochets as well. You can see that the center hole isn’t as noticeable as compared with the chain 2 method.

Okay, but what if you’re making amigurumi? 

Let’s see what happens when you make a sphere shape (a common shape in amigurumi) with the magic circle vs. the chain 2 method.

Difference between magic circle and chain 2
Magic circle vs ch

The first sphere on the left is made with the starting chain 2. I’ve placed 8 single crochet into the center and grew it out from there. As you can see, it looks pretty good!

Now the second sphere on the right is made with the magic circle. Again, I’ve placed 8 single crochet into the circle and created the sphere shape. This method looks pretty good too! 

Both methods look basically the same, however if you’re putting a lot of stitches into the center for a spherical shape, I would choose the magic circle method. This will prevent the big hole in the center.

When making amigurumi, you want your stitches to be tight, and it’s important to make sure the center stays closed so your stuffing doesn’t pop out!

Now let’s see what happens when we make a cone shape. This is another common shape in amigurumi.

Ch 2 or Magic Ring
Ch 2 Cone Side

These two pictures show what a cone shape looks like from the top and the side with the chain 2 method. Again, I think the tip (center hole) looks great.

Magic Circle Cone
Magic Ring Crochet Cone Side

As you can see here, they both look practically the same! Maybe the magic circle looks a little tiddier? But it’s almost impossible to tell. 

Magic circle vs.  chain 2 in crochet: which one is better to use?

So now that you know the differences between using a magic circle vs. a chain 2 in crochet, which one is better to use?

Well…to put it simply, it’s up to you and what your pattern is supposed to look like.

Both methods are completely valid to use.

If it were up to me, I would use whichever method is going to make you less frustrated.

Remember, crochet is supposed to be fun! 

I personally like to use the magic circle over the chain method, but I understand why someone wouldn’t want to use it. It can be tricky to get down! I just think it’s easier to crochet into since the starting circle doens’t get any bigger.

So to recap, the magic circle and chain 2 method look basically the same for most patterns, but there are instances where one may be preferred over the other.

The magic circle can be difficult to learn, but looks a little neater. 

The chain 2 method is much easier, but may cause unwanted center holes.

The magic circle is used for amigurumi to get a tight center, however, if you use the chain 2 and pull the tail end tight enough, it can work too.

Ultimately it’s up to you to decide what’s going to cause you the least amount of grief to get your crochet project up and going!

Which method do you prefer? Feel free to comment below!

Thanks and I hope this post helped you figure out the differences between the Magic Circle and the Chain 2 in crochet!

I’ve personally crocheted each of these leaf patterns and I’m certain you will enjoy them too! Ok, let’s jump into this wonderful list of 11 Crochet Stitches that Look Like Leaves!

#2 Crochet Leaf Stitch

Crochet Leaves Stitch

The Crochet Leaf Stitch from MyPicot, is a repeating, zig zag pattern that boasts a simple, undivided leaf. This stitch is made by increasing on the sides of the leaf until you reach the designated amount of stitches, then decreasing until you make the tip of the leaf. All of the leaves are separated by a chain 2, giving the leaves a little bit of a lacy look. 

#3 Leaf Stitch

Crochet Leaves Pattern Free

The Leaf Stitch is another crochet stitch that looks like a leaf by MyPicot. This stitch works up in 7 rows and then repeats itself. With the leaf stitch, you’ll create a base (stem) for the leaf, and then create puff stitches into the base to create the leaf-like look. 

#4 Turkish Leaf Stitch

Crochet Leaf Stitch Pattern

I actually don’t know what the name of this leaf stitch pattern is called, however, when clicking on the link above, the pattern is from a Turkish website, so that’s what I’m going with! This crochet leaf stitch is a chart only pattern, there are no written instructions that I can find. I love how this leaf works up, especially with the lacy chains and the shells that make it appear like there are strips in the work. 

#5 Oak Leaf Crochet Stitch

Learn the Oak Leaf Crochet Stitch here.

Crochet Leaf Stitch 2

This is another lacy crochet stitch that resembles a leaf from an oak tree. The oak leaves are created by building up on double crochets from the base, and then creating the rounded leaf edges by dc3tog, chaining 2, and then double crocheting into the same stitch as the 3rd double crochet in the dc3tog. The leaves are then surrounded by a pretty, 3 double crochet cluster border in a diamond shape. 

#6 Easy Crochet Leaf Stitch Pattern

Learn the Easy Crochet Leaf Stitch Pattern here.

crochet stitch leaf

The Easy Crochet Leaf Stitch Pattern by CrochetBeja is a textured crochet stitch that looks like a simple leaf.

I love the way this stitch works up, and it gets easier once you understand what is happening in the pattern, but her blog is in Spanish, and her tutorial video is in Spanish as well. So unless you can understand Spanish, you might have a little trouble!

I don’t speak the language, but I was able to follow along with her video by slowing the playback speed down. She has a chart that is available as well, but in my opinion, it doesn’t make a lot of sense until you work a few rows in her video.

You’ll be utilizing front post and back post double crochets in this pattern, which give the crochet leaf the appearance of “popping” out of the fabric. 

#7 Big Lacy Leaf Stitch

Click to learn the Big Lacy Leaf Stitch here.

Lacy Crochet Leaf Stitch

The Big Lacy Leaf Stitch is a chart only pattern that depicts large leaves separated by long chains. In this pattern you’ll be performing many yarn overs to create the body of the leaves. This crochet pattern has arrows pointing in the correct direction to help you read the chart.

#8 Twig Stitch 

Click to learn the Twig Stitch here.

Twig Stitch

The Twig Stitch is a crochet stitch with leaves that are joined at the top by the next leaf to the left and right. This stitch is similar to #2 in this list, but is not in an offset zigzag pattern. This is a very pretty lacy leaf stitch, however the video that is available is in Spanish. Again, if you do not speak the language, I suggest slowing down the playback speed in order to follow along.

#9 Extreme Drop Leaf Stitch

Click to learn the Extreme Drop Leaf Stitch here.

Extreme Drop Leaf Stitch

The Extreme Drop Leaf Stitch by Nana’s Crafty Home, is a textured, compound leaf stitch. This crochet stitch works the best when using two different yarn colors, so that the leaves can stand out. To create the leaves, you’ll be crocheting ch 1 spaces in the 4 rows leading up to the leaf row, and then creating puff stitches in those spaces. It can be tricky pulling your hook through all the loops at once on the leaves, so I suggest pulling up loops loosely if needed.

#10 Beautiful Crochet Leaves Stitch

Click to learn the Beautiful Crochet Leaves Stitch here.

Crochet Leaf Lace

This is a crochet stitch that looks like a lacy, lattice filled with leaves. This is a video tutorial, so slow down the playback speed if needed. The video creator has placed how many chains you need in the video, which is nice so you’re not counting the amount of times they chain! This is the perfect stitch for any lacework pattern you’d like to create.

#11 Small Talk Shawl

Click to learn the Small Talk Shawl here.

Small Talk Crochet Leaves

The Small Talk Shawl, by Cheri McEwen, displays drooping, lacy, crochet leaves in a half drop repeating pattern. If you’re not interested in crocheting a shawl, after you learn how to make her leaves, you can take the leaf pattern and design your own type of fabric if you wish. I really like her crochet leaf pattern, she uses an interesting decrease technique that makes the leaf appear more open and airy.

I hope you enjoyed this list of 11 Crochet Stitches that Look Like Leaves! I know that whatever you crochet, it’ll look great with these beautiful leaves. Remember, that crochet is all about creativity and personal flair, so feel free to experiment with different colors, yarn weights, and hook sizes. 

Happy crocheting! Until next time!
