Hi everyone, today I have a list of 18 Crochet Triangle Stitch Pattern Ideas!

If you’re looking for a crochet stitch that has triangles in the fabric or the stitches create triangle shapes…then this list is for you!

What can you use these stitches for? Well almost anything you can think of! These stitch patterns would be great for scarves, blankets, sweaters, tablecloths, curtains, market bags, headbands, etc.

Now, this is not a list where you’ll crochet one triangle shape…but you can check out my previous blog post on 23 Crochet Triangle Patterns where you can find free patterns for a variety of triangle shapes!

This list includes an array of triangle stitches, some create a solid fabric, others are great for openwork or lacy projects.

I am using size 10 crochet thread for all of these patterns and a size 1.65mm hook, but you can use any yarn you prefer and an appropriately sized hook.

Alright, let’s jump into this latest list of 18 Crochet Triangle Stitch Pattern Ideas!

#1 Triangle Stitch by Friendly Nettle

Click to learn the Triangle Stitch by Friendly Nettle here.

In this Triangle Stitch pattern by Friendly Nettle, you’ll be crocheting a chain 6, slip stitching into the 3rd chain from the hook, then single crochet, double crochet and treble crochet into the next 3 chains. This forms a little crochet triangle! You’ll continue your base this way until you reach a desired length and then continue on to row 2. Friendly Nettle has a diagram available to view for you as well as written instructions. She is using this stitch to cover a pillow, but you can use this for any fabric that needs to be lightweight or decorative.

#2 Triangle Lace Stitch

#3 Drop Down Triangle Stitch

Click to learn the Drop Down Triangle Stitch here.

The Drop Down Triangle Stitch is a diagram only pattern. There are double crochets that are circled in the diagram. These double crochets need to be crocheted under all 3 of the previous chain spaces below. This kind of “catches” them all and makes it so that you can’t see them very well. When you do this, it makes that middle double crochet drop down lower than the other 2, creating a pretty interesting visual effect.

#4 Labores de Tejido Triangle Stitch Pattern

Click to learn the Labores de Tejido Triangle Stitch here.

This triangle stitch pattern makes your fabric appear to have cute, little, upside down triangles throughout. These triangles are stacked on top of each other, so it’s an easy two row repeat! To make these triangles, you’ll need to make a treble crochet, and then two double crochets into the “post” of the same treble crochet. This gives the triangle a nice point.

#5 Triangle Lace Stitch by Knitting with Chopsticks

Click to learn the Triangle Lace Stitch by Knitting with Chopsticks here.

The Triangle Lace Stitch is created by making a foundation of double crochets and then a row of right triangles. One thing I noticed about this pattern is that the chain 4s in row 2 kind of pulled my fabric, so I found that changing it to a chain 5 made my fabric look a lot neater.

#6 Embossed Triangle Stitch

Click to learn the Embossed Triangle Stitch here.

The Embossed Triangle Stitch from Rich Textures Crochet is a fun, textured stitch that embeds alternating triangle shapes into the fabric. You’ll need to be comfortable with make front post double crochets around single crochet stitches. If you need help finding and counting these stitches, I would recommend using crochet markers so you don’t get lost.

#7 Triangle Lacy Stitch

Click to learn the Triangle Lacy Stitch here.

The Triangle Lacy Stitch is an airy, openwork pattern with large upside down triangles separated by chains. You’ll grow these triangles by increasing by 3 double crochets on each side of the triangle for 3 rows. This is a great stitch to use for lightweight clothing or lace scarves.

#8 Crochet Triangle Stitch by MyPicot

Click to learn the Crochet Triangle Stitch by MyPicot here.

This is a really interesting take on combining crochet triangle stitches and picots. For one row, you’ll be setting up your triangle stitches and in the following row, you’ll be crocheting behind those triangles and adding picots into the spaces between.

#9 Crochet Triangle Top Pattern

Click to learn the Crochet Triangle Top Pattern here.

This is a diagram only pattern that I found on Pinterest. I wish I could find written patterns for these, but this will have to do for now. This pattern is really neat as you’ll be crocheting solid and openwork triangles throughout your fabric.

#10 Crochet Triangles and Cones Lace Stitch

Click to learn the Crochet Triangles and Cones Lace Stitch here.

The Crochet Triangles and Cones Lace Stitch is a unique take on combining different types of stitches to make a fabric embedded with triangles and cones. This pattern is a great choice for lightweight patterns as there are many open spaces throughout.

#11 Inverted Triangle Crochet Stitch

Click to learn the Inverted Triangle Crochet Stitch here.

The Inverted Triangle Crochet Stitch is a triangle pattern that presents “upside down” triangles in a stacked fashion. The creator of the pattern also states that if you turn the fabric upside down, it looks like Christmas trees!

#12 Filet Crochet Triangle Pattern

Click to learn the Filet Crochet Triangle Pattern here.

This is a filet crochet pattern that has an offset triangle design. If you’re not sure what Filet crochet is or how to do it, you’re essentially making either solid or open “blocks” with double crochet stitches. The black dots represent an open block and the solid cream squares represent a solid block.

#13 Zigzag Triangles Crochet Stitch

Click to learn the Zigzag Triangles Crochet Stitch here.

The Zigzag Triangles Crochet Stitch offers a display of little double crochet triangles in a Zigzag fashion. This is a very easy pattern as it’s a one row repeat!

#14 Textured Trees Crochet Stitch

Click to learn the Textured Trees Crochet Stitch here.

The Textured Trees Crochet Stitch shows two different tree motifs throughout the pattern. It’s a textured pattern, as you’ll be crocheting front and back post double crochets to create the outline of the triangles. In this pattern you’ll need to place double crochet stitches in the spaces between the previous rows stitches, not actually into them. Putting them in the spaces between will help taper the triangle into the pointed top.

#15 Mixed Triangles Stitch

Click to learn the Mixed Triangles Stitch here.

This is a simple crochet pattern where you’ll be placing 2 double crochets together with a chain 3 and then placing another 2 double crochets together. It’s almost like a different take on a V stitch, but the effect makes it appear like there’s solid and openwork triangles in the fabric.

#16 Filet Crochet Triangle Stitch 2

Click to learn the Filet Crochet Triangle Stitch 2 here.

Another filet crochet technique, this triangle stitch pattern is a series of symmetrical solid and open triangles.

#17 Crochet Triangle Stitch by BellaCocoCrochet

Click to learn the Crochet Triangle Stitch by BellaCocoCrochet.

A simple, yet beautiful crochet stitch, you can see that this stitch is very similar to a puff stitch, but you’ll be inserting your hook into the next stitch every time you yarn over. These little puff stitches create a three pronged triangle shape.

#18 Triangle Trellis Crochet Stitch

For the last triangle stitch pattern on this list, we have the Triangle Trellis Crochet Stitch! This stitch makes the triangles have a wedged appearance, with one side “weighed” down with more stitches.

What Do You Use Crochet Triangles For?

You can use triangle shapes (sewn together) for blankets, shawls, bags, decorative pieces, or as accessories for amigurumi.

This is definitely a beautiful and unique crochet triangle pattern to make. You’ll start by making 3 “stems” and then crocheting back into those stems with clusters to create leaves. For the last row, those are 4 double crochet popcorns separated by chains.

#12 Long Chain Triangle

A very weird triangle indeed! The Long Chain Triangle is literally made up of long chains, you’ll definitely need to block this piece to get it to look more like a triangle. Start with a chain 9 and close it to make a loop. A chain 2 starts as a double crochet and then chain 7 for the first sides of the triangle. For round 2, it’s a chain 11 and then it increases the chain length by 4 every round.

#17 Beautiful Crochet Triangle Motif

Click here to learn the Beautiful Crochet Triangle Motif.

This motif has a mesh triangle within a solid triangle! I apologize for the slightly blurry image. This was the most clear one I could find of this exact pattern on Pinterest. Start with a ch 6 and sl st to make a loop. Make 12 dc separated by ch 1s for round 1. Round 2, make 5 dc clusters separated by ch 3s. After this it’s fairly easy to determine. I will say that the diagram wants you to end the rounds from 3 and up with a ch 1 hdc, but I found that it made those spaces a little too big compared to all the other ch 3s. I opted to close the rounds by omitting the ch 1 and making a hdc only. For rounds 4, 5, and 6, those are 5 dc popcorns on the corners of the triangle separated by a chain 5. That part is also a little bit blurry. Aside from the blurriness, this is probably my favorite triangle pattern from this list!

#18 Summer in the Village Triangle

This triangle was debuted in Duplet Magazine No. 138, 2012. I believe this is a Ukrainian crochet magazine, but a diagram is available to view for this particular triangle pattern.

#19 Wispweave Triangle

I can’t have a crochet triangle list without including Draiguna’s Wispweave Triangle! This is a beautifully textured triangle motif. You’ll be working front post stitches to make this textured effect. She recommends making this pattern in two colors, however, i opted to use just one. Her instructions are easy to follow as well!

#20 Flower Triangle Pattern

#22 Crochet Heart Triangle Motif

A cute triangle made with 6 hearts! You’ll be sprinkling in a few picots throughout the pattern as well.

#23 Floral Crochet Triangle with Leaves

Click to learn the Floral Crochet Triangle with Leaves here.

For the final crochet triangle pattern on our list, we have another floral triangle, but with a leaf border. I kept seeing this triangle popping up on Pinterest, but without a super clear diagram. However, I finally found one that I was able to read. Start with a magic circle and place 12 single crochets. From there, close, make a single crochet, ch 5, skip a st and repeat around for a total of 6 ch 5 spaces. For round 3, I believe those are a series of 5 double treble clusters. After round 3 it’s easy to read. I suggest blocking this triangle as the leaves will not be very straight.

And that concludes this list of 23 Crochet Triangle Pattern Ideas! I hope you think they’re as inspiring as I do.

Thanks for reading, until next time.
