How to Crochet a Puff Stitch Square! 

This cro­chet tuto­r­i­al will guide you through cre­at­ing a stun­ning Puff Stitch Square pat­tern. Whether you’re a sea­soned cro­cheter or just start­ing, we’ll take you through the process step by step, mak­ing it easy for begin­ners. Our detailed instruc­tions, writ­ten pat­tern, and video tuto­r­i­al will ensure your suc­cess in craft­ing this square. Feel free to get cre­ative by using dif­fer­ent col­ors and yarn types, and don’t for­get to join our sup­port­ive Face­book group to share your beau­ti­ful pat­tern cre­ations.

To begin, start with a mag­ic ring or mag­ic cir­cle, and insert your hook for the first stitch. You can use a slip knot for added secu­ri­ty. Then, work your sin­gle cro­chet (sc) into the cen­ter of the ring. Chain spaces will help you achieve a square shape.

Crochet a Puff Stitch Square

As you progress, exper­i­ment with puff stitch­es, tre­ble cro­chet clus­ters, and oth­er spe­cial stitch­es to cre­ate a tex­tured and beau­ti­ful pat­tern. You can use dif­fer­ent col­ors for the flower motifs or the back­ground, giv­ing your square a unique and eye-catch­ing look.

I cre­at­ed this cro­chet puff stitch square with medi­um worsted yarn and an H hook. Make it more promi­nent with a larg­er hook. If you need more assis­tance, watch the video below. It mea­sures 4.5 inch­es by 4.5 inch­es.
