This crochet wriggle stitch is great for many different reasons. You can create a blanket, bathroom rug or even a big play mat. Once you have the basics down, Alison Russell’s Crochet and Craft Channel teaches you the process on how to create this crochet stitch. Crocheting is super relaxing and my mom used to do it all the time growing up. I’ve always thought it was hard to do, but it does take time to learn. One thing about crochet, I love how the wriggle effect looks for blankets because it looks like a brain. This crochet stitch looks intimidating, but it can be easily made. This pattern looks so pretty and fun to work around with. Plus, you can work your way around any direction and freehand it without any restrictions.

Materials:

  • yarn
  • crochet needle
  • bow

Directions:

First, take the tail end of your yarn, wrap it around two of your fingers and tuck it under to make a little loop. Chain an even number of stitches to suit the centre size of your blanket. Continue to watch Alison Russell’s Crochet and Craft Channel on YouTube for the rest of the crochet process.

Next, wriggle your way down and across and fill in the gaps all around the place to create a nice wriggle effect. Make sure to change directions too.

In conclusion, I love a challenge and love learning new things. This would be a great hobby to pick up to pass time. My mom used to crochet roses and they were the cutest gifts ever. Plus, blankets are always nice too. I would love this as a bathroom mat because it looks super soft and plush.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
