Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make the Moonstone Stitch!
First, with any project you'll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this stitch
For this tutorial you'll need to know how to make Chains (CH), I have a tutorial here! How to make the Single Crochet Stitch (SC), tutorial here! How to make the Half Double Crochet Stitch (HDC), tutorial here! And how to make the Half Double Crochet Decrease Stitch (SC DEC), tutorial here!
Starting from the beginning, make an even number of chains
❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈
Row 1: Make 1 HDC into the 2nd CH from your hook
Then make 1 HDC into each CH across
Row 2: CH 1
Make 1 SC into the 1st ST
Then make 1 SC into each ST across
CH 3: Make 2 CHs
Make 1 HDC DEC across 2 STs
Yarn over your hook 1 time, insert your hook into the next ST, grab that yarn and pull it through, pulling up 1 loop, yarn over your hook 1 time, insert your hook into the next ST, grab that yarn and pull it through, pulling up 1 loop, yarn over your hook 1 time, take that yarn through all of the loops on your hook to complete
*Make 1 HDC DEC into last ST and next ST
Yarn over your hook 1 time, insert your hook into the last ST, grab that yarn and pull it through, pulling up 1 loop, yarn over your hook 1 time, insert your hook into the next ST, grab that yarn and pull it through, pulling up 1 loop, yarn over your hook 1 time, take that yarn through all of the loops on your hook to complete
Repeat the step above from * until you only have 1 ST left
Make 1 HDC into the last ST to complete this row
Row 4: Make 1 CH
Make 1 SC into the 1st ST
Make 1 SC into each ST across to complete this row
Row 5: Make 2 CHs
Make 1 HDC into the 1st ST
Make 1 HDC into each ST across
You would now repeat Rows 3, 4 & 5 in order for however long your want your project
This is what the Moonstone Stitch should look like when completed!
