Special Stitches & Notes
- Pattern multiple: Chain any even number, then add 1 more for the base chain (e.g., sample: ch 20 + 1 = 21).
- Turning chains at the start of each row count as a stitch (place a marker in the top on the start of every last V-stitch or mini bean section for accuracy).
- Modified HDC V-Stitch (no chain between): (2 hdc) in same st, sk next st, rep.
- Mistake Stitch: hdc in first st, sl st in next st; rep across row, always start with hdc.
- Mistake Stitch BLO: Alternate hdc in BLO of sl st, sl st in BLO of hdc.
- Mini Bean (Elizabeth Stitch):
- Insert hook in st, YO, pull up loop (2 loops)
- YO, insert hook same st, YO, pull up loop (4 loops)
- YO, pull through all loops
- Ch 1 to close bean (counts as 1 st)
- Zigzag Slip Stitch (final border): (Sl st in next st, ch 1) around; corners: only 1 zigzag st in each.
- Always end SC rows by working into the top of turning ch for accurate stitch counts.
- Always count stitches after any section with V-sts or beans!
Pattern
Foundation Chain
- Ch an even number for desired width + 1 extra chain (e.g.: 20 + 1 = 21 for a small sample).
Section 1: Modified Half Double Crochet V-Stitch
Row 1:
- Sc in 2nd ch from hook and each ch across. (20 sts for sample.)
Row 2:
- Ch 2 (counts as first st), turn.
- *Sk 1 st, (2 hdc) in next st, sk 1 st; rep from * across.
- When 2 sts remain: sk 1 st, in last st hdc.
Row 3:
- Ch 2 (counts as first st), turn.
- (2 hdc) in center of each V (between 2 hdc of previous row); rep across.
- In last st (turning chain), hdc.
Rows 4–6:
- Rep Row 3 (add more rows for a larger section).
- TIP: Place a stitch marker in top of turning ch at start of last row.

Row 1:
- Ch 1, turn. Sc in each st across. (Remember to work in top of turning ch at the end.)

Row 4 (Mistake Stitch BLO):
- Ch 1, turn.
- hdc in BLO of sl st, sl st in BLO of hdc; rep, end with sl st.
Rows 5–6:
- Rep Row 4 for as many rows of mistake st as desired.
- Always start with hdc, end with sl st.
Section 3: Mini Bean (Elizabeth) Stitch
Row 1:
- Ch 2, turn.
- Sk first st, work mini bean in next st:
- Insert hook, YO, pull up a loop (2 loops)
- YO, insert hook in same st, YO, pull up a loop (4 loops)
- YO, pull through all 4 loops, ch 1 to close
- Sk next st, mini bean in next st; rep across, end with mini bean in last st.
- Ch 1 (closing), ch 1 (turning) at end of row.
Row 2:
- Mini bean in side space of each mini bean from previous row (not the ch spaces between beans), ch 1 to close after each.
- End row: mini bean, ch 1, ch 1 for turning.
Rows 3–X:
- Rep Row 2 for desired height.
- TIP: Place st marker in the turning ch at start of last mini bean row.
Section 4: Single Crochet Separator
Row 1:
- Ch 1, turn. Sc in each ‘bean space’ AND each ch-1 sp across, ending in top of last turning ch.
- Count stitches!
Row 2:
- Ch 1, turn. Sc in each st across.
Section 5: Mistake Stitch Separator (as before)
- Work several rows of mistake stitch and mistake stitch blo as above.
Section 6: Repeat Sections
- Repeat Section 1 (V-Stitch section) as at beginning.
- Always remember to insert st marker in turning ch at the end of section.
- End with a row of sc.
Border
Round 1:
- Ch 1, turn.
- Sc evenly around blanket, 3 sc in each corner.
- On last corner, place 2 sc (since first corner sc counts as third).
- Mark last st (it becomes the starting st for next round and identifies the corner).
Rounds 2–N:
- No ch, no turning. Sc in each st around, 3 sc in each marked corner st.
- Move st marker as you finish each round; only one round will have the join/corner on the last st—after that, corners shift as described in the tutorial.
- Repeat for as many rounds as you desire for border thickness.
Final Round: Zigzag Slip Stitch
- No ch, no turning. In first st: sl st, ch 1.
- [Sl st in next st, ch 1] in each st around.
- Corners: only 1 zigzag sl st in each corner stitch (not 3).
- Fasten off, weave in all ends.
Pattern Corrections
- For all textured sections, always end each row in the top of the turning chain (especially after rows with V-stitches or beans)! A stitch marker makes this easier.
- The mistake stitch only alternates hdc and sl st, starting with hdc and ending with sl st.
- Final round of border: Only 1 zigzag slip stitch per corner—not 3.
Tips
- COUNT STITCHES: After each major section (especially textured/bean/V sections), confirm your count matches the foundation single crochet row.
- Stitch markers are your best friend for remembering the top of turning chains and corners.
- Weave in ends and block for a super flat, professional finish.
- For a denser/warmer throw, add extra rounds of SC border before the final slip stitch round.
