Crochet Post Cluster Stitch

Save this pattern for later!

Crochet post cluster stitch, a beautiful textured design combining back and front post stitches, an ideal pattern for blankets and many other projects.

The design can be used with other simple stitches like woven or even moss stitch for blankets to the break the pattern up and give a warm homely look to it.

I have used for the swatches a worsted weight #4 yarn.

Best Yarn

For great results it is always best to use the recommended yarn in the pattern materials section.

I have used Caron Simply Soft yarn in autumn maze and off white for the crochet post cluster stitch, there is a good range of colours to choose from though in this brand.

Crochet Hook Size

I have used a 4.50mm crochet hook size for the samples of the crochet post cluster stitch, but check the ball band of the yarn that you are using for the correct hook size for that ply.
