How To Crochet Diamond Mesh Stitch

I love creating easy mesh with both knit and crochet stitches. They are great for warm weather garments but can be used year round! I also find that with crocheted mesh you often create what looks like a knit fabric. The diamond mesh stitch is super easy and I used it on my crocheted Infinite Ways Sarong Pattern.  It makes a really light and open fabric, especially when you use a large hook.  This stitch works great for shawls, scarves, or summer wraps and cover-ups.  You can find the written pattern below as well as a short video tutorial below. I hope you enjoy it!

I used the diamond mesh stitch to create this sarong.
You might remember this other mesh stitch that I used in a blanket sweater – it’s a goodie too!

Diamond Mesh Stitch Pattern

Make a chain in a multiple of 4 + 3

Row 1 Sk 1 ch, sc in next, ch 5, sk 3, sc in next stitch across row, turn

Row 2 Ch 5, sc in each ch 5 space across row to last stitch, sc in sc from previous row, turn

Row 3 *Ch 5, sc in each ch 5 space across row, repeat from * across

Repeat row 3 for the rest of the pattern!

Check out the video below to see exactly how it’s done! I don’t know about you, but I’m definitely a visual learner.

 

 

What would you use this stitch for?

      1. Hi Jean,

        Aww, I’m so happy that you like my patterns! Please let me know if you have any questions as you make the top or sarong. And thank you for the kind words!

    2. Hi Jean! I just read your other comment as well. I hope that your 20 year old granddaughter will like the top and sarong! She is so lucky to have a grandma who will knit such fun things for her! You’re welcome for the patterns of course. It’s fun to share and thank you so much for your support! It means a lot to me. 🙂

  2. Hi, I’m new here, just found your blog tonight and even though I was going to watch New Girl and finish a few squares for a crochet blanket, I’ve been here instead. All night. And found 14 patterns that go on my “must do” list! Perfectly beautiful and useful patterns that I can’t wait to get to! Thank you for sharing your hard work. <3

    1. Sorry, forgot to answer, but I’ve used this pattern in the past for a shopping bag kind of thing for fruit and such. Although the bag can be used for much more and the stitch can be so different with a thinner yarn and smaller hook. Love yours, though.

    2. Lol! Well, I’m glad that you like the patterns that you’ve found here. 🙂 I know how it is to collect patterns and never have the time to make them all! You’re so welcome. It is fun for me to share and thank you for your kind words!

  4. Hi Jessica, how do you overlay this diamond mesh as part of a double crochet blanket simultaneously as you work the blanket?
