This is a free tutorial for the Celtic Weave crochet stitch. If you would like to add some Celtic inspiration to your project, consider using this beautiful textured stitch, we have best pattern for you. Celtic Weave crochet has also been referred to as the diagonal weave and interweave stitch. Whatever you call it, it creates a beautiful, thick texture that looks stunning! I used this stitch with a simple border to make one of my memory blankets, also It makes a great stitch for warm hats or cowls.
Brighten the winter months with this cheerful project! This dishcloth features a textured woven inspired stitch, using both the front post treble stitch and the back post treble stitch. The end result is a beautiful dishcloth that will last through wash after wash.
For the Celtic Weave stitch you need a foundation chain in multiples of 4 plus 2 (plus 2 for your turning chain)
Row 1. In the 4th chain from your hook (your turning chain counts as your first dc) make a dc. Dc in each chain across.
Row 2. Chain 1 and make the alternate turning chain in the first stitch. *Skip 2 stitches and make a front post treble crochet in the next 2 stitches. Go back to the 2 skipped stitches and make a front post treble crochet (fptr) in the first skipped stitch, working in front of the previous stitches, then make another in the second skipped stitch*
Repeat between *and* then dc in the last stitch.
Row 3. Chain 1 and make the alternate turning chain in the first stitch. Make a back post treble crochet (bptr) around the next two stitches. *skip the next 2 stitches and make a bptr around the next 2 stitches. Go back to the skipped stitches and make bptrs first around the first skipped stitch, then around the 2nd. You need to work behind the first 2 bptr you made so that you start creating the woven effect*
To get to the skipped stitches you will need to work in front of the previous stitches. If you’re not sure how to do this I recommend watching the video. You will find this part around 9 minutes in.
Repeat between *and* ending with 2 bptr around the last 2 fptr in the row below, then dc in the last stitch of the row.

Repeat rows 2 and 3 until you reach your desired height
