We love finding new stitches for our knitting and crochet projects, and strawberry stitch is a gorgeous one to add to your crochet repertoire.

Strawberry stitch is created by working red and green double and treble crochet stitches in alternate rows, to create the effect of a row of strawberries. It’s not too difficult a stitch to master, making it perfect for crocheters who have learned the basic techniques of how to crochet and are ready to start making fun crochet projects.

There are so many other fun crochet stitch trends to try, like jasmine stitch and tulip stitch, and strawberry stitch is a great one to add to your list.

Crafters from across the world have been taking to social media to share their creations using strawberry stitch. We’ve rounded up some of our favourite creations to inspire you to get stitching!
