Crochet Solid Triangles. Crochet is a wonderful and versatile craft that can be used to create a wide variety of projects. One of the most basic crochet shapes is the triangle, which can be used in everything from blankets to shawls to clothing. In this article, we will discuss how to crochet solid triangles, including the basic pattern and some tips for making them look their best.
Materials Needed
Before you begin crocheting your solid triangles, you will need to gather a few materials. You will need yarn in your chosen color, a crochet hook, and a pair of scissors. The weight of the yarn and the size of the hook you choose will determine the final size of your triangles.
Basic Pattern
To begin crocheting your solid triangle, start by making a slip knot and chaining four stitches. Slip stitch into the first chain to form a loop.
Round 1: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet stitch), and then make 2 double crochet stitches into the center of the loop. Chain 2, and then make 3 more double crochet stitches into the center of the loop. Chain 2, and then make 1 more double crochet stitch into the center of the loop. Slip stitch into the top of the beginning chain 3 to join the round.
Round 2: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet stitch), and then make 1 double crochet stitch into the next 2 stitches. In the chain 2 space from the previous round, make 2 double crochet stitches, chain 2, and then make 2 more double crochet stitches into the same space. Make 1 double crochet stitch into the next 3 stitches. In the chain 2 space from the previous round, make 2 double crochet stitches, chain 2, and then make 2 more double crochet stitches into the same space. Make 1 double crochet stitch into the next stitch, and then slip stitch into the top of the beginning chain 3 to join the round.
Round 3: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet stitch), and then make 1 double crochet stitch into each of the next 4 stitches. In the chain 2 space from the previous round, make 2 double crochet stitches, chain 2, and then make 2 more double crochet stitches into the same space. Make 1 double crochet stitch into each of the next 5 stitches. In the chain 2 space from the previous round, make 2 double crochet stitches, chain 2, and then make 2 more double crochet stitches into the same space. Make 1 double crochet stitch into each of the next 2 stitches, and then slip stitch into the top of the beginning chain 3 to join the round.
Repeat Round 3, increasing the number of double crochet stitches between the chain 2 spaces by 1 on each side of the triangle until you have reached your desired size.
Tips for Crocheting Solid Triangles
Crocheting solid triangles can be tricky, especially when it comes to getting the corners and edges to look neat and even. Here are a few tips to help you get the best results:
- Use a stitch marker to keep track of your rounds. It can be easy to lose track of where you are in the pattern, especially if you are working on a large triangle. A stitch marker can help you keep track of where each round begins and ends.
- Be consistent with your tension. Consistent tension is key to making your triangles look neat and even. Pay attention to how tightly you are holding your yarn and try to keep it consistent throughout the project.
- Block your triangles when you are finished. Blocking is the process of wetting your crochet project and then shaping it to the desired size and shape.
