Discover the delicious squishy bean stitch! These fabulous bean stitch crochet patterns are insanely cozy and visually appealing. And the stitch is easy!
If you've never given this stitch a whirl, I recommend watching our crochet bean stitch video tutorial included below. This is the perfect place to start before diving into a pattern! Written instructions for this stitch can seem a little confusing (what do you mean 6 loops on the hook?), but watching a video really clarifies the process. Soon you'll be addicting!
Below we've included patterns for both the bean stitch and mini bean stitch (or baby bean stitch). Wondering what the difference is? One technique involves those 6 loops on the hook, and the other only requires you to have 4 loops on the hook. Both versions of this stitch provide stunning texture and detail.
While all the patterns below include at least one variation of this stitch, some patterns include traditional single crochets, double crochets, and others to create more of a "sampler" effect.
Many of the beautiful projects below also include color changes. This truly amplifies the effects of this incredible technique!
If you're looking for a new stitch to try that works up fairly quickly and results in a cozy-fabulous project, look no further than these bean stitch patterns!
