Herringbone Puff Stitch – Pattern Description


The herringbone pattern has been made in many stitch variations over the years, today I will show you how to crochet the Herringbone Puff Stitch.

The Herringbone Puff Stitch uses a simple puff stitch to create the classic herringbone design in a thick and warm fabric that has a wonderful bobbly texture.

It works great for baby blankets, afghans, bags, garments, and other accessories.

This is a simple one-row repeat and you won’t be needing the written pattern for reference once you have crocheted a few rows.

The step-by-step written and photo instructions and the video tutorial I made for those of you who are visual learners can be found below.

Pattern Instructions


  • chain 2 at the beginning counts as a stitch
  • stitches contained within ** are the repeat section for that row
  • TIP: make your starting chains loose, the mini puff stitches will make the row wider than it is initially.

Starting Chain: This pattern doesn’t require any multiples, make as many chains as you need. My starting chain is 18ch.
