📐 How to Crochet a Triangle Motif
Step 1: Start with a Magic Ring
- Make a magic ring.
- Chain 3 (counts as first DC), work 2 DC into the ring. Ch 2, 3 DC—repeat two more times.
- You should have 3 groups of 3 DCs with 3 ch-2 corners. Join with slip stitch. (This forms a triangle.)
Step 2: Build the Triangle
- Slip stitch into next 2 DC and into the corner space.
- Ch 3 (counts as DC), 2 DC, ch 2, 3 DC in the corner space.
- In the side space between corners, 3 DC.
- Repeat around: (3 DC, ch 2, 3 DC) in each corner; (3 DC) in each side.
- Repeat to desired triangle size (usually 4–5 rounds).
Step 3: Finish Off
- Fasten off, weave in ends.
- Block each triangle for uniform size and shape.
🧵 Assembly
- Lay triangles out on a flat surface to plan your color layout.
- Join triangles using whip stitch, slip stitch, or single crochet, depending on your preferred look.
- Once joined, you can add a border around the entire bed cover for a polished edge:
- Suggested border: SC around, then 2–3 rounds of DC with optional picot or shell edging.
💡 Tips for Success
- Block each triangle before joining for consistency.
- Use the join-as-you-go method to save time.
- Keep a consistent stitch tension for clean edges.
- Mix solid and multicolored triangles for added dimension.
