Victorian Lattice Square Crochet Pattern

Welcome to My Sweet Croche! Today, we embark on a journey into the intricate and elegant world of crochet, diving into the timeless allure of the Victorian Lattice Square pattern. Delicate, refined, and steeped in history, this pattern encapsulates the grace and sophistication of the Victorian era, making it a beloved choice among crochet enthusiasts.

The Victorian Lattice Square design is a mesmerizing combination of delicate stitches that interlace to create a beautifully textured square motif. It embodies the essence of vintage charm, reminiscent of the exquisite architectural details found in Victorian homes and gardens. The intricate interwoven pattern exudes an air of sophistication and refinement, making it an ideal choice for various crochet projects.

Creating this intricate pattern requires a moderate level of crochet expertise, making it an exciting challenge for those looking to expand their skills. The square is typically constructed using basic crochet stitches such as chains, double crochets, and treble crochets, combined with strategic increases and decreases to form the lattice-like appearance.

Materials Needed:

• Size 7/4.5mm crochet hook
• Worsted Weight (WW) yarn (such as Caron Simply Soft)

Stitches and Abbreviations Used:

• SLST: Slip Stitch
• CH: Chain
• SC: Single Crochet
• DC: Double Crochet
• SP: Space
• DC2TOG: Double Crochet 2 Together

Notes:

• At the start of some rounds, create a mock DC consisting of a SC plus CH 1.
• When the pattern instructs to “join with a SLST in top of first DC,” join into the CH 1 of the mock DC.

Written Pattern:

Round 1: Create a magic loop (or CH 4, join with a SLST in the first CH to create a loop). Within the loop, CH 4 (counting as DC and CH 1). DC, CH 1 – repeat to 10 more times. Join with a SLST in the 3rd CH of the CH 4 and pull the loop tight. (12 DC, 12 CH 1 spaces)

Round 2: SC in the next CH 1 space, CH 1 (this SC plus CH 1 counts as a DC). DC in the same space, CH 2. DC2TOG in the next CH 1 space, CH 2 – repeat to 10 more times. Join with a SLST in the 2nd DC. (12 DC2TOG, 12 CH 2 spaces)

Round 3: SC in the next CH 2 space. CH 7, SC in the next CH 2 space, chain 3, SC in the next CH 2 space, chain 3, SC in the next CH 2 space – repeat to 2 more times. CH 7, SC in the next CH 2 space, chain 3, SC in the next CH 2 space, chain 3. Join with SLST to the first SC. (4 CH 7 spaces, 8 CH 3 spaces)

Round 4: [SC, CH 1 (first DC), 4 DC, CH 3, 5 DC] in CH 7 loop. SC in the next CH 3 loop, CH 4, SC in the next CH 3 loop, [5 DC, CH 3, 5 DC] in chain 7 loop – repeat to 2 times. SC in the next CH 3 loop, CH 4, SC in the next CH 3 loop. Join with SLST to the top of the first DC.

Round 5: SC in the next DC, CH 1, DC in the next 3 sts. [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in the next CH 3 sp (corner made). DC in the next 4 sts, CH 4, SC in CH 3 loop, CH 4, skip the next DC, DC in the next 4 sts, [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in the next CH 3 sp – repeat to 2 times. DC in the next 4 sts, CH 4, SC in CH 3 loop, CH 4. Join with SLST in the top of the first DC.

Round 6: SLST in the next DC, SC in the next DC, CH 1, DC in the next 3 sts. [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in CH 3 sp (corner made). DC in the next 4 sts, {CH 4, SC in next CH 4 loop} 2 times, CH 4, skip the next 2 DC, DC in the next 4 sts, [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in CH 3 sp – repeat to 2 times. DC in the next 4 sts, {CH 4, SC in the next CH 4 loop} twice, CH 4. Join with SLST in the top of the first DC.

Round 7: In the same space as join, SC, CH 1, DC in the next 5 sts. [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in CH 3 sp (corner made). DC in the next 6 sts, 2 DC in CH 4 loop, CH 4, SC in the next CH 4 loop, CH 4, 2 DC in the next CH 4 loop, DC in the next 6 sts, [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in CH 3 sp – repeat to 2 times. DC in the next 6 sts, 2 DC in CH 4 loop, CH 4, SC in the next CH 4 loop, CH 4, 2 DC in the next CH 4 loop. Join with a SLST in the top of the first DC.

Round 8: In the same space as the join, SC, CH 1, DC in the next 7 sts. [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in CH 3 sp (corner made). DC in the next 10 sts, 2 DC in CH 4 loop, CH 1, 2 DC in CH 4 loop, DC in the next 10 sts, [2 DC, CH 3, 2 DC] in CH 3 sp – repeat to 2 times. DC in the next 10 sts, 2 DC in CH 4 loop, CH 1, 2 DC in CH 4 loop, DC in the last 2 sts. Join with a SLST in the top of the first DC.

Round 9: SC in each st around, including the CH 1 space, and working [2 SC, CH 3, 2 SC] in each corner CH 3 space. Join with a SLST in the beginning SC and fasten off!
