Special Stitches
Filet Mesh:
A repeating pattern of 2 CH followed by a DC, skipping one stitch underneath to create an airy, net like texture.
The Crochet Pattern
Step 1: Starting the Base Panel
- Foundation Chains:
- For a smaller size, CH 18.
- For larger sizes, CH 24 or more (e.g., 30 for a wider panel).
- Row 1:
- In the 3rd CH from the hook, work 5 DC into the same stitch.
- Work 12 DC evenly across the foundation chains for the smaller size (or 18 DC for larger sizes).
- At the last CH, work 5 DC to round out the corner.
- Rotate work and add 12 DC evenly along the opposite side of the foundation chain to create the panel’s base.
- Closing Round:
- Use a SL ST to join into the first DC at the beginning of the row.
Step 2: Building the Panel
- Row 2:
- CH 2 to start the row.
- Work 1 DC + INC (2 DC into one stitch) alternately along the curved edges.
- Maintain straight DC stitches along the flat areas.
- Repeat this increase principle along each curved corner in every row to create clean rounding.
- Continue repeating this structure, increasing only at curved edges, until the size reaches 6 rows (or your desired depth).
Step 3: Filet Mesh Section
- Start Filet Mesh Transition:
- After achieving 6 rows of solid DC stitching, transition into filet mesh:
- CH 2 to begin.
- Skip 1 stitch and DC into the next.
- CH 2, skip 1 stitch, and repeat this structure across the first few stitches to create an open mesh effect.
- After achieving 6 rows of solid DC stitching, transition into filet mesh:
- Maintain filet mesh consistency across the panel’s “front pocket” section. Adjust width by skipping stitches evenly.
- Work filet mesh for 24 spaces for the smaller organizer, or 26 spaces for larger sizes.
- Once at the desired filet height (approximately 12 rows for smaller size), work one final row of solid DC stitching at the top for stability.
Step 4: Hanging Bar and Loop
- Adding Horizontal Bar:
- Insert wooden/plastic bar through the pocket made by filet mesh edge and foundation stitches. Adjust position to align evenly.
- Hanging Loop Section:
- CH 60 or more for the loop.
- Add SC stitches directly on the foundation to secure the loop's ends.
- Complete edge work with SL ST for added neatness.
Assembly & Finished Size
- Connect the loop to the horizontal bar securely with SC stitches and test its stability.
- For a deeper pocket, opt for additional filet mesh rows. Ensure symmetry between pocket sides.
- Estimated final dimensions: 30cm x 15cm for small version; adjust panel width/height for customized size.
Conclusion
Congratulations! Your crochet wall organizer is now complete. This quick and versatile pattern is great for teaching children organizing habits in a fun way. Whether used for toys, plants, or kitchenware, it brings both function and charm to your space.
