Deconstructing the Single Motif: A Step-by-Step Guide

Preamble: The Importance of Consistent Tension Before beginning, it is crucial to maintain consistent yarn tension throughout the project. This is especially important for intricate lace motifs, as even tension ensures that each stitch is uniform, resulting in a finished piece that lies flat and has a clean, symmetrical appearance. Inconsistent tension can lead to a distorted or puckered motif.

Foundation Round The motif begins with a central ring. The most common method for this type of motif is a magic ring, which allows for a tight, closed center. An alternative is to create a chain loop.

  • Magic Ring Method: Create a magic ring. Ch 3 (counts as the first dc). Work 15 dc into the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the initial ch 3. (16 dc).

  • Chain Loop Method: Ch 4. Join with a sl st to the first ch to form a ring. Ch 3 (counts as the first dc). Work 15 dc into the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the initial ch 3. (16 dc).


Round 1 Ch 1. Work 1 sc into the same stitch as the join. Ch 5. Skip 2 dc, work 1 sc into the next dc, ch 5. Rep from * 5 more times. Join with a sl st to the first sc. (8 ch-5 sp).

Round 2 Sl st into the first ch-5 sp. Ch 3 (counts as the first dc). In the same ch-5 sp, work 2 dc, ch 3, and 3 dc. This forms the first corner cluster. Ch 3. Skip the next sc, in the next ch-5 sp, work 3 dc, ch 3, and 3 dc. This forms a corner cluster. Rep from * 3 more times. Join with a sl st to the top of the initial ch 3. (4 corner clusters, 4 ch-3 sp).

Round 3 Ch 1. Work 1 sc into the ch 3 of the first corner cluster. Ch 5. Work 1 sc into the same ch 3 of the corner. This forms the corner loop. Ch 3. Work 1 sc into the next ch-3 sp. Ch 3. In the next corner cluster ch 3, work 1 sc, ch 5, and 1 sc. Rep from * 3 more times. Join with a sl st to the first sc. (4 ch-5 sp, 8 ch-3 sp).

Round 4: The Final Round (Pre-Joining) This final round defines the square shape and creates the joining points. The instructions below are for a standalone motif. The process of joining to other motifs is detailed in the next section.

  • Round 4 (Standalone Motif): Sl st to the center of the first ch-5 sp. Ch 3 (counts as a dc). In the same ch-5 sp, work 2 dc, ch 3, and 3 dc. This is a corner. Ch 1. Skip the next sc and ch-3 sp. Work 3 dc in the next ch-3 sp. Ch 1. In the next ch-5 sp, work 3 dc, ch 3, and 3 dc. Ch 1. Skip the next sc and ch-3 sp. Work 3 dc in the next ch-3 sp. Ch 1. Rep from * 3 more times. Join with a sl st to the top of the initial ch 3. (4 corners, 8 side sections).

The "Join-as-You-Go" Method: Seamless Connections

Understanding the Technique The "join-as-you-go" method allows for the connection of motifs during the final round of the second motif, creating a seamless fabric without the need for bulky seaming afterward. The final result is a clean, continuous, and professional-looking project.  

The method for joining the corners is distinct from the method used to join the sides of the motifs. Corner joins use a simple loop transfer, while side joins are made with "single crochets" to provide a more secure connection.  

Step-by-Step Guide for Joining Motifs

The following guide details the process for connecting motifs as you work the final round of the second motif. The first motif must be completed entirely on its own.

  • Step 1: The First Corner Join

    • Begin working the final round of the second motif until you reach the point where the first corner cluster is complete (3 dc).

    • Instead of working the ch 3, work ch 4.

    • Hold the first motif and the unfinished second motif with their right sides facing up.

    • Pass the hook through the corner space of the first motif.

    • Grab the loop from the second motif that is on your hook and pull it through the corner space of the first motif. This is a slip stitch join.

    • Now, work ch 4 to complete the corner loop.

    • Go back to the unfinished second motif and complete the corner cluster (3 dc in the same stitch).

  • Step 2: Joining the Side Sections

    • Work the side of the motif, but with modifications for joining.

    • After completing the first corner join, ch 1. Work 3 dc into the next side ch-3 sp of the unfinished motif.

    • Ch 1. Now, pass the hook through the corresponding side space of the finished motif and work a sc into that space.

    • Ch 1. Go back to the unfinished motif and complete the side section by working 3 dc in the next ch-3 sp.

    • Repeat this process for each corresponding side section until you reach the next corner.

  • Step 3: Joining Subsequent Motifs (Multi-Point Joins)

    • When joining a third or fourth motif, you will encounter a point where two or more motifs meet.

    • At the corner where multiple motifs meet, you will use the same slip stitch join as described in Step 1, but you will pass the hook through the corner of all the previously joined motifs at that junction point before completing your chains.  

    • After joining the corners, proceed with the side joins as detailed in Step 2.
