Facets Organizer Crochet Pattern | Easy Free Catch-All Bowl Tutorial

Okay, so to start off our first motif, we're going to do a magic adjustable loop, and we're going to single crochet five times into it. So whenever I do my magic adjustable loop, I hold my yarn with the tail and the working yarn in one hand and the loop in the other, and just twist down, and then I pinch it, and then I'm going to reach through and grab my working yarn. So my tail is down here, I'm going to grab my working yarn and pull that up through the loop. And then so I don't have to worry about it getting undone, I'm going to slip stitch it. So I'm just going to pull my yarn through and tighten that down. And that kind of locks in my loop so I can go ahead and start working on the rest of the round. Okay, so the first thing I'm going to do to start this round is chain one. And then we're going to do five single crochets into our magic adjustable loop. So we're going to reach all the way through, yarn over, so just lay over your yarn, pull up a loop, keep them close together so you're not having huge wide single crochets, then yarn over, back to front, turn your hook down so you can get through your stitches easily, and pull through both loops. We're going to do that four more times. Pull up a loop, yarn over, pull through, Three single crochets, four, and you'll notice I kind of have to like pull down on this because when I'm working around, it kind of wants to flop and get in the way. So just kind of pull down so that you have a space that's out of your way and it's easy to work into. So I've got five single crochets now. If you lose track and you can't count the fronts, Always turn it sideways and count your Vs on the top. They're much easier to see. You can see one, two, three, four, five, and that's our starting chain. Now we're going to close our loop. So we take our tail and then we hold on to our last stitch made, not too tight because you need the yarn to be able to pull through, but you're kind of holding it there so that you can pull it through and just pull that tail until you get your center hole of your round closed. Now you'll notice That it doesn't want to go all the way around. That's because single crochet usually wants six chains, I mean six single crochets for a full round. It works best in groups of six. But we're making a pentagon, not a hexagon, so we have to kind of make this leap over here when we join. So when you get going after the, when you get to the third round, you're not going to be able to tell anymore that there's this jump, or it's not going to be as difficult to work into, but um the first two rounds are going to be a little bit, A bit. There's no spaced out when you join, not a big deal though. So you might be saying, where do I join? It's kind of difficult to tell, like, is this my first single crochet or is that the chain? So what I always suggest is counting backwards. There's only five stitches, so it's easy to do. So we look at this stitch here. We don't count what's on our hook. That's just our working loop. We have one, two, three, four, five, and this is where we want to join in that fifth. Single crochet the first one we made. So this is our chain one. We're not going to work into that We're gonna go under both loops So you can see I'm kind of just going across the front here and it's gonna kind of work out once we get it all Joined up so I am going under both loops of that first single crochet yarn over Pull through and then I'm going to kind of poop it up, just kind of poop it out, push it out so that it's more of a round and then pull that through so you can see it's gotten all the way around, kind of a long slip stitch, not a huge deal. It will get hidden very quickly. So then our next round, we're going to start off with another chain one and then we're going to do two single crochets in every stitch around. So this. here worked into that very first single crochet so we're going to do two single crochets right into that same place that we join so we're going to enter in pull up loop pull through two do that again then go to our next stitch the next v you see go under both loops pull up a loop getting stuck a little bit pull through two do that again in the same stitch so we're gonna have ten stitches when we're done with this round So we're doubling our stitches and it's going to make it easier to join. And you can see my hole is opening up a little bit. Don't worry at the end I can pull it closed again so if your hole opens up don't worry about it. And then again with that huge slip stitch, it looks like a stitch that you should work into. It's right here. It looks like a full-size stitch, but it's actually not. So make sure that you're counting your stitches as you go. So if you're not sure, remember to stop and count those Vs. So we have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. So I'm already done and I'm ready to join. So I'm going to go under those two loops of that very first single crochet again and what you can also do is use a stitch marker. put a stitch marker in that first stitch and it'll be very easy to find at the end of your round. so we're going to slip stitch again. again i'm just going to push it out to bring it close together and now we've got round two done. okay so round three we're actually going to start making the pentagon. so right now we just have a circle so we're going to start creating corners, five corners for our pentagon. so we're going to do a chain one first And in that same stitch that we joined, we're going to do a single crochet, just one, and then our repeat is going to be that, well, technically we're going to do three single crochets in the next stitch and then begin our repeat, so let's do that first. So we're going to single crochet three times in this next stitch to create our first corner. So you're just doing one, going back in that same spot, doing another, And going back in that same spot and doing another. So it doesn't look like much of a corner now, but as we keep going, you will see it start to form. Now we'll have our repeat. So we're going to do a single crochet in our next stitch and then three more in the stitch after. We're going to do that all the way around four times. So sometimes when you do these three single crochets, it's going to cover that next stitch a little bit. So you want to pull it over and make sure that you're working into the correct stitch because if it covers it enough, You might start working in the stitch after, and then you're going to lose a stitch. So make sure that you kind of just pull over those three single crochets after you make them to see your next stitch. So again, we're doing three here, two, three, and then you see it's too bad. When we get to the next round, it's a little bit more pronounced, but not too too bad. So we do one in the next stitch and then three again. So we just keep doing that around. We We'll have 20 stitches at the end because we're increasing. five of our stitches by two extra stitches by doing three in there so make sure that you have 20 at the end it's a little bit easier to tell where your stitches end the slip stitch is not as big this is my slip stitch here but you also end with three single crochets so if you are doing another single crochet you have gone too far you should end your repeat with three which is what Which is what I'm doing right now. And then we'll join in that first single crochet. So now you can see our join is much shallower, it's not as wide, everything's kind of working out nice and neat, and we're ready for our next round. Okay, so for round one, two, three, four, we are going to expand our pentagon. We already have a mini pentagon, you can kind of see the points here, so we're just going to make it bigger. So we're going to start with the chain one, and we're going to single crochet into that stitch that we joined. Then what we need to do is get to that middle stitch of our three single crochets in one stitch because that's where we need to increase on every middle one. So if you're good at reading your stitches that's what we're going to be doing. We're just going to be single crocheting until we get to the middle and then we increase with three single crochets. Otherwise just follow the pattern. It tells you to single crochet in the next stitch and then you're going to single crochet I'm going to crochet three times in this stitch. Which is the middle of the previous. Then you're going to single crochet in the next three stitches. So one in each of the next three and that's going to get you to the next middle stitch. So that's our pattern repeat is single crochet in each of the next three stitches and then single crochet three times in your next stitch. Then we're gonna do three again, one in each of the next three. Sorry, hopefully that didn't seem confusing. And then three. Single crochets in our next stitch. So we're going to keep going around until we get to that last increase and then we just have one extra stitch to do at the end. So we'll come back and meet there to finish that last stitch together. Okay, here's my last single crochet of the three. And then you'll see one stitch all by itself after the repeat and it just says single crochet in your next stitch. So you can kind of see it's starting to cover the stitch a little bit more. So just kind of pull it over and you can see your stitch nice and easy. And now our join is very close together. We're like right next door, so it's not a big leap at all. So we're going to join in that first single crochet. Now you can really see our pentagon has taken shape. So we only need one more round and then we are ready to go and you can make 10 more of these so that we can put our little container together. Okay our final round, round five. Again it's a little easier to read your stitches now and now you can kind of see where these points are. We're just single crocheting to that point and putting three in each of those points again so if you're good at reading that's all you're gonna do. Otherwise we're gonna single crochet in the Stay in the same stitch that we joined. Then we're going to single crochet in our next two stitches. Then we're going to do three single crochets in our next stitch to make our point even pointier. Then we're going to single crochet in the next five stitches, one single crochet in each of those. That's our repeat again. We do five, one in each of the next five, and then we do three in our corner again. Not too difficult. So Again, we're going to do one in each of the next five and then three in the corner. Just keep doing that until you get to this corner here, this last corner, and then we'll do the last couple stitches together again. All right, there's the last three of my last corner. So now I just have two more to do. You can see it's getting covered quite a bit. If I just did that, my whole stitch that I need to work into is pretty much covered. So you just got to pull that back and do two more single crochets. And then you're ready to join. So you'll notice that our pentagon has gotten a little wavy. Don't worry about it, that's just because we added so many increases in such a small period of time. So I'm just going to yarn over and fasten that off. My tail's not too long so I'm just going to pull it through. Um, it's very long actually. I'll cut that before I weave it in but you'll notice it's a little wavy. Don't worry once we sew them all together that's going to work itself out so don't worry. I recommend weaving in your ends before you start sewing. You could technically keep this long and use it to start stitching but I think it's going to be easier if you just do corner to corner. But it's totally up to you. If you don't want to waste yarn, you don't want to lose those bits that you cut off from weaving in, you can save this and use it to help you sew. But I'm going to weave mine in just so it's a little easier to see like what I'm doing. So go make 10 more of these and then we'll We'll meet back up to start sewing. All right, I have all 11 finished and all the ends woven in. So now what we need to do is start sewing these together. So you're gonna start with six of them. So just grab six and put the other aside. One, oh there it is, that's only 10. Okay, so we need a base. And what we're gonna be doing is, sewing it backwards or inside out and then we're going to flip it right side out when we're done. So we have five sides to our pentagon so we're going to be sewing five of these to each side and what we want Right sides together, and then we're going to do is we want to place them to whip stitch one edge together, and we're going to do that, so this is what we're going to do first are all the bottoms, so then once this one's done, we'll plop it open and put this one down and sew it and continue around, then after that, then we'll start sewing the sides of these together, so first, let's start with one, so just take two of them, Place them on top of each other. Get a length of your yarn on your yarn needle, so I'm already put together here. And then we're going to use our V's. So the same thing that we used to count, we're going to whip stitch through. So each side, you know, we have our point and we're going to use our points to start with. You're gonna look for your three points and that middle one. is where we're going to put our our three single crochets and the middle one is where we're going to begin our sewing. Trying to talk over the cicadas over here. They're going crazy today. And then we're going to do the same thing on the other side. Look for our point and start underneath You can tie it off if you want to, you know, make a knot around this to start, or you can just kind of get near to the end of your tail and leave it and just keep on whip stitching, and it will, you know, kind of get locked in there so you don't have to worry about it, but leave it long enough that you can weave that end in as well. So we're going to try to see how many sides we can do with this one length of yarn. I wouldn't cut it too long, but make it long enough that you You can work with it, you know. do a few sides without having to cut a new piece so one thing normally when you're whip stitching is you do one whip stitch per stitch but i want really good structure for this since it's going to kind of be three-dimensional so i'm going to do double whip stitching so i'm going to go back into that same two stitches and do another Whip stitch in there just to really lock in everything and I can even kind of put my tail through there so to kind of lock it in. So every single one of these I'm going to do double whip stitching. So I'm going to go to my next stitch you can see the two v's so I'm going to go under those two go across to those two v's and pull that nice and tight and as you're going just Then just yank it tight and then go back in for another one. I'm gonna stuck on my tail here. I've got two now so I'm going to move on to the next one. Go under both of those loops. You kind of get the gist of it. I'm going to do the rest of this one real quick and then we'll show you how to join up the next one. Okay, so I'm at that corner stitch, so I've gone all the way across and now I'm at the corner stitch. I'm going to do two in there also and then I'm going to join in the next motif. But I'm going to do it in that same stitch, so it's going to have like four stitches on the corner. So I'm going to flip this one open, grab my next one, again put it right side down. And then we're gonna keep on working that corner, so you just gotta make sure that you keep track of that corner so that you can stitch into it. So again, I'm looking for my three stitches, and here's my middle stitch, so I'm going under that one. Notice I'm going over, so it comes over to the next one, then I'm going back in that corner stitch. Getting all twisted here let me fix my twist real quick. So to fix my stitch I just held this up and dropped my needle and let it untwist itself so if you have that problem just drop your needle. So again I'm going to go in there twice again or this is the second time so this is twice and then I'm going to do my next stitch just like we did on the previous motif. Be better if it was in the picture. Then we're going to do that again all the way around so you can see how we joined that corner. So we're going to do that for each of the other three motifs. So just keep going around and then we'll meet up. After we get all of these attached, so just remember to do the double in each corner when you join them and to put your right sides together. And also I'll just show you real quick the corner, how it's nice and sturdy and there's no gaps. So doing that double doesn't affect the placement or anything, it's just helping to secure it so when we flip it right side out, we're not going to have holes anywhere. So just keep on going. Make sure you're tightening your stitches after each pull so that it's nice and secure. Just kind of pull it out if you get all tangled up and then we'll meet up at the end of securing all five of these. Okay, I've got all of them on. I'm just on this last corner here so again this is the last corner of the last motif but i need to sew it into that first corner that i did so i just have to get those two parts here and then i will be done with the base and then i am going to do the sides next So I can leave this on there. I don't have too much left, but I have enough to do this one side. So what we're going to do is do each side here coming up. So we have our base here. Now we're going to put our right sides together and go up the side to now create kind of the bottom part of The container so just make sure as you work put the two that you're working Right sides together so it'll be a little funky as you go but you're just going to go up to that first corner because we're going to put the next ones in kind of like how we did down here where we're just going a big circle. So it'll be easiest to do our sides to the corner on each one so you just get kind of short pieces of yarn to do those and cut them off and then we're going to go around to create the next tier. So, since I already have this here, I'm going to put these two together, and I'm going to line up my stitches again. The easiest thing, if it's a little difficult to tell down here where to start, is to look for those corners. So here's my corner stitch here, here's my corner stitch here, so I'm going to line those two up, and then I'm going to line the rest up as I go. So I can see down here, this is where I want to start. my stitch or my whip stitch because I've already got the corners done so I don't need to put more in there so I'm going to go to the next stitch after go under both those loops again and then again do those double stitches that one my next one is right here and I just pull it nice and tight you want it all nice and tight as you can go so that when you fold it or um not fold it I can't think of the word when you. Put it to the right side out. It will be nice and tight throughout and look uniform rather than having maybe a little gap somewhere because you didn't pull it tight in a certain area. So I'm going to keep going until I get to the corner here and then Since this is a short, I'm not going to fasten it off. I'm going to just weave it in when I go. So here's where one of my joins are. So that's one thing because you're going to have one on every single motif. It kind of, you'll see kind of like a little bump and then a stitch. So that whole thing is one stitch. So you're going to work kind of just go to where the stitch is and use that and then your whip stitch will cover that bump that was made from where you fastened off. Okay, I am right on this last corner and I've got just enough to weave in so I'm just gonna kind of run my needle down the edge here because I don't have much to go back and forth with. It's about to fall out so I'm just gonna do a straight weave in right here. And so you've seen I've got that done. So it's starting to form its little basket. So I'm going to do that with the rest of the sides. So just cut a small length of yarn for each one and then we'll come back and start the next tier. All right, I finished. sewing my sides and I've woven in all my ends so it's quite a few ends you know because you have to do each side separately but this next section we should hopefully be able to limit our ends that we have to weave in. So now what we're going to do is we need to put these inside here so that this This can tilt back in. So to do that what we're going to do is start on one side first so just kind of place it where it's at so that you can see where it needs to go and then you're going to fold it down so it's right sides together again and it's kind of just sitting right on top of one of your most your side motifs and then we're going to start in the corner and head over here to this corner then you'll see how we're going to attach this side to this side after we get that done. So let's find our center stitch right here. So notice that you kind of almost have like a V looking on this side, but our V is actually on the inside over here. So make sure that you're putting it through the right spot. And then I'm going to go through my V on the opposite. And then just like we've been doing, we're just going to double whip stitch. Around and I've got a pretty long tail. So this will take a little bit of time for me because I'm trying to minimize my tails So we know how to work this so I'm gonna get over to here and then I'll come back and show you what to do Next okay, so I got over to here and add my corner But I wanted to show you this so that you can see how we can end up with a hole if we're not working the corner stitch twice Into each corner, so I need to do My corner into this corner I'm sorry very close up there this around here try not to block you okay so we have that corner done and then What we're going to do is we're going to fold it the other way so that we can now connect it. So you can see it's kind of folded over. That one that we just held it up against is folded like that. And then we're going to come this way and make sure that we go back into that corner. So here's that corner that I just did some stitches through. Going back into that corner and I want And I want to go into that corner stitch here. So I'm doing two more so that way I make sure that I'm not having a hole. I'm just trying to make sure I get that in the right spot. I stabbed myself. Good thing this isn't too sharp. And then one more. Then we can double check, because if there is a little hole, right now is the time to fix it. So if I open it up, now you can see that I'm all closed up. If there was any kind of little hole, you don't have to pull those out. Just do another little stitch and close that up, because you're not going to see it since everything is the same color. So that's what we're going to do. So when I get over to when I finish that one off, When I have that one connected, I'm going to grab my next one and start with that corner. So it's just going around, I'm making sure that all these corners are going to be connected to that corner stitch. I'll come over at that one just to make sure you understand how to connect the next one. So I'm going to go ahead and do this to the corner and then I'll come back. Okay, I just finished that corner. So here's my tail and I did two into the corner. Then I'm going to flip that open so I can start my next motif with the right sides facing together. And then I'm going to again work into this corner that I just finished attaching this through. So I'm going to get my corner stitch, go into that same corner, try not to stab myself again, and pull it. So you'll notice that once this one is done Keep on blocking you. The corners, we're going to have the sides to do again. So just another one to do. So we're going to do that same thing. We're going to attach one side and then we're going And then we're going to do that three more times. to attach the other side. So same thing over and over. Do both edges, do the next three, and then once we come back we'll just have the sides too. So go ahead and work on these, get these all attached, and then we'll meet back up to start the final sides. Okay, got all of the pieces attached. We're looking more like a container every second. So I still have my tail attached from going around because now I need to do those sides like we did down here. Same exact thing. I kept this attached so I can do this side as I go but we're going to do each of these sides just like we did down here. So pretty self-explanatory. Make sure you get up to the corners So you have a nice Edge organizer along the top a little stuffing in it just to pop it all out, but you'll flip it right side out and it'll be good to go. I hope you enjoyed making this, I'd love to see what you've done, I'm Deja Wood Knit and Crochet Ever After, thank you for watching!
