This week we are learning to crochet the DC Cluster. Join us for our Totally Textured Tuesday series, where you’ll learn a new crochet stitch every week!
BQUEEN COLLECTION #TOTALLYTEXTUREDTUESDAY
Hi again! Makenzie from BQueen Collection sharing another Totally Textured Tuesday stitch for our 12 week series. We are already on Week 8, but here is what we have done so far:
Week 1: Single Crochet Back Loop Only (sc BLO)
Week 2: Blanket Stitch
Week 3: Even Moss Stitch
Week 4: Mini Basket Weave
Week 5: Bar Stitch
Week 6: Even Berry Stitch
Week 7: HDC FL + BL
WEEK 8: Crochet DC CLUSTER
It’s time for the Double Crochet Cluster! If you are thinking that this looks similar to the Even Berry Stitch of Week 6, you’re right but it is not exactly the same! A little less bobble, completely reversable, slightly different technique – yet just as lofty. PLUS, this stitch is not technically an “even” stitch.
We want to see it! If you try any of the stitches with us during the series, tag us @WeCrochetOfficial and @BQueenCollection AND use #totallytexturedtuesday so we can share!

Hi! I’m Makenzie from BQueen Collection and my husband I make custom wood crochet hooks while I also dabble in pattern design. We live in eastern Colorado, enjoy fishing and the outdoors, and have three young boys who keep us very busy (plus eight chickens because we eat soooo many eggs). We’d love to connect – follow us on Instagram @bqueencollection and see what we’re up to!
