How To: Crochet The Side Saddle Stitch – Easy Tutorial
A couple of weeks ago Lion Brand sent me a large box filled to the brim with colourful yarns and wools, the best present for any avid crocheter! One of the skeins of yarn immediately caught my eye, with it’s luscious colour and soft cotton. Within moments I had my pretty wooden crochet hooks out and I was fiddling around with multiple different crochet stitches.
The Side Saddle Stitch was one of these stitches, as the design has such a distinctive texture to it, making cotton yarn the perfect fit. I only recently learned about this stitch myself, but I was excited to share it with you all as I’m sure you’ll be just as eager to learn this stitch so you can use it when crocheting lovely scarves and unique afghans!
If you’re eager to learn how to crochet the “Side Saddle Stitch“, this helpful video tutorial will guide you through all the necessary steps (in an easy to follow speed) as you continue on your ever-growing crochet journey!
Are there any other crochet stitches or techniques you’d love to learn?

It is easier for me to learn new stitches with written instructions. Why don't you try giving them. Would be much appreciated.
Agree. I'd much rather have written instructions but sometimes the tutorials come in handy to go back to look at. Between the two, learning the new stitches aren't as hard.
Written instructions would be helpful for me with the side saddle stitch. It’s the ends that are giving me trouble.
How about a tutorial on the puff ladder stitch?
This was in one of my patterns but the author didn't include how to do it. (I really dislike lazy authors! It was deliberate–directions said to go online and find it myself; no link.)
Here is a site you may wish to follow. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=puff+ladder+stitch&view=detail&mid=CB63AB3131A1B65802DDCB63AB3131A1B65802DD&FORM=VIRE. Hopefully this helps..
I also need written instructions. I'll have to save this video and then play and pause and write until I have it down on paper. I really really want this pattern so I'll take the extra time to get it written down myself.

If you do a Google search, you will find the written instructions on other websites. 🙂
beautiful! Thank you!
Hello,
This is just lovely and the tutorial very helpful, thank you. I'm unable to find the written instruction for some reason though, even when I click on the instruction to click here for them. Please help? Thank you.
This is a beautiful pattern. I love it. Thanks so much.
Do you have the written instructions? I don't have the ability to watch YouTube videos at home, and we're not allowed to watch them here at work. I think the stitch is beautiful, but I need written instructions.
Thank you so much.

Where can I find the written instructions for this pattern?
Unlike your other comment I am a visual learner. Keep the videos coming. I can jump right in. Thank you so much.
I also need written instructions and do so much better with them. I want to make an afghan (about) 40″ x 55″ (about) but don’t know how to figure the number to chain and how much 4 ply worsted to use.
Thank you for sharing the tutorial! The video helps me learn it quicker 🙂

I love ur crochet tutorial
Love this. I really appreciated how easy you made this tutorial
Love your tutorials! Thank you so much for posting them.
I prefer written directions for patterns. It’s too hard to try to write down the instructions from the tutorial. As others have commented, written instructions are much easier to follow. Please make written instructions. I would love to make this pattern.
