Name That Stitch

A daily crochet guessing game by Yarn Over Hook

Can you name today’s crochet stitch?

Each day, we share a close-up crochet swatch and challenge you to identify the stitch before the reveal.

New puzzle drops every day. No pressure. Just stitches, curiosity, and a little friendly brain work. 🧶

How Name That Stitch Works

Every day, a new crochet puzzle goes live.

Here’s how to play:

  • Use the hints if you need a little help  

  • Submit your best guess (coming soon) — the answer is revealed the next day

  • Come back daily to build your streak and sharpen your crochet knowledge

There’s no leaderboard and no pressure.  Just a fun escape from the day to day.
