How to Crochet a Pancake

Pancake Crochet Pattern by: Madison – Schutt Farms

Pancake Crochet Pattern Title Page

Play kitchen food is one of my favorite categories for crochet projects. First, they are small, beginner friendly projects. Therefore, you can create many projects in a short amount of time. Second, they are win, win all around for the family.  I get to practice mindfulness and receive the self-help benefits that come with crocheting, and my kids get one-of-a-kind handmade toy from mom, which they tend to appreciate more than handmade clothes. 

This was one of my first creations for Teddy’s Kitchen;  I wanted to start simple – and what is easier than a quick circle? 

MATERIALS

Crochet Hook size G, 4.00 mm., scissors, and tapestry needle (to weave in ends, if preferred).

If you’re new to crochet, you can get started building your tools with this set of hooks from Amazon. You get the most product for your money. If you already have a lot of hooks, just not in size G yet, you can order just this hook. I would suggest in investing in an ergonomic hook with a larger handle. Almost all of my food creations use this size hook, so it’s a worth it upgrade.

Medium, Size 4 Yarn

Here are the brand and colors I used, but similar colors in other size 4 yarn will yield similar results.

Brand: I love this cotton (sold at Hobby Lobby). Colors #: 80 Antique Gold, 48 Taupe Optional Colors #: 326 Curry (Yellow)

STITCHES / ABBREVIATIONS

Chain (CH): Yarn over and pull a loop back through

Slip Stitch (SS): Insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Single Crochet (SC): Insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through the stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Double Crochet (DC): Yarn over, insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through the stitch, yarn over and pull through two loops, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.

Increase (INC DC): Double crochet twice in the same stitch. This would increase the stitch count by 1 each time completed.  

Back Loop Only (LO): Referring to where to insert the hook for the next stitch. Opposed to inserting the hook into the stitch, insert the hook from the top in the back loop only.

Next, take both pancake pieces, and stack right sides facing out. 

Assembly: Fifth Row: Using the lighter color yarn, 48 Taupe, attach to pancake and slip stitch around the outsides of the pancakes through the BLO around to sew pancake shut.

Note:  If you want to create a stiff pancake that doesn’t bend/fold, consider adding a piece of cardboard between the pancake slices prior to joining.

If you want to create the butter square on top of the pancake – add these steps.
