'Petranese' explained
“Petranese” is the Black Sheep Crochet way of writing overlay crochet patterns.
If you are not yet familiar with this system, you can download your free copy of the ‘Petranese’ explained – Basics with explanations, instructions and photo tutorials for some special stitches here (also included in the pattern purchase):

Video Tutorials
You can find all video tutorials for this and other released squares in my YouTube Channel for Black Sheep Crochet, where you can also subscribe for automatic notification when new videos are uploaded.
All videos are in “Germanised British English US crochet terms Petranese”.
This means I am using US crochet terminology within ‘Petranese’, British/Australian speech and grammar for instructions and narrations, ‘spiced’ and ‘enriched’ with germanised expressions due to not being a native English speaker.
NO VIDEO TUTORIAL MAY BE CREATED FROM THIS PATTERN – IN ANY LANGUAGE – WITHOUT THE DESIGNER’S WRITTEN PERMISSION!
The videos will apear below as soon as they have been uploaded. I am currently still recording and editing some of them but we are now only missing rows 50-60.
You can find the videos just before their according rounds.

What you will need
If you have made any of the other Wrapped in Jamie squares , you have an approximate idea of the amount you need for one square.
Claire is as big as four squares including the square border, so it will require approximately the same amount of yarn. Make sure you are rather on the generous site when calculating your yardage.
If this is your first Wrapped in Jamie design, you can get a general idea about yarn requirements here:
Wrapped in Jamie squares Yarn requirements
You will also need
Claire Part 1 (Rounds 1-20)
Claire Part 2 (Rounds 21 – 35)
- scissors
- darning needle to weave in ends
- stitch markers* (optional, but highly recommended, this could even be yarn scrap, a hair pin or a paperclip) – if you choose to use stitch markers, it will be good to have at least 4 different colours. And lots of them 😉
Reminder and Important Pattern Notes (some new for Part 3)
Skipping stitches
For each special stitch you make in front, behind, around or in the front loop of another stitch from a previous round, you must leave the stitch behind or in front of the special stitch unworked (skip 1 stitch) unless instructed otherwise. A reminder to skip those stitches will be written under the special stitches for each round, not within the pattern instructions. If more than one special stitch has been worked and therefore more than one stitch needs to be skipped, a reminder is included in the pattern instructions.
It is not necessary to skip a stitch when the special stitch is being worked over a stitch and therefore envelopes it, as it is for example the case with spike and split spike stitches, hdc-arounds or psc and psc-x.
While we skip a stitch behind a long front post stitch, a front post single crochet does not leave a lot of room for skipping (although technically we still skip at least the top loops of the stitch we fpsc around).
The main objective here is to avoid unnecessary increases, so please keep that in mind.
Ch1 and slip stitch
The ch1 at the beginning of the round does not count as a stitch and will be skipped when we slip stitch into the first stitch at the end of each round.
Keep the slip stitch that closes the round loose as it will replace the stitch below as the last stitch of the next round.
Stitch markers
The use of stitch markers* is optional and mainly intended to encourage and support less experienced crocheters. If finding free front loops is easy for you, you are likely to be quicker crocheting without stitch markers.
- ‘Optional’ stitch markers*placements are suggested for the adventurous beginner and may not be necessary for intermediate and advanced crocheters.
- ‘Suggested’ stitch markers* placements are considered beneficial or essential for correct and easy stitch placement for all crochet levels.
If you follow the suggested stitch markers* placements, take the stitch markers out of the stitch or front loop after the special stitches have been worked, unless instructed otherwise.
Picot Single Crochet
A psc-x is made when the next st is a special stitch where the stitch behind it is skipped. The nature of the psc requires some anchoring, which is achieved by making the variation psc-x. You can make a psc-x (picot single crochet variation) whenever the pattern calls for a regular psc, but not the other way around.
Stitch markers for
– Rose bud stitches
When working the rose bud, it is helpful to place a st marker in the third loop of the first of three sc in BLO you make to start the rose bud. It will make it easier and quicker to find the correct free FLO to ss into in order to close the st. Leave the st marker in place until you worked over the st in the next round, where you will be crocheting into this third loop or the two main loops of the st (your choice).
– Big Rose
After finishing the big rose, place a st marker in the third loop of the last st. You will be crocheting into this loop when working over the big rose in the next round.
– Spike sts and split Spike sts
When working a long forward Spst or spSp st, place a st marker in the next st you will work into; this will make it easier to find the correct st after you have finished the Spst or spSp st.
Special Corners
Each of the following corners has a set-up corner – the first corner:
– fpdc corner
In the set-up corner, a fptr is worked into the ch2 corner space 2 rounds below (=fptr-c).
In the next round, a fpdc is worked around the fptr in the corner (= fpdc-c).
In each following round with a fpdc corner, a fpdc-c is worked around the previous fpdc-c.
– twisted corner
Place a st marker in the top loops of the first sc on the next side. This will ensure that you find the first st to work into.
In the set-up corner, the first fpdc is worked around the first sc of the next side (= fpdc-sc1) and the second fpdc is worked around the last sc of the previous side. (= fpdc-sc2)
In the next round, the first fpdc is worked around the fpdc-sc2 of the corner in the previous round (=> is now the fpdc-dc1) and the second fpdc is worked – in front of the fpdc-dc1 just made – around the fpdc-sc1 of the same corner (=> is now the fpdc-dc2).
In each following round with a twisted corner, the new fpdc-dc1 is worked around the st that was the fpdc-2 of the previous round and the new fpdc-dc2 is worked around the st that was the fpdc-1 of the previous round of that same corner. You will most likely have to pull the previous fpdc-dc1 out from behind the fpdc you just made in order to be able to work around it properly. This is easiest done using your hook.
Special Stitches used in this pattern
Please note: The special stitches work well for crocheters/crochettes with a ‘normal’ or ‘tight’ tension. If your tension is loose, you will find that using, for example, tr instead of dtr will give you a cleaner and crisper stitch definition.
In contrast, if your tension is very tight, please give an extra yarn over when making long stitches.
Special stitches relevant for this pattern are outlined below and specified in more detail above each round.
fptr_corner – (sc, ch1, fptr-c, ch1, sc) into the ch2 corner space; work the fptr-c in front of the ch2 space 1 and 2 rounds below around the ch2 space 3 rounds below (see notes for special corners)
fpdc_corner – (sc, ch1, fpdc-c, ch1, sc) corner; work 1 sc in each ch1 space of the previous round; work the fpdc_c around the fptr-c or fpdc-c 1 round below (see notes for special corners)
First twisted corner – (fpdc, ch2, fpdc) into the ch2 corner space; work the first fpdc around the first sc of the next side 1 round below, ch2, work the next fpdc – in front of the previously made fpdc – around the last sc on the previous side 1 round below
(see notes for special corners)
Twisted corner – ((fpdc, ch2, fpdc) into the ch2 corner space; work the first fpdc around the fpdc on the next side 1 round below, ch2, work the next fpdc – in front of the previously made fpdc – around the fpdc on the previous side 1 round below
(see notes for special corners)
psc – picot single crochet – insert hook in next st, yo and pull through (2 loops on hook), ch3 (= pull yarn through only the last loop made, 3 times, keeping the first loop on the hook) (2 loops on hook), yo and pull through 2 loops, continue with the next st (keep the ch3/picot in the front)
Choose the option that is applicable to the split Spike stitch you are about to work:
When working a spSp into a normal st (sc): insert the hook between the vertical bars of the st you work into; the hook will appear below the 3rd loop on the WS
When working a spSp into another spSp: insert the hook between the elongated bars of the spSp you work into so that the hook still appears below the 3rd loop on the WS

If you want to take pretty pictures, you can block your square.
There are different ways to block a square, which I will write about in a different post.
You can go thrifty or luxurious with your blocking tools* or a mixture of both. Either way, your squares will most likely look straighter with an increased stitch definition when they have been blocked.
