Minimalist V-Stitch Ring Set Free Crochet Pattern

Introduction

This minimalist V-stitch ring set is a tiny, satisfying project for anyone who loves delicate accessories and quick finishes. Made from a fuzzy mohair-silk blend held double, the two rings have a soft halo and a subtle, textured look that feels quietly elegant. One ring is worked in dusty rose and one in grey, giving you a simple pair that works together or on its own. Each band is only 2.5 inches long and a quarter inch wide, so it slips on like a slim, lacy loop and feels almost weightless on the hand.

Materials Needed

• Yarn: Lace weight mohair silk blend (70% mohair, 30% silk), held double throughout. About 10 yards (9 m) dusty rose and 10 yards (9 m) grey.
• Hook: 2.5 mm (US B/1) crochet hook.
• Notions: Tapestry needle for whipstitching and weaving in ends, small sharp scissors, and a stitch marker if you like to mark the first stitch.
• Finished size: Band length 2.5 inches (6.35 cm), width 0.25 inch (0.64 cm); fits ring size 10–12 (US).

Abbreviations

• ch — chain: make a loop of yarn and pull it through the loop on your hook.
• dc — double crochet: yarn over, insert hook, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through two loops, yarn over and pull through the last two loops.
• v-st — v-stitch: work (dc, ch 1, dc) all into the same stitch or space, making a little "V" shape.
• sk — skip: miss the next stitch or chain without working into it.
• sp — space: the ch-1 gap inside a v-stitch or between stitches.
• sc — single crochet: insert hook, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both loops.
• sl st — slip stitch: insert hook, pull up a loop and pull it straight through the loop on your hook.
• rep — repeat: work the same instruction again.

Gauge

4 v-stitches and 4 rows = 1 inch (2.5 cm) in pattern. To check it, crochet a small swatch of the v-stitch pattern and measure a 1-inch section; if you have more stitches than 4, go up a hook size, and if you have fewer, go down.

Tips Before You Start

• Hold the mohair-silk double from a single ball by pulling one strand from the center and one from the outside, so both strands stay together as you work.
• Keep your tension light and even; mohair halo can hide stitches, so count your v-stitches at the end of every row.
• The ch-3 at the start of Row 2 counts as your first dc, so don't work into the same stitch again.
• Leave the full 6-inch tail after fastening off — you will need it to whipstitch the band closed.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Ring (make 2 — one in dusty rose, one in grey)

With yarn held double, ch 11.

Row 1: (v-st, ch 1, v-st) in 5th ch from hook (the skipped 4 ch count as first dc), *sk 2 ch, v-st in next ch; rep from * to last 2 ch, sk 1 ch, dc in last ch (4 v-st, 2 dc).

Row 2: Ch 3 (counts as first dc), turn, v-st in next ch-1 sp, *v-st in next ch-1 sp; rep from * across, dc in last dc (4 v-st, 2 dc).

Fasten off, leaving a 6-inch tail.

Assembly

Bring the short ends together to form a ring, aligning the stitches. With the tail, whipstitch the short ends together, catching each stitch. Weave in the ends securely.

Edging

With right side facing, join yarn with a sl st to any ch-1 sp, ch 1, sc in the same sp, then sc in each stitch and space around, join with a sl st to the first sc. Fasten off and weave in the ends.

Assembly and Finishing

Each band is closed by bringing its two short ends together and whipstitching them with the 6-inch tail, catching every stitch so the seam sits flat. Weave in all ends securely on the wrong side, then gently block each ring by misting lightly and shaping it into a neat loop; let it dry fully before wearing.

Pro Tips and Variations

• Make a stack in three or four colors and wear them together for a layered look.
• Swap the mohair-silk for a smooth lace-weight cotton if you prefer a crisper, less fuzzy finish.
• Add one more repeat of Row 2 for a slightly wider band, or work a single row for an even more delicate ring.
