Free Pattern – Chocolate Chip Cookie

Let’s make some cookies! The other day, I wanted some cookies for a photo prop, and there were no actual cookies in my house. So I decided to make some – chocolate chip of course. This is one kind of “baking” I can actually manage. Scroll down for a video link!

Chocolate Chip Cookies - A free crochet pattern on StitchesnScraps.com

I used some scraps of worsted weight yarn for my cookies, so the gauge, size and yardage listed in the pattern is for worsted weight yarn. You can make these cookies in any weight of yarn or thread you like, but the finished size and yardage will vary.

Add this to your Ravelry Queue

Materials:

  • Worsted weight yarn
    • 10-15 yards light brown (cookie color)
    • 1 yd dark brown (chocolate chip color)
  • Size H / 5 mm hook, or size needed to obtain gauge

Skill Level:

Easy – single crochet worked in the round with regular increases and decreases.

Size:

2-2.5 inches in diameter.

Gauge:

Exact gauge is not critical, but stitches should be fairly tight with no gaps showing.  Use cookie pattern as a gauge swatch. If your cookie comes out to a size and texture you like, your gauge is fine.

Abbreviations used:

(Pattern is written in US terms)

  • ch = chain
  • sc = single crochet
  • dec = invisible decrease (see special stitch)
  • st(s) = stitch(es)
  • rnd = round
  • RS = right side

Recommended Resources:

Special Stitch:

Invisible decrease (dec): Insert hook into front loop only of both of next 2 stitches, yarn over and draw up a loop, yarn over and draw through both loops on hook.

I learned this stitch recently from a video tutorial on Nicki’s Homemade Crafts. It’s an alternative to a single crochet 2 together (sc2tog) stitch. If you prefer, you can use the standard sc2tog instead.

Instructions:

Cookie:

Note: Pattern is worked in continuous rounds, without joining or turning. You may find it helpful to mark the first stitch of each round.

With lighter yarn, ch 2

Rnd 1 (RS): 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook. (6 sts)

Rnd 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12 sts)

Rnd 3: (2 sc in first st, sc in next st) 6 times. (18 sts)

Rnd 4: (2 sc in first st, sc in next 2 sts) 6 times. (24 sts)

Rnd 5: (2 sc in first st, sc in next 3 st) 6 times. (30 sts)

Rnd 6: (Dec, sc in next 3 sts) 6 times. (24 sts)

Pause here to attach darker yarn and sew in starting tail:

  • Pull your working loop up really big or secure it with a stitch marker so it doesn’t come undone.
  • Thread starting tail onto needle and sew in on wrong side of work. There is no need to trim the tail when you’re done, leave it long as a bit of “stuffing” for the cookie.

  • Thread darker yarn onto yarn needle, and sew a small tail in on the wrong side of your work to secure it. Again there is no need to trim the tail.
  • Bring your needle out to the right side, somewhere near the middle, and set it aside.
  • Put your working loop of lighter yarn back on your hook, and continue crocheting.

Rnd 7: (Dec, sc in next 2 sts) 6 times. (18 sts)

Rnd 8: (Dec, sc in next st) 6 times. (12 sts)

Rnd 9: Dec 6 times, fasten off. (6 sts)

Making sure all the other tails are tucked away inside the cookie, sew ending tail through the 6 sts from rnd 9, and pull tightly to close. Weave in ending tail and trim.

Chocolate Chips: 

Using yarn needle, sew small stitches with darker yarn in a random fashion. Work evenly over both sides of the cookie.

When finished, weave in tail, being careful not to let it show through on the front, and trim.

Just on the off chance this needs saying….please don’t try to eat your cookies. These are not edible. (They’re great for tossing though!)
