How to Crochet the Modified Silt Stitch Photo Tutorial
The Modified Silt Stitch is an easy crochet stitch with a subtle texture that is worked over a two-row repeat.
I’m calling this the modified silt stitch because I added my own little twist to emphasize the texture.
As far as projects go, the possibilities for this crochet stitch are endless. It’s perfect for a baby blanket or even a chunky throw blanket.

Materials
- worsted weight yarn (I Love This Yarn in Key Lime)
- 5.5 mm hook
Abbreviations
- ch(s): chains
- Dc: double crochet
- Sc: single crochet
- BLO: back loop only
- St(s): stitch(es)
Notes
- 2-row repeat
- Chain multiple of 3
- Ch 3 counts as a dc
- Ch 1 does not count as a stitch
Instructions
Row 1: Dc in the 4th ch from your hook and in each ch across. Turn.
Row 2: Ch 1, (Sc, 2dc) in same st as ch 1. Skip 2 sts. * (Sc, 2dc) in the next st, skip 2 sts. Repeat from * across. Place 1 sc in top of ch 3. Turn.
This is where I added my twist. I love the little texture of that row 2 created and wanted to bring that out.
Row 3: Ch 3, working in BLO, dc in each stitch across. Turn.
And that’s it!
Just repeat rows 2 and 3 until your piece is the desired size.
This is mine after 7 rows. How about that texture! Love it.
