Notes

This stitch is worked in rows in this tutorial and it may be worked in one colour or many. I will be working this pattern in a single colour.

Instructions

To begin, make a slip knot and make a foundation chain. For this stitch pattern, you will need a foundation chain with a multiple of 2 stitches, plus 1.

For example, ch 25.

Row One:

Sc in the 2nd ch from your hook and in each st across. Ch 4 (Counts as a tr), turn.

Row Two:

Tr in the next st, *yo, insert hook under the top 2 front loops that you see about a third of the way down on the post of the previous tr st, yo and draw up a loop, yo and insert your hook under the to 2 front loops that you see a little further down on the post of the previous st, yo and draw up a loop, insert your hook into the next sc st, yo and draw up a loop (you will have 6 loops on your hook), yo and draw through 3 loops on your hook, [yo and then draw through 2 loops on your hook] twice, tr in the next st; Rpt from * across ending with a tr in the final st. Ch 1, turn.

Row Three:

Sc in the 1st st and in each st across, ending by working your final sc in the top of the turning ch. Ch 4 (Counts as a tr), turn.

And that’s it!

For the rest of the pattern simply repeat rows 2 and 3 for the pattern. Fasten off, weave in your ends.
