How to Crochet the Trellis Stitch
The Trellis Stitch is an elegant yet simple crochet stitch that creates a reversible texture. The stitch is perfect for creating a breezy summer scarf, a handy market bag, or even a miniature hammock for a doll!
In this tutorial, I walk you through the first three rows of the stitch. Once completed, you can continue by repeating rows 2 and 3 to extend your work. To begin the Trellis Stitch, start with a foundation chain that is a multiple of 4, plus an additional 7 chains.
