In this tutorial I'm going to show you how to make this gorgeous Lacy Ripple Stitch
you want to begin by creating your slip knot and you can use whichever method you prefer for this
go ahead and insert your crochet hook and for this stitch we're going to be doing a multiple
of 24 plus an additional three so that's yarn over pull through yarn over pull through yarn
over pull through that's three go ahead do a multiple of 24 until you get to your desired
width and then add another three to the end and then meet me back once you're ready so for my
foundation chain I've done two sets of 24 I'm now going to add the additional three chains one two
three this will allow for our turning chain and for row one we're going to start in the fourth
chain from the hook so not the one on the hook we have one two three and four these missed chains
will count as a stitch now in this fourth stitch this is where we're going to start we're actually
going to do a treble crochet two together remember I'm working in UK terms so in the US this is known
as a double crochet two together so we're going to yarn over go into that fourth chain from the hook
yarn over pull through you'll have three loops on your hook and yarn over pull through two
loops leaving two loops on the hook we're going to finish that stitch for now and yarn over go
into the next chain yarn over pull through you'll have four loops on the hook yarn over pull through
two and then you'll have three loops remaining you'll go yarn over and pull through all three
of those loops and that brings those two treble crochets together to form one stitch at the top
just here we then have a pattern repeat so you're going to come back to this point when you need to
repeat the pattern we're going to chain one miss a chain and then treble crochet into
the next chain four times so chain one miss a chain treble crochet into the next chain
so that's once chain one miss a chain treble crochet into the next chain
twice chain one miss a chain treble crochet into the next
three times chain one miss a chain treble crochet and that is the fourth time
we're now going to chain one miss a chain and then
we're going to work five trebles all into this same chain so one two three
four and five remember these are UK trebles in the US this is known as a double crochet
we're then going to do chain one skip a chain and treble four times again so we're
going to chain one miss a chain and treble that's one chain one miss a chain treble
that's two chain one miss a chain treble
that's three chain one miss a chain treble
and that's four we're going to chain one miss a chain and then we're going to treble crochet
five stitches together over these next five chains so it's yarn over remember we've already
skipped this chain go into that first chain yarn over pull through yarn over pull through
two don't finish off that stitch yarn over into the next chain yarn over pull through
yarn over pull through two that's the second yarn over into the next chain
yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two that's three stitches so far yarn over into the
next chain yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two that's four and here's our final one
into that next stitch yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two and then you're going to
yarn over pull through all of those loops on the hook and that is our treble crochet five together
so that is the end of the pattern repeat and you can see here we have the peak of our ripple and
then the the trough of our ripple you're going to repeat this all the way across so from that very
spot where I said this is your pattern repeat so you're going to continue to repeat that all the
way until you get to the end of your chain now the very last set is going to be slightly different
so we'll start working up here and then back down so you'll work that repeat all the way across
until your very last treble five together we won't be doing this very last one so go ahead pause the
video work your way across just omitting this very last treble five together you will be left after
you've skipped a chain you'll be left with three chains at the end so go ahead pause the video work
that pattern repeat and then meet me back once you're ready so I'm now at the end of my chain
I've chained one and then I would skip a stitch omitting this final treble crochet five together
and so that leaves me with my three chains we're going to treble crochet three together over these
three chains so yarn over into that next stitch yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two
yarn over into the next chain yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two and then
finally yarn over into that last chain yarn over pull through and then yarn over pull through two
we're going to yarn over pull through all of those remaining loops on the hook
we're now going to turn our work for row two we're going to chain one which will not count as a
stitch and this row is really easy we're going to do one double crochet which is single crochet in
the US into each stitch and each chain one space all the way across so this is the top of my first
stitch just here this is like the treble three together so I'll go into the top of that stitch
and do a double crochet into the chain one space double crochet into the top of the next stitch
into the chain space and continue to work this all the way across
so go ahead and pause the video work your double crochets in each stitch and each chain space all
the way across your last stitch looks a little bit different we need to be mindful that we have a
treble crochet two together here and a chain three which is the turning chain so we want to look at
the top of these chain twos and then work into the top of that stitch just there so make sure that
you are finishing in that last stitch pause the video and then meet me back once you're ready okay
so I've just worked my way all the way across I just wanted to reiterate where this last stitch is
going so we have our treble crochet two together and our chain three just here we want to turn
the work so that we can see that very last stitch and that's where we're working into we don't want
to continue and work into this turning chain just here so now we're going to turn the work
and we're going to work on row three row three is going to begin with a chain three which is
going to count as a stitch we're not going to work into this first stitch we're going
to work into the next two stitches with a treble crochet two together so that's yarn over miss that
first stitch go into the next stitch yarn over pull through and then yarn over pull through
two yarn over into the next stitch yarn over pull through and yarn over pull through two and then
yarn over pull through all three loops on the hook we then have our pattern repeat again which is
exactly the same as before but I will demonstrate it again because it will look slightly different
for this round but this is where your pattern repeat is going to start and where you can rewind
to if you need to so we're going to chain one miss a stitch and treble crochet into the next stitch
we'll do this four times in total so that's one chain one miss a stitch treble crochet
chain one miss a stitch treble crochet
so that's three times and then chain one miss a stitch and treble crochet that's four times
we're then going to chain one miss a stitch and if this is aligning correctly your next stitch
should be just above this central treble crochet just here so we've chained one missed a stitch
and then we're going to do five treble crochets into that next stitch one two
three four and five we're then going to chain one miss a stitch and treble crochet
that's the first of our four chain one miss a stitch treble crochet
chain one miss a stitch treble crochet this is our third
and then chain one miss a stitch and treble crochet that is our fourth
we're then going to chain one miss a stitch and then treble crochet five stitches together
so it's yarn over remember we've missed this stitch into that next stitch yarn over pull
through yarn over pull through two yarn over insert into the next stitch yarn over pull
through yarn over pull through two yarn over insert yarn over pull through yarn over pull
through two and again yarn over insert yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two we've
done four stitches so far one two three four and then it's yarn over insert yarn over pull through
yarn over pull through two and then yarn over pull through all through loops on the hook so you're
going to repeat that pattern repeat all the way to the end again and you will end up with three
stitches remaining and I'll meet you back to show you how to finish off this row so pause the video
and then meet me back once you're ready okay so we're now at the end of this row just done a chain
one and missed a stitch leaving three stitches we're going to treble crochet three together so
yarn over insert yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two yarn over insert yarn over pull
through yarn over pull through two and then this final stitch here yarn over insert yarn over pull
through yarn over pull through two and then yarn over pull through all three loops on the hook this
is what the work is now looking like obviously if you have more you'll have more peaks and troughs
but we get a straight edge here and then we also have our peaks and our troughs which will continue
and the more you build this the more stability you'll get in the work as well so from this
point you're going to repeat rows two to three and once you continue to do that it looks like
this so then once you're done you can go ahead and block this if you want to just to make these
peaks and troughs a little bit more pointy or just however you want to do it basically but it looks
absolutely stunning and if you like this ripple stitch you may also like this ripple stitch too
