Step 4: Third Row
Pull up 4 chains to begin the row.
Create a double post crochet on the third stitch from the previous row:
Wrap the yarn around the hook twice, insert it into the selected post, and pull the yarn through.
Repeat this process 4 times on the same post.
Combine the stitches to form a double post crochet.
Continue alternating posts and spaces as needed.
Step 5: Popcorn Row
After completing a series of double posts, switch to creating popcorn stitches:
Work 6 double crochets in the same space.
Combine all the stitches into a single stitch to form a popcorn.
Secure the popcorn with a chain stitch.
Step 6: Final Rows
Alternate between rows of popcorn stitches and double post stitches.
At the end of each row, secure the pattern with a slip stitch and pull up a few chains to begin the new row.
Tips
For a cleaner finish, maintain consistent yarn tension throughout the project.
Experiment with different colors to add variety and creativity to your design.
Final Result
Once completed, you’ll have a rich texture with raised and lowered elements, including popcorn and double post stitches. This pattern is perfect for a variety of creative projects!
