Crochet Video Tutorial: Crochet Slant Stitch Pattern

       

Crochet Slant Stitch Pattern with Video

Written Pattern Below

This is a great Crochet stitch pattern. It uses basic stitches but it has a twist. What you're doing in general is skipping a chain /stitch then doing 1DC in each of the next 3 chains/stitches then doing a DC in the skipped stitch.

Row 1: Do 1sc in the 2nd chain and in each chain across the row. (16 single crochets.)

Row 2: Ch3, 1dc in next stitch, *skip 1 st, Do 1dc in each of the next 3 stitches, YO insert hook into the skipped st and pull up a loop even with the hook (YO draw through 2 loops)x2 *
