Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make the Little Shells Stitch!
First, with any project you'll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this stitch.
For this tutorial you'll need to know how to make Chains (CH), I have a tutorial here! How to make the Single Crochet Stitch (SC), tutorial here! And how to make the Double Crochet Stitch (DC), tutorial here!
Starting from the beginning, make chains in the multiple of 4
❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈
Row 1: Make 1 DC into the 4th CH from your hook
*Skip 1 CH, make 1 SC into the next CH
Skip 1 CH, make 3 DC into the next CH
Repeat the steps above from * until you have 2 CHs left
Skip 1 CH, make 2 DC into the last CH to complete
Row 2: Make 1 CH
Make 1 SC into the 1st ST
*Skip 1 ST, make 3 DC into the next ST
(It should be a previous SC)
Skip 1 ST, make 1 SC into the next ST
(It should be the center DC of previous 3 DC)
Repeat the steps above from * until you have 1 ST + CHs left
Skip that last ST, make 1 SC into the top of those CHs to complete
Row 3: Make 3 CHs
Make 1 DC into the 1st ST
*Skip 1 ST, make 1 SC into the next ST
(It should be the center DC of previous 3 DC)
Skip 1 ST, make 3 DC into the next ST
(It should be a previous SC)
Repeat the steps above from * until you have 2 STs left
Skip 1 ST, make 2 DC into the last ST to complete
You would now alternate between Rows 2 & 3 for however long you want your project
This is what the Little Shells Stitch should look like when completed!
