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), tutorial here! How to make the Single Crochet Stitch (SC), I have a tutorial here! And how to make the Double Crochet Stitch (DC), tutorial here!
To start the Block Stitch: CH multiples of 3+ 1

The Block Stitch is made from 2 rows alternating. So I will show the first row first which is made from CHs and SC STs. This first row sets up the Block Stitches to be made in the next row. Start with a CH 1

Work 1 SC into the first ST/Space. This one above is worked in between previous DC STs

CH 3 and Skip over the Block Stitch underneath

Work a SC into the next ST/Space
You would then repeat this for the rest of the row

You would start your next row, or Block Stitch row with a CH 3

You would then work 3 DC (1 Block Stitch) into the first opening made from the previous CH 3, from the last row

CH 1, Skip over the SC from the last row

You would then start repeating this. Make 3 SC in any open space you come across, CH 1, Skip over any SC, you would end this row with 1 DC in the last ST/Space
