How to Crochet the Terrain Stitch Photo Tutorial
The Terrain Stitch crochet pattern is one with a lot of texture! It would work well in many different crochet projects, even big ones like blankets!
I’ve called this crochet stitch pattern the Terrain stitch due to its rugged appearance. It really does remind me of a rocky or rugged terrain.
The texture in this pattern, which is all to the front side, is quite easy to work. All you will need to know how to work are triple crochet, double crochet and single crochet stitches.
The final fabric is not completely solid, nor is it too dense. This means that you can use it to add texture to many different types of crochet projects!

Pattern Notes:
This stitch is worked in rows in this tutorial and it may be worked in one colour or many. I will be working this pattern in a solid colour.
To begin make a slip knot and make a foundation chain. For this stitch you will need a multiple of three stitches, plus one (3+1) for your foundation chain.
For example, ch 31.
Terrain Stitch Crochet Pattern:
Row One: Sc in the 2nd ch from your hook, sc in the next st, *ch 2, sk the next 2 sts, sc in the next st, rpt from * across, sc in the final st. Ch 3 (Counts as a dc), turn.
Row Two: Sk the next sc, *sk the next ch-2 sp, tr in the next sc, now working in behind the tr just made, 3 dc in the skipped ch-2 sp; Rpt from * across, dc in the final st. Ch 1, turn.
Row Three: Sc in the 1st dc, sc in the next sp between the 1st two dc-sts, *ch 2, sk the next 3 sts, sc in the next tr; Rpt from * across, sc in the top of the turning chain. Ch 3, turn.
And that’s it!
Repeat rows two and three for the pattern. Fasten off, weave in your ends.
