Trinity Crochet Stitch Photo Tutorial

Today’s new crochet stitch is the Trinity Stitch. I love how it looks like little stars!
This crochet stitch is made up of clusters of single crochets that start in the same stitch the previous stitch ended.
I used a worsted weight yarn and a 6mm hook. It created a fabric that was pretty dense. Which makes it a great option for homewares and bags!
If you are working with worsted weight yarn and want a looser weave for a hat, scarf or blanket I would recommend using a 6.5 or even and 8mm hook.
