The Embossed Triangle Stitch pattern is a beautiful crochet pattern that would work wonderfully in projects like blankets and bags, possibly even a cardigan!
The thing I love most about this stitch design is how the triangles seem to be pushed up out of the fabric. This is where its embossed name came from!
The pattern as a whole is fairly easy to work. All you will need to know are single crochet stitches and front post double crochet stitches. And while it is a daily long repeat when it comes to the pattern, you will find that you catch on fairly easily to how the pattern is worked. You may not need to follow the written instructions too carefully by the time you get to the second row of triangles.
Materials for this Tutorial:
For this tutorial today I will be using a small amount of Pima Cotton Yarn by Lion Brand Yarn. It is a worsted weight yarn. The hook shown in the video below is a 5 mm birchwood crochet hook by Rowan Yarns. However you may use any hook and yarn combination you choose.
Thank you so much for stopping by! If you enjoy the tutorial below, be sure to also check out some of the many other crochet stitch tutorials on my site and pin this for later! You may wish to start with the Wheat Stitch | How to Crochet.
