The Diagonal Triple Stitch is a neat looking textured fabric. It is deceiving in that the diagonal texture looks like popcorns or bobbles, but it’s so much easier!
A little while back I posted a tutorial on my YouTube channel for a Faux Popcorn Stitch. This stitch is worked in a similar way, but lines the faux popcorn stitches up on the diagonal instead of staggering them. The result is an easy way of making a fabric look like it has cables.

I’m not going to lie, this pattern has quite a few steps or rows before you reach the repeat in the pattern, but the wait is worth it! I love the texture in this stitch and can’t wait to see how you use it.
Materials for this Tutorial:
For this tutorial today I will be using a small amount of Pima Cotton Yarn by Lion Brand Yarn in a single colour. 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, even experiment with colour!
