The Falling Brick Stitch is a very easy crochet stitch that works up very quickly!
The stitch pattern is quite open and lacy. It uses basic crochet stitches such as the triple/treble stitch and the chain stitch. While I am not sure that I would make an entire blanket out of this stitch, it would make a great stitch for a more lacy project such as a shawl or a lacy top. I look forward to seeing 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 (H/8) birchwood crochet hook by Rowan Yarns. However you may use any hook and yarn combination you choose.

Notes:
This stitch is worked in rows in this tutorial.
To begin, make a slip knot and then chain your desired number of chains. For this stitch pattern you will need a multiple of ten stitches plus six stitches for your foundation chain (multiples of 10+6).
For example, ch 36.
Row One:
Tr in the 5th ch from your hook, tr in each of the next 4 sts, *sk the next 4 chs, tr in the next st, ch 4, tr in each of the next 5 sts; rpt from * across to the final st, tr in the final st. Ch 4, turn.
Row Two:
*Work 5 tr in the next ch-4 sp, sk the next 5 tr sts, tr in the next tr, ch 4; Rpt from * across, tr in the top of the starting ch-4. Ch 4, turn.
And that’s it!
Repeat row two for the pattern. Fasten off, weave in your ends.
