The Jackpot Stitch crochet pattern is easier than it looks as it is worked entirely in single crochet and half double crochet stitches!
At first glance, however, the design looks so much more complicated. The simplicity of this design is one of the great things about this pattern. The other great thing about it is that it is reversible. You can use it in a wide variety of projects. Although I work the pattern in only a solid colour here, it may be one that you want to try in multiple.
The Materials:
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. You could also work this pattern in two or more colours. I will also be working with a 5 mm (H/8) crochet hook. In the video tutorial below you will see me working with a Birchwood Crochet Hook by Rowan. 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 beautiful Subtle Lines Crochet Stitch.

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.
This pattern is written in American crochet terms.
To begin make a slip knot and make a foundation chain. For this stitch, you will need an odd number of stitches for your foundation chain.
Row One:
Sc in the 2nd ch from your hook, sc in each st across. Ch 2, turn.
Row Two:
2 hdc in the next st, *sk the next st, 2 hdc in the next st; Rpt from * across, hdc in the final st. Ch 2, turn.
Row Three:
Sk the 1st 3 hdc, hdc in the next sp between the 3rd and 4th sts, now working over the st just made hdc in the previous sp between the 1st 2 sts, *sk the next set of 2 hdc and hdc in the next sp between the 2 sets, now working over the st just made, hdc in the sp between the 2 previous sets of hdc (this will be in the same sp as the previous crossed hdc), rpt from * across to the final ch-2 sp, hdc in the final ch-2 sp, hdc in the sp between the 2 previous sets of hdc, hdc in the top of the turning ch. Ch 1, turn.
Row Four:
Sc in the 1st st, sc in each st across, sc in the top of the turning ch. Ch 2, turn.
And that’s it!
For the rest of the pattern, simply repeat rows 2-4 for the pattern. Fasten off, and weave in your ends.
Thank you. I think this would be a pretty stitch for a tank top or other crochet top. There is a good bit of this yarn and color in my stash from a sale.
