The Ribbed Herringbone Stitch is a textured stitch that resembles a classic herringbone stitch but with a ridge that runs vertically through it.

The textured ridge not only gives the stitch more texture, but also a little more interest and stability. I really love its look and believe it would be a great candidate for crochet projects like tops and shawls.

Materials for this Tutorial:

For this tutorial today I will be using a small amount of cotton yarn in one colour. This yarn is a worsted weight yarn 100% cotton yarn called Pima Cotton by Lion Brand Yarn. I will also be using a 5 mm crochet hook. The hook you will see me using in the video tutorial below is a favourite  Birchwood Crochet Hook by Rowan Yarn.
