Challenging yourself is a great way to learn and keep yourself motivated!

After you learn the basic crochet stitches, you can form all kinds of decorative stitch patterns. The Herringbone Crochet Stitch is a fun way to add texture to your work.

This crochet stitch would be great for cowls, scarfs, blankets and more!

The amazing chevron effect is achieved by working single crochet stitches you know in a unique way.

I will say that at first, the herringbone crochet stitch requires both concentration and perseverance but if you practice with small swatches until you are ready to tackle your first pattern, then you will find the process much easier.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to crochet herringbone stitch in rows back and forth. It’s a two row repeat so it’s fairly easy to memorize once you’re a few rows in.
