Hype Holes Crochet Stitch Pattern Tutorial

Hey everyone, it's Deja with KnitAndCrochetEverAfter.com, and today we're doing the Hype Holes stitch pattern, so download the pattern below, we'll get started, and I'll talk more about this after we're done. Okay, so to get started, we're going to do a multiple of 3 plus 2, so depending on how wide you want it, times it by 3, and then add 2 more stitches for the first row. So I've got a chain of 11 here. And we're going to start off with a special stitch called a Y stitch. And it's going to be in the sixth chain from our hook. So this is going to create kind of that little post that we see in the finished product. So we're going to go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. I'm going to mark that. And the Y stitch is going to be a treble crochet. I'm going to yarn over twice, do my treble. And then, I'm going to chain 1. And double crochet in the center of my treble. So I'm going to yarn over once, and I'm actually going to work into the stitch and not around it, because I want it to be uniform. So I'll explain that better at the end, when you see the whole thing. But go in between so you'll kind of see two loops that come across. From the yarn overs, we're going to go between those two loops and just catch in the middle and do a regular double crochet. Then we're going to skip the next two chains, one, two, and we're going to do the same thing again. So this is our stitch pattern repeat. So we're going to treble in that third chain, we're going to chain one, and then double crochet in that center Of the trouble again. And you keep repeating that across until you get to the very last chain because you're going to skip two again and you end up with one chain at the very end. And in that chain you're just going to do a treble crochet. Then we're ready for row two. Okay so for row two this is our repeating row. This is what we're going to do for the rest of the entire pattern. So it's just a one row We're going to chain 4, and that's going to count as a treble crochet. And then we're going to do our Y-stitch, but we're going to do it in between our last Y-stitch in that chain one space. So this time we're actually going to work around the stitch and not into it. So I'm going to do a treble crochet, a chain one, and then do a double crochet in the center. And then same thing, I'm going to go to the next chain one space, not going to do anything in between my Y-stitches. And do another treble, chain one, and double. And then again we're going to get to that last stitch and it's just going to be a treble again. Just make sure you're skipping that last Y stitch piece and you're working into the turning chain. And that's really all there is to it. Slack here, we'll do one more row, so we'll chain four, very easy, treble in that chain one, one, double in the treble, double treble in the chain one, chain one, and double. And then that last stitch. Always trying to get black and then we're gonna go treble right in the top of that turning chain four. So very quick to work up, gives you kind of that square look. So I'm gonna pull my finished one over. So what I meant about Working into the actual treble and not going around it, as you can see they're all very uniform across and they hold their place. So if I went around the chain, they would slip and slide a little just from being moved around. You can see if I pull it every which way, it still stays uniform. So if you want that uniform look, work into The treble, if you don't really care or you want it to have kind of the slip and slide effect, then work around the treble. But this is a really simple pattern. You can easily add a border, any kind of border, single crochet, double, even treble. If you're going to do a border on the side, stick with treble crochets. So just do extra chains on your foundation chain and then treble. All the way on your beginning chain and your ending stitch. So you could even do like a linked treble, which I have tutorials for, which would give it a very solid border along the edge. This is without blocking, so you can see that it holds its shape very well. The sides don't look great, so I would want to stick a border, but you could also do a border after the fact and go all the way around. So lots of stuff that you can do with this. So this is the Hype Hole Stitch Pattern. I'm Deja with KnitandCrochetEverAfter.com and thank you for watching.
