PATTERN:

Note: When working with any stitch pattern, make sure to use the recommended hook size from the yarn label you are using to achieve the best results.

Begin by creating a chain with a multiple of 6 plus 4 stitches.

For a sample swatch, create a chain of 22 stitches.

Row 1 (Wrong Side): Double crochet (dc) in the 4th chain from the hook, chain 2, skip the next 2 chains, work 2 dc in the next chain, repeat from * to * across, then turn.

Row 2: Chain 3 (counts as the first dc), while keeping the right side facing you, turn the work so that the first dc is oriented sideways facing you, while the rest of the work faces away from you. Work 4 dc around the post of the first dc, working from top to bottom. Chain 1, and again keeping the right side facing, turn the work so that the next dc is sideways facing you. Half of the scale just made should be facing away from you. Work 5 dc around the next dc, working from bottom to top (completing one full scale). Chain 1, fold the scale down, now with the right side of the work facing you, skip the next set of 2 dc, then work 5 dc from top to bottom around the post of the first dc of the next set of 2 dc, chain 1, and turn the work while keeping the right side facing. Work 5 dc from bottom to top around the post of the next dc. Repeat from * to * across the row.

Note: Placing a stitch marker in the last stitch of the row before working the last scale can be helpful to locate the last stitch.

Turn the work with the wrong side facing, and slip stitch in the center of the last scale made to secure it. Row 3: Chain 3 (counts as the first dc) in the same space where you just slip stitched to secure the scale. Dc in the same space at the center of the scale. Chain 2, work 2 dc between the next 2 dc through the center of the stitches towards the front of the work, where the scales are joined with a chain-1 space. Make sure to work your stitches around the chain-1 space as well as between the 2 dc to secure the scales. Chain 2, work 2 dc in the center of the next scale. Repeat from * to * across the row, and then turn.

Row 4: Chain 1, skip the first set of 2 dc. Work 5 dc around the post of the first dc of the next set of 2 dc, working from top to bottom. Chain 1. With the right side facing, turn the work so that the hook inserts from the side of the next dc and points towards the center of the just-worked scale. Work 5 dc from bottom to top around the next dc, chain 1, then skip the next set of 2 dc. Repeat from * to * across the row, ending with a slip stitch between the last 2 dc. Turn.

Row 5: Chain 3 (counts as the first dc), dc in the same space between the first 2 dc. Chain 2, work 2 dc in the center of the next scale, chain 2, work 2 dc between the next 2 dc through the stitches to the front of the work where the scales are joined by a chain-1 space. Ensure that your stitches go around the chain-1 space as well as between the 2 dc to secure the scales. Chain 2, work 2 dc in the center of the next scale. Repeat from * to * across the row, ending with 2 dc between the last 2 dc. Turn.

Row 6: Repeat Row 2.

Continue to repeat Rows 3-6 to create the pattern, ending the pattern with Row 6.
