You will need to start your work by tying a slipknot onto the hook. See the “Tips” section for more detail. Also consult the “Tips” section for instructions on forming a chain stitch.
Turn the piece over when you reach the end of the row. If you do not know how to work a single crochet, check the “Tips” section for instructions.
This set of chain stitches will count as both a half double crochet and an additional set of two chain stitches.
Repeat this process two more times, moving onto the next stitch in the previous row each time. When finished, you should have seven loops on your hook. This step starts the actual triangle stitch.
When finished, you will only have one loop on your hook. This step completes the actual triangle stitch.
This will create a gap in between your individual triangle stitches.
Yarn over the tip of the hook, then insert the hook through the last stitch you worked your previous triangle stitch into. Yarn over the hook from the back and pull the yarn back to the front of the stitch. Yarn over the hook, insert it into the next stitch, and catch the yarn from the back before pulling it to the front. Repeat once more with the following stitch. Once seven loops have been gathered on your hook, yarn over the hook and pull the yarn through all seven loops. This series of moves completes your second triangle stitch.
Turn the work over at the end of this row. Read more about half double crochets in the “Tips” section.
Single crochet once in the first stitch. Single crochet once in the next “chain one” space from the previous row. Single crochet twice into each of the “chain two” spaces from the previous row. Single crochet once into the second loop of your original turning chain from the previous row. Turn the work when finished with this row.
Cut the yarn. Pull the tail through the loop on your hook and tighten it as much as possible to tie off the work. Weave the excess tail into the back of your work to hide it from sight.

These six stitches will count as your first double crochet , as well as the first corner of your first triangle round.
Check the “Tips” section if you need further detail on working double crochets.
This step completes the first triangle round. You can end the triangle here, or you can keep working additional rounds to expand it outward.
As before, these chains will act as the first double crochet and the first corner of this round.
This chain serves as both the first double crochet and the first corner of your third round.
In the first corner space, work three double crochets, then chain once. In each corner space, double crochet three times, chain three times, then double crochet another three times. Chain one at the end of the set. In each non-corner gap, double crochet three times, then chain once. When you reach the first corner space of this round, double crochet twice into the space. Join this set with the third chain of your six-stitch chain using a slip stitch.
Cut the yarn, leaving a 2 to 3 inch (5 to 7. 6 cm) tail. To knot off the triangle, pull this tail through the loop on your hook as tight as possible. You can weave the remainder of the excess tail into the back of the triangle to hide it.
