Triple Treble Crochet

Triple Treble Crochet 

1. Stitches taller than Double Trebles are all worked in the same way as Double Trebles, except that more wraps are wound around the hook before the stitch is begun and they require taller turning chains. Once you can work Triple Trebles easily, you will be able to work quadruple and quintuple Trebles without much effort. 

2. Triple Treble Crochet worked in rows looks the same on both sides of the piece. Notice how open and airy the crochet texture becomes as the basic stitches get taller.

3. Work the loops off the hook, with yarn round hook, two at a time as for Double Trebles. Remember to wrap the yarn 3 times around the hook before starting each stitch. 

4. Start the next and all following rows with 5 chains. 

5. Remember to work a stitch into the turning chain of the last stitch.
