Peephole Chevron Crochet Stitch Tutorial

I love this gorgeous variation on the class chevron crochet stitch pattern. This is called the peephole chevron crochet stitch and I am excited to show you how to crochet it. It is a lacy version of the chevron and super easy. So, this is a great beginner chevron stitch pattern too. 

I ran across this stitch as I was looking for something a little more open and flowing than the traditional chevron. Once I started it, I just fell in love with the stitch. It is so easy, so it makes a great one to work while watching TV or relaxing after a long day. 

Techniques and Abbreviations Used:

• ch – chain
• dc – double crochet
• st(s) – stitch or stitches

Peephole Chevron Crochet Stitch Written Instructions:

Create a chain that is a multiple of 10 sts, plus 3 for your foundation chain

Row 1 – Skip 3 ch (this counts as 1 dc), work 1 dc in each of the next 4 ch, *skip 2 ch, work 1 dc in each of the next 4 ch, ch 2, work 1 dc in each of the next 4 ch; repeat from * to last 6 ch, then skip 2 ch, work 1 dc in each of the next 3 ch, and then work 2 dc in the last ch, and turn.

Row 2 – Ch 3 (counts as a dc), work 1 dc into the base of the ch 3 that you just worked, work 1 dc in each of the next 3 dc, *skip 2 dc, work 1 dc in each of the next 3 dc, then work [1 dc, ch 2, 1 dc] into the ch 2 space, work 1 dc into the next 3 dc; repeat from * to last 6 sts, skip 2 dc, work 1 dc into the next 3 dc, and work 2 dc into the 3rd ch of the ch3 from row 2, and turn.

Row 3 and up – Repeat row 2 

Peephole Chevron Crochet Stitch Video Tutorial:

This is broken into two videos so you can work with a shorter clip! The first video is the chain and row 1 and the second video is row 2. 

Helpful tips:

• Size up or down by keeping the beginning stitch count in mind -Multiples of 10 stitches, plus 3 for the foundation chain.
• Always end with 5 dc stitches (2 dc in the last) and start with a chain 3 and then 4 dc stitches (1 in same stitch as the ch 3).
  This will make sure that your pattern stays straight on the ends. 
• Pull your yarn a bit tighter when skipping the bottom two stitches to keep the peephole from getting too large.
• This is a great stitch to block to show off your work in a lighter weight yarn and for bulkier or more textured yarns, you can choose to block or not.
