Great! The image you provided shows a crocheted Entrelac stitch pattern, which mimics a woven or basket-like effect using small interconnected blocks. It’s often worked using Tunisian crochet, but can also be done with regular crochet techniques.

🪢 Entrelac Crochet Step-by-Step Tutorial

🔷 1. Foundation Row – Base Triangles

1. Ch a multiple of 6 (e.g. 6, 12, 18… based on how many base triangles you want).
2. Row 1 (First Triangle):
   • Work 6 sc back across the chain.
   • Turn, ch 1, sc in 5, turn.
   • Repeat decreasing one stitch until you have 1 sc.
   • Fasten off.
3. Continue across the chain with more triangles (repeat steps for each triangle).

🔷 2. Row 2 – First Row of Squares

1. Attach new color to the side of the triangle.
2. Ch 1, work 1 sc into each row-end of triangle (6 sc).
3. Turn and work back and forth in rows of sc, connecting to adjacent triangles as you go.
4. You’ll form square blocks on top of the triangles.

🔷 3. Middle Rows – Alternating Squares

1. From the previous row’s squares, attach yarn in a corner.
2. Work 6 sc, turn, and repeat rows to form squares, decreasing/joining on edges to link them together.
3. Alternate color rows to form the checkerboard effect.

🔷 4. Final Row – Closing Triangles

1. Similar to the base triangles, but decrease to taper the edge.
2. Attach yarn and shape triangle on top of last row of squares.

🎯 Tips:

• Use stitch markers to track where new squares begin.
• Keep stitches tight for neat joins.
• Entrelac can be done in Tunisian crochet too – this version uses regular sc or dc.
