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
- Ch a multiple of 6 (e.g. 6, 12, 18… based on how many base triangles you want).
- 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.
- Continue across the chain with more triangles (repeat steps for each triangle).
🔷 2. Row 2 – First Row of Squares
- Attach new color to the side of the triangle.
- Ch 1, work 1 sc into each row-end of triangle (6 sc).
- Turn and work back and forth in rows of sc, connecting to adjacent triangles as you go.
- You’ll form square blocks on top of the triangles.
🔷 3. Middle Rows – Alternating Squares
- From the previous row’s squares, attach yarn in a corner.
- Work 6 sc, turn, and repeat rows to form squares, decreasing/joining on edges to link them together.
- Alternate color rows to form the checkerboard effect.
🔷 4. Final Row – Closing Triangles
- Similar to the base triangles, but decrease to taper the edge.
- 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.
