How to: Tunisian Scallop Lace

     Because of all of the steps in this lace pattern, it seems complex at first, but after a while it does get a lot easier!

     To begin, chain a number divisible by five and add two. 
     Now, complete a forward and return pass [to learn this, see How to Tunisian Crochet (The Simple Stitch)].


     Crochet the next row in the simple stitch.


     Chain three.



     Yarn over and pull it through six stitches. Do this at the beginning of each pattern row.



     This next part you will repeat until there are two stitches left on your hook.

     Chain four.



     Yarn over, and pull it through six stitches.





     When you have two stitches left on your hook, Chain two.


     Yarn over, and pull it through the two stitches.





     When you do a forward pass, pick up the loops over each cluster and chain. You should get your original number of stitches.
     Crochet a row of the simple stitch between each row of the scallop pattern.

     After a few rows, your work will look like this!
