Materials Needed

• Yarn: DK weight yarn in a golden hue
• Hook: 4.0 mm crochet hook
• Gauge: 4 diamonds across and 4 diamonds tall in 10 cm

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Start by making a foundation chain that is a multiple of 10 plus 1. For example, if you want to make a piece that is 40 diamonds wide, your chain should be 401 stitches long.
2. Row 1:
   • In the 5th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc).
   • Next, *chain 5, skip the next 4 chains, and make a dc in the next chain; repeat from * across the row.
   • Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2:
   • Chain 5 (this counts as your first dc and a chain 2).
   • Now, *dc in the next dc, chain 5, skip the chain-5 space from the previous row, and dc in the next dc; repeat from * across the row.
   • End this row with a dc in the 3rd chain of your turning chain, then turn your work.
4. Row 3:
   • Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc).
   • Next, *chain 5, dc in the next dc, chain 2, and dc in the next dc; repeat from * across the row.
   • Finish this row with a dc in the 3rd chain of your turning chain, then turn your work.
5. Repeat Rows 2 and 3: Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your piece reaches the desired length. This will create the beautiful diamond lattice effect.
6. Finishing Touch: To give your project a neat finish, make a row of single crochet (sc) around the edges. This will help to stabilize the edges and add a polished look to your work.
