Tunisian Reverse Stitch - TRS

Ad Free PDF downlaod:

Ch : chain FR: Foundation Row F: forward R: Return FP :Forward Pass RP: Return Pass Yo: yarn over TSS : Tunisian Simple Stitch TRS: Tunisian Reverse Stitch

Yarn: C1: Color 1 C2: Color 2 3: Color 3

TSS: Insert hook through the front vertical bar of a stitch pull up a loop

TRS: Insert hook through the back vertical bar of a stitch pull up a loop

Note: I have used Ganga Alisha : chain 35 { odd multiples of 5 +2}

If you are using any other yarn, other than that mentioned here, you will hacve to use 2 sizes bigger hook than recommended and the stitich count to suit the length

You will be required to test the gauge before working on the project

Yarn: 

Vardhman Zaima/ Ganga Alisha  : chain 37

Hook : 8.00mm

1.  With C1, Chain the number of stitches required to measure 11.5”

Foundation Row (The first Forward and Return Pass will create the foundation Row)

Forward Pass: Stick the hook into the back bump of second chain from the hook and pull up a loop. Continue across the chain, pulling up a loop in each back bump, leaving all loops on the hook.

At the end of the chain, you will have the same number of loops on the hook as chains that you started with.

Reverse pass:  Yarn over and pull through one loop {Crochet one extra chain (return chain ) in the last stitch on Hook }

*Yarn over again and pull through 2 loops *

Continue   * * till you have one loop left on the hook 

The remaining loop on the hook is the right edge stitch

To start the next Forward Row always skip the front bar of the edge stitch and begin with the second bar mentioned  (= first stitch) to pull up a loop)

Row 1:

FP:  TRS: Insert hook through the back vertical bar of second stitch pull up a loop

Row 1:  Insert hook through the back vertical bar of each of next 5 stitches, one at a time leaving the edge stitch, pulling up loops and retaining them on the hook 

Work one *TSS in next 5 Stitches, 1 TRS in each of next 5 stitches* . 

Repeat * * till the end

In the last stitch on the left, insert hook through both front and back bar of end stitch, pull up a loop and chain 1

RP: Yo, pull through 2 loops , Yo pull through 2 till 1 loop is left on the hook

R 2 – R 5 : Repeat Row 1 (FP, RP both inclusive)

R6: repeat FP of R1 and for RP:  Color Change  

Join and work the RP with color C2

R7 to R11 TSS in first 5 stitches, *TRs in next 5 stitches, TSS in first 5 stitches* Repeat * * till the end

R 12:   FP:  TSS in first 5 stitches, *TRs in next 5 stitches, TSS in first 5 stitches* Repeat * * till the end 

RP : Change color ( at left edge) Join and work the Returning Row with color C3 

R 13 – R17:   FP : TRS in each of the stitches till the end, RP 

R18: TRS for FP and change color for RP  (C2)

R19 – R 23:  Repeat R 7 – R11

R24 :   TSS in first 5 stitches, *TRs in next 5 stitches, TSS in first 5 stitches* Repeat * * till the end

RP : Change color ( at left edge) Join and work the Returning Row with new color  C1 

R25 – R29 : Same as  R 1 to R 5

R 30 :  bind off one stitch at a time

Note: pick up a loop from back vertical bar over TRs and Front vertical bar over TSS

Fasten off 

Do the border with Sc/hdc
