In this DROPS video we show how to crochet a relief pattern (aka raised crochet).

You can create a relief texture on a crochet piece by working in the front and back post of a stitch. In this video we are crocheting every other stitch as a normal tr, and every other st as a relief tr. Start with a row of regular tr. On next row we are working "1 tr, 1 relief tr in front post", on 3rd row we are working the relief sts in the back post. This creates a rib texture on the right side.

You must read the pattern to be able to follow. You’ll find patterns where you can use this technique by clicking on the pictures below.
