To begin working double crochet mesh stitsh, begin by making a foundation chain with an even number of stitches.

Once you've done that, chain an additional 4 stitches. This will act as your turning chain.

Next, work a double crochet chain into the sixth chain from the hook.

5.

Wrap your yarn around your hook and bring it through the first 2 loops, wrap your yarn around your hook and bring it through the next two.

Now chain one, and you will now work a double crochet stitch into the stitch after the next stitch.

Keep repeating these steps until you reach the end of your row. Creating double crochet stitches, divided by chain spaces.
