The third loop lies right behind the back loop of a stitch.

CROCHETING INTO THE BACK BUMP OF A CHAIN
When you turn your chain, you’ll see a small ‘bump’ on the wrong side of each stitch.

START CROCHETING | SUEZ RIBBING STITCH

Turning chains at the beginning of row do not count as a stitch.
Number of rows in pattern repeat : 2

TO BEGIN | any number of chains + 2 turning chain.

R1 | Starting in third ch through back bumps, 1 ehdc to last st, 1 hdc in last st.

R2 | 1 ch, turn, 1 slst-ttl to last st, 1 slst in last st through third and front loops.

R3 | 2 ch, turn, 1 ehdc-tbl to last st, 1 hdc through both loops in last st.

Repeat R2 and R3 until you reach desired size.

Options for the edges: I have crocheted the beginning of the rows in two ways to prevent the edges from curling too much. In the Youtube video, you’ll see that it curls a little more, while in the instructions on the blog, it curls a bit less. Choose the option you prefer!
