How to crochet single crochet diamond

 There are beautiful geometric shapes which usually look beautiful in any pattern and look prettier in crochet if the right project is chosen.

I have recently crocheted a triangle which I always thought was complicated and had a secret to making a pretty one, until I made it and found it super easy.

I also love the hexagon shape, this though needed more effort than the triangle to recreate in crochet, but once done looks very pretty and attractive, at least to me :)

Apart from the shape, what makes these patterns pretty is the stitch, the single crochet stitch looks so neat and clean in any projects that I love to find different projects to make it.

Today I'm back with a diamond shape, I'll let you decide how pretty it is looking, for me I love it and again it is easy, if you have tried making the triangle, you'll be able to make the diamond.
