The petit pois stitch, also known as a double stitch, starts by pulling up a loop in the second chain from the hook and then from the third chain from the hook

pull through all 3 loops on the hook finishing off the first petit pois stitch then pull up a loop through the same chain (third chain from the hook)

pull up a loop through the next chain, yarn over and pull through all three loops on the hook

continue to the end of the row
