CROCHET BASICS. Priscilla's Crochet @ priscillascrochet.net. Snuffykin's journal - Foundation single crochet tutorial. This is a photo tutorial for foundation single crochet. I learned this from Interweave Crochet magazine, Spring 2007 issue. To quote the article by Marty Miller, "Foundation stitches replace the traditional foundation chain plus the first row of stitches".
The traditional method creates a tight row. This method creates stretchier row that is more sized like regular rows. It's also useful when you don't know how many stitches you need to "cast on" for your project. These stitches are also referred to as base ch/sc and chainless foundation.

Crochet Tips - The Foundation Stitch. Copyright 1998 by Mary Rhodes These tips were re-printed with permission from the author. The tips are for your own personal use and may not be sent to others, posted on bulletin boards, posted on crochet lists or published anyplace else without the designer's written permission. One of the handiest tips in crochet is the idea of the foundation stitch. It is kind of an advanced idea, but it is so totally powerful that everyone should play with it. The idea, for me, came from the instructions for Foundation Double Crochet, printed in the green Coats and Clark HOW TO BOOK, copyright 1959. One thing about this idea is that it's a composite stitch: a stitch made up of two partial stitches melded together. (Other composite stitches include Fan Stitch and Clones Knot.) By combining the chain with the stitch, you don't need to work a foundation chain stitch row to begin a project, including all that counting on big pieces.
