Learn how to make it in this tutorial! Now don’t get this stitch confused with the Standing Double Crochet! Chainless Starting Double Crochet Video Tutorial – Right Handed Left Handed Chainless Starting Double Crochet Written Instructions The Chainless Starting Double is worked as the first st of a row, to replace a chain 2 or chain 3 start – the usual method of working the “first dc” of a row. To make the stitch, pull up the loop on the hook to the height of a normal dc st. Hold the forefinger of your hook-holding hand on top of the stretched loop, against the hook, so it can’t move. Yarn over the hook with the stretched loop, so that the loop is wrapped around the hook as shown below.
Chainless Starting Double Crochet in the Round The Chainless Starting Double Crochet method of starting rows is the perfect way to avoid the wimpy 3 ch turning chain.

How to Crochet 5: Seaming Your Work In this how-to series we could move right on from single crochet to the other stitches (double crochet, half double crochet and triple crochet) but I'm pausing to talk about "seaming" because if you want to make anything other than washcloths or rectangular scarves or afghans (which are all good) you're going to need to seam some pieces together. Seaming is a good skill to have and it can be the difference between a cute sweater looking handmade instead of homemade. I am going to share two different methods. The first is the invisible mattress stitch, which works equally well for knitting or crochet by the way, and the second seaming method uses a single crochet stitch. Click to view the full tutorial. SEAMING WITH THE MATTRESS STITCH: You will need a tapestry needle to do the seaming, which is a large blunt needle and a big eye for threading the yarn. The mattress stitch is so fabulous because it's virtually invisible if you line up the stitches correctly. That is the mattress stitch!

Neat Ripple Pattern Ahhhhhhhh look at all those hooky ripplesome ripples, aren't they glorious? I love crocheting this pattern, its relatively simple, rhythmic and soothing, but playing with colours in this way is also energising, exciting and a lot of fun. Well to me it is any road. there's something magical and mesmerising about the way the ripple effect makes the colours sing and dance next to each other, and it's a pattern I can see myself coming back to time after time. When I made my first ripple blanket last year (finished in August 2008), I followed a pattern in Jan Eatons book (the Soft Waves pattern), and it has to be said that at first this pattern was not plain sailing. But I persevered and eventually I cracked it. So what I've done here for you is to write my own pattern. To start out, you need to crochet your foundation chain. Once you are sure you've got the right number of chains to begin (count carefully as you make them!) Yarn over, draw through 2 loops (2 loops on hook, as pictured above)
Hat Sizing Chart - Make the perfect sized hat the first time! - Hat Sizing Chart Getting the sizing right can be very frustrating when you’re designing a new hat pattern. I recently put this hat sizing chart together to try and make that process a little smoother. How to Use this Chart: Each finished hat size is determined by the Crown Circle Diameter. Click photo to view PDF This is the formula I used to get the Crown Circle Diameter necessary to obtain the finished hat circumference you want: Head Circumference / 3 = ___ – 1 = Crown Circle Diameter. EXAMPLE: Let’s say you’re making hat for a 0-3 Month old baby. This is the formula I used to get the Hat Height: Head Circumference x 0.4 = Hat Height. EXAMPLE: Lets use our 0-3 Month old baby hat again. You can use these equations for any hat circumference you need to obtain. If you like this Hat Sizing Chart, please share it!

How to Crochet: Double Crochet with Beads By Robin Beers – 19 Comments The materials you need are crochet thread or yarn, beads and a needle. I am using larger beads here so I use a tapestry needle to string them onto my yarn. Note: If you are left handed, just put your mouse over the photo for a left-handed view. First string the beads onto your crochet thread or yarn. Remember to put enough beads on. Begin crocheting the desired number of stitches, pushing the beads down out of your way. Yarn over, then insert crochet hook into the next stitch. Yarn over, pull loop through stitch. Yarn over and pull through 2 loops on the hook keeping the bead in place. Now bring the bead up from the back to the front of the work with your finger and hold in place. (Bring it around both loops, not through them.) Keep the bead secure in front with your finger while you yarn over and pull through the final 2 loops on the hook to complete the double crochet stitch. This is how you add beads to your double crochet work!
