Double crochet is a basic crochet stitch commonly used in various projects. It creates a fabric with more drape compared to single crochet, making it suitable for garments, blankets, and lacework.
- Begin with a slip knot on your hook.
- Yarn over and insert the hook into the specified stitch.
- Yarn over and draw up a loop.
- You should have three loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through the first two loops on the hook.
- Yarn over again and pull through the remaining two loops on the hook.
- One loop remains on the hook.
- Repeat steps 2-6 across the row.
- At the end of the row, chain two (this counts as the first double crochet of the next row) and turn your work.
