Foundation Crochet Stitches 

Learn to Crochet Series

Hello friends! Thanks so much for stopping by! Welcome to the first installment of Weekend Crochet – Tips & Tricks! Today I will share one of my favorite methods that I have learned as a Crochet Artist. Foundation Crochet Stitches!

I will be sharing a both a written description and a video tutorial for each of the Foundation Crochet Stitches. Included are Foundation Single (fsc), Half Double (fhdc), and Double Crochet (fdc) methods.

The Foundation Crochet Stitches are a great technique to add a bit more stretch to your work than a traditional chain offers. I love to use Foundation Crochet to when making hats, mittens, and crochet crowns to name a few! I highly recommend the Foundation Half Double Crochet (fhdc) method for the first round of my Basic Crochet Crown and Crochet Dinosaur Crown Patterns!

Basic Crochet Crown Pattern Release!

Hello friends!

I am so very excited to share with you that my latest pattern is completed and has been released! This Crochet Crown Pattern is one of the first patterns I wrote years ago, but I have changed and rewritten it some many times over the years it hardly resembles it’s original form.

I have changed the style, stitch count, and even the stitches themselves, creating a total transformation! Even though it may not look very different, the fit is now perfected and the results consistent. I like to think I’ve come a long way, and this pattern was a long time coming.
