Single Crochet (sc)
The single crochet, often referred to as sc, is the most fundamental crochet stitch. It involves inserting the hook into the next stitch, looping the yarn over the hook, and pulling it through both loops on the hook.
Double Crochet (dc)
The double crochet is an extension of the single crochet, creating a taller and wider stitch. It involves looping the yarn over the hook twice before pulling it through the loops.
Treble Crochet (tr)
The treble crochet, also known as the triple crochet, is the tallest and widest of the basic stitches. It involves looping the yarn over the hook three times before pulling it through the loops.
Textured Stitches
Textured stitches add depth and interest to crochet fabric. These stitches create variations in the surface of the fabric, giving it a unique and tactile quality.
Half Double Crochet (hdc)
The half double crochet is a versatile stitch that falls between the single and double crochet in height. It involves looping the yarn over the hook twice, but only pulling it through the first loop twice.
Tunisian Stitch (ts)
The Tunisian stitch is a crochet technique that creates a dense and textured fabric. It involves inserting the hook into the next stitch, looping the yarn over the hook, and pulling it through both loops on the hook. The hook is then turned and the process is repeated.
Moss Stitch
The moss stitch is a simple but effective textured stitch that creates a fabric with a raised, ribbed appearance. It involves alternating single crochet and chain stitches in each row.
Lace Stitches
Lace stitches are delicate and intricate, creating openwork fabrics that resemble delicate lace. These stitches are often used for garments, accessories, and home décor items.
Picot Stitch
The picot stitch is a small, decorative loop created by chaining a few stitches and then joining them together with a slip stitch. It adds a touch of elegance and detail to crochet projects.
Shell Stitch
The shell stitch is a classic lace stitch that creates a series of fan-shaped motifs. It involves making a series of double crochet clusters separated by chain stitches.
Spider Stitch
The spider stitch is a dramatic lace stitch that creates long, delicate legs radiating from a central cluster of stitches. It adds a touch of ethereal elegance to crochet projects.
