Learn to Crochet Instructions Slip Knot

Slip Stitch (sl st) This is the shortest crochet stitch and unlike other stitches is not used on its own to produce a fabric. It is used for joining, shaping and where necessary carrying the yarn to another part of the fabric for the next stage.

1 Make a loop, then hook another loop through it.

2 Tighten gently and slide the knot up to the hook.

Chain Stitch (ch)

1 Yarn over hook (yoh) and draw the yarn through to form a new loop without tightening up the previous one.

2 Repeat to form as many chains (ch) as required. Do not count the slip knot as a stitch.

Half Double Crochet (hdc)

1 Yarn over hook 2 Yarn over hook (yoh) (yoh) and insert the and draw through the hook into the work (3rd work only. chain (ch) from hook on starting chain).

Insert hook into work (second chain from hook), yarn over hook (yoh) and draw the yarn through both the work and loop on hook in one movement.

To join a chain ring with a slip stitch (sl st), insert hook into first chain (ch), yarn over hook (yoh) and draw through both the work and the yarn on hook in one movement.

Single Crochet (sc)

1 Insert the hook into the work (2nd chain (ch) from hook on starting chain), *yarn over hook (yoh) and draw yarn through the work only.

2 Yarn over hook (yoh) again and draw the yarn through both loops on the hook.

3 1 single crochet (sc) made. Insert hook into next stitch: repeat (rep) from * in step 1.

Double Crochet (dc) 1 Yarn over hook (yoh) and insert hook into the work (4th chain from hook on starting chain).

2 Yarn over hook (yoh) and draw through the work only.

3 Yarn over hook (yoh) again and draw through all three loops on the hook.

4 1 hdc made. Yarn over hook (yoh), insert hook into next stitch (st), repeat (rep) from step 2.

3 Yarn over hook (yoh) and draw through the first two loops only.

4 Yarn over hook (yoh) and draw through the last two loops on the hook.

5 1 dc made. Yarn over hook (yoh), insert hook into next stitch (st); repeat (rep) from step 2.

Helpful Hints For best results, be sure to use the yarn recommended in the pattern, and purchase enough of one dye lot to complete your project. It is a good idea to retain ball bands in case of inquiry.

Before you begin to crochet check your gauge by making a test swatch and adjusting hook size, if necessary, to obtain the gauge quoted in the pattern. Inaccurate gauge results in an item too large or too small. Even a variation of half a stitch makes an obvious difference in the finished size.

(Example tension swatch shown is for 12 sc and 13 rows)

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: Bernat速 Satin Machine wash or hand wash in cold water using a mild soap. Machine dry.

Machine Washing: Wash Afghan, preferably on its own, using a delicate cycle, cool water and detergent. Softener may be added to the final rinse. Do not use bleach.

Machine Drying: Tumble dry at low setting. Do not overheat. * = The star symbol is a repeat sign and means that you follow the printed instructions from the first * until you reach the second *. You will then repeat from * to * the given number of times which does not include the first time. The ** and *** are used in the same way.

Crochet Gauge Range* in Single Crochet to 4 inches

* GUIDELINES ONLY: The above reflect the most commonly used gauges and needle or hook sizes for specific yarn categories. ** Lace weight yarns are usually knitted or crocheted on larger needles and hooks to create lacy, openwork patterns. Always follow the gauge stated in your pattern. *** Steel crochet hooks are sized differently from regular hooks - the higher the number, the smaller the hook, which is the reverse of regular hook sizing.

SKILL LEVELS Projects for first-time crocheters using basic stitches. Minimal shaping.

Projects using basic stitches, repetitive stitch patterns, simple color changes, and simple shaping and finishing.

Crochet projects may involve basic lace patterns or color-patterns, mid-level shaping and finishing.

Crochet projects may involve non repeating patterns, multi-color techniques, fine threads, small hooks, detailed shaping and refined finishing.
