Learning New Stitches

As I continue to gain new skills in my crochet journey, I have promised that I would share that with all of you. Well, recently, I had made a blanket that started with the normal chain, then I added my double crochet stitches. When I added the border, I didn’t really like how the first row looked different from the ending row. The chain stitch pulled with the weight of the border and I wanted it to look a bit more like the ending row, which I loved the look of. Well, I stumbled upon the no chain double crochet stitch.

It took me a few tries to get the hang of it, but I LOVE IT!

I hope you give it a try too.

This is the first crochet pattern that I had tried using the no chain double crochet foundation row. The goal was to have the first row look just as nice as the final row of the pattern. I hope the close up shows how nice it looks for this crochet shawl.

Often, when the initial chain is completed and the first row of a pattern is completed, there is sometimes a different look to this first row as the initial chain stitches seem to pull. Therefore, I was motivated to try the no chain double crochet stitch. I was a bit confused at first, and then I thought that the row was looking crooked. However, once I got about 10 stitches into it, I laid it out flat and it looked wonderful.

Just in case the directions are not clear to you for the no chain double crochet, here are photos of the process. Additionally, I have completed a video for you to help with understanding this stitch too.

Working the Colors of the Shawl

As you can see from the photo, the shawl has long rows of the fuchsia and white. The rows of each color may look random; however, there is a middle row of the fuchsia that consists of a double crochet, chain 1, skip 1. On either side of that, the rows are varied the same on each side of the middle so their is symmetry to the look of the lacy shawl.

Two Row Repeat

This crochet pattern is one of those patterns that is a pleasure to make. Once the first few rows are done, the pattern is in your head and you can watch television while making something beautiful.

Materials:

  • 1 Skein Caron Simply Soft Fuchsia 315 yards (I barely made it with one skein, if your stitches are loser that mine, it might take a bit into a second skein).

Special Stitch Directions:

No Chain Double Crochet – remember there is a video and photo tutorial above on how to do this. Hopefully, my directions are easy to understand. Essentially, what you are doing is working a single crochet and double crochet vertically rather than horizontally. This creates an initial chain stitch to look just as nice as the last row of crochet.

All of these steps will count as 1 No Chain Double Crochet Stitch. Chain 3. Yarn over and insert hook into the first Chain stitch. Next, yarn over and pull yarn though the first loop on the hook. Yarn over pull yarn over the next two loops. Yarn over and pull the yarn through the last two loops.

All of these steps will count as the number 2 No Chain Double Crochet Stitch. Next No Chain Double Crochet Stitch and everyone after this. Yarn over, insert hook into both loops on the bottom stitch. Next, yarn over and pull the yarn through the first two loops. Yarn over pull through the next two loops. Yarn over and pull through the last two loops.

Your pattern shows a button used to hold the shawl closed. How do you determine which type of closure to use?
