How to do Foundation Double Crochet
Posted by vicki brown on
As today is the day we start the Summer of Crochet Socks crochet-a-long and the first pattern (Cranage Socks) starts with a row of Foundation Double Crochet, I thought it would be a good opportunity to do a little tutorial for this stitch.
I love this method of starting any crochet work - I much prefer it to starting chains - and it's particuarly useful for this pattern as we go around and work into the underside of the foundation row and I think it makes a nicer base of the stitch.
If you really don't want to do this - then you absolutely can just do a starting chain and work as many stitches as the pattern calls for - but I think once you have a go at this you'll be converted.
Start with a slip stitch.
Chain two.
Insert your hook into the first chain you made (or second chain from hook) yarn around hook, draw through one loop - so you now have 2 loops on your hook.
Yarn around hook - draw through one loop again. So you've essentially worked two chains since inserting into your first chain.
Yarn around hook, draw through both loops, and that's it you've made the first stitch.
To work your next stitch (and all subsequent stitches) insert your hook into the bottom of the last stitch you made. A bit further down is a picture with all the stitch parts labelled if you're not sure where that is.
As you did for the last stitch, you now essentially do two chains, so yarn around hook, draw through one loop, yarn around hook, draw through one loop again. So you're left with two loops on hook.
To finish the stitch, yarn around hook, draw through both loops.
Then just repeat as required.
I hope this is helpful - any questions please ask away.

I am amazed by Dr Ogbo herbal remedy. I Have had herpes for over 6 years with frequent outbreaks. Sometimes average 2-3 times per month. Before one breakout could end, the next would begin. Nothing has helped me. I came online in search for a possible way to see how I can fight this virus so I found Dr Ogbo here online after seeing a lot of testimonies of how he cured herpes and other diseases with natural herbs so I decided to give it a try, I only took his remedy for two weeks and I was completely cured. I recommend Dr Ogbo remedy to anyone suffering from herpes that wants to be completely cured too. email: drogboherbalhome@gmail.com and for quick response Message him on his whatsapp number +2348110968476
I had an unfortunate experience where I lost access to some of my cryptocurrency, which was very stressful. After that, I spent time researching various methods people use to recover lost funds and came across several third-party services offering assistance.
I decided to try one of these services. (A-l-l-e-g-i-a-n-t P-r-o H-a-c-k-e-r) The communication process was clear/slow/mixed, and I was asked to provide certain details about my case. The process took some time, and while I did see some level of progress, it wasn’t completely straightforward.
Overall, this experience taught me to be very cautious when dealing with crypto-related issues. I advise others to do thorough research and be careful when choosing any recovery service, as there are many risks involved, and not all services are trustworthy.
Going forward, I’ll be more careful with security and verifying platforms before making transactions/investment.
A-l-l-e-g-i-a-n-t * P-r-o * H-a-c-k-e-r’s ability to deliver high-quality work under tight constraints is truly admirable.
