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.

THANK YOU DR. KURIAMA 🙏
I don’t usually share personal health issues publicly, but I believe my story can give hope to someone else who is suffering in silence.
For few months, i was diagnosed with the herpes virus. The constant outbreaks, pain, shame, and endless drugs from the hospital were destroying me mentally and financially. I prayed for a permanent solution because the antivirals were only suppressing it, not curing it.
My breakthrough came when I met Dr. Kuriama. From day one, he handled my case with so much professionalism and confidentiality. No judgment, just pure understanding and knowledge. He explained the root cause and how his herbal medicine would work to flush the virus from my system.
I committed to his herbal treatment for few days then i receive it. The herbs were pure, well-packaged, and he monitored me every step of the way with calls and follow-ups. He told me what to eat, what to avoid, and encouraged me when I felt discouraged.
By God’s grace, I completed the treatment and went for a new lab test, the result came back NEGATIVE. I did it twice to be sure, and both confirmed I am herpes free. The joy, relief, and peace I feel right now cannot be put into words. I have my life, my confidence, and my health back.
Dr. Kuriama, you are a true gift to humanity. Thank you for your honesty, your expertise, and for dedicating your life to healing people with herbs. You didn’t just cure me you restored my hope.

I want to stand before you all today to give thanks to Lord Gius for a life-changing miracle. For a long time, my family and I were going through severe financial hardships. We were struggling to pay bills, dealing with mounting debts, and there were days when the weight of our financial future felt completely overwhelming. Despite the stress, I kept praying, holding onto faith, and trusting that a breakthrough would come.A few weeks ago, I made a spontaneous decision to try a lottery spell caster, I did not think much of it at the time, but I whispered a quiet prayer, asking for relief from our burdens. Lord Gius, told me what would be required which i did, then he gave me numbers to play and i did according to his intructionns, When the results were announced, I checked the numbers, and to my absolute shock, they matched. I had won the lottery.In that exact moment, a wave of overwhelming relief and gratitude washed over me. I burst into tears, knowing that our financial struggles were instantly over. This blessing has allowed us to clear all our debts, secure a home, and establish a foundation for our family’s future.I am sharing this testimony not to boast about wealth, but to testify to how quickly circumstances can change. I am profoundly grateful for this unearned blessing, and I pray for the wisdom to manage these resources properly, to be a blessing to others, and to remain grounded. Thank you, Lord Gius, for this incredible miracle.
