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.
Back in February, I lost around $170,000 to a cryptocurrency investment scam. It was an incredibly painful experience, and for a while, I truly believed the money was gone for good. I felt hopeless and honestly didn’t know where to turn.
Then I came across DARKEYES CYBERSECURITY COMPANY , and things started to change. From the moment I contacted them, they were kind, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing. They took the time to understand my situation and kept me in the loop every step of the way.
To my surprise and relief, they were actually able to recover my funds. I can’t explain the feeling — it was like a huge weight had been lifted. They didn’t just get my money back; they gave me back my peace of mind.
I’m beyond grateful for their help, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend them to anyone who’s gone through something similar. If you’ve been scammed or know someone who has, reach out to DARKEYES. They’re the real deal.

Am using this opportunity to thank Dr. Guba. I am grateful for the fact that for over years I have been sick with Hepatitis B disease, I have done a lot of things to get cured of my diseases and nothing has worked out. I have taken different types of medication for it , but it still doesn’t work for me. I still keep going for a check up so that the doctor will tell me my disease has be gone, because I’m taking my medicine with no result nothing has been cured, I have spent a lot of money just to get cure of Hepatitis B. until my old time friend came to my place and saw what am going through, and then direct me to contact Dr. Guba who is a very powerful man, which I did explain my problem to Dr. Guba and send me a herbal remedy bottle and explain to me how I should drink it. So I started to drink the herbal tea in one week that I drink the herbal tea. I went for a check up to check if I’m cured from Hepatitis B disease, then the nurse told me nothing is wrong with me anymore and said I’m fine. I am the happiest person right now. I promise Dr. Guba I will testify about his good work on the internet. Reach out to Him Via:drgubahealingherbs@gmail.com Thank you so much sir for what you did for me you’re the best of all.
