STITCH GUIDE (U.S./American terminology)
ST Stitch HDC Half double crochet
CH Chain DC Double crochet
SLST Slip stitch TR Treble (triple) crochet
SC Single crochet TTR Triple treble crochet (4 times yarn over)
CSDC Chainless starting double crochet. This is a seamless beginning stitch, but you
may choose to CH 3 instead. Counts as first DC of a round.
CSTR Chainless starting treble (triple) crochet. This is a seamless beginning stitch, but
you may choose to CH 4 instead. Counts as first TR of a round.
FP-… Complete stitch around the front post of stitch indicated.
BP-… Complete stitch around the back post of stitch indicated.
SPLIT stitch Two indicated stitches together. Holding back the last loop of both stitches, make
first stitch into the stitch or space indicated (2 loops on hook), make second stitch
into the stitch or space indicated (3 loops on hook). Yarn over, pull through all
three loops on hook.
Working
THROUGH CENTER
OF SPLIT STITCHES
When instructed to work through center of a split stitch, work
in loops indicated by arrow.
POPCORN Complete the numbers of stitches into the stitch or space indicated, then drop
the loop from the hook, place the hook in the first stitch of the popcorn set, grab
the dropped loop, and pull it through.
Large POPCORN Complete 2 TR stitches in the first stitch indicated, then complete 2 TR stitches
in the next stitch, drop loop from hook, insert hook in first TR completed in set,
pull dropped loop through.
CLUSTER A set of stitches joined together at the top. Holding back the last loop of all
stitches in cluster set, complete the number of stitches into the stitch or space
indicated, yarn over, and pull through all loops on hook.
Working through
TOP LOOPS OF
CLUSTER
The loops that are held back on the hook, before the last yarn
over is pulled through forms all the top loops of the cluster. When
instructions state: go through top loops of cluster, these are the
loops referred to.
PICOT CH 3, SLST in third CH from hook, CH 1.
