I have always been a little intrigued with this stitch; it makes a double layer fabric and has the resemblance to long johns, with the little indented squares. But as I started writing, I realized that there were questions about the properties of this technique that I couldn\u2019t quite answer. So that is how I will preface this post, that it is a little beginning exploration for me with this technique.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_400\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-400\" class=\"wp-image-400 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0574-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"DSCF0574\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0574-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0574-1024x764.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0574-401x300.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-400\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Insert hook from the bottom of the loop, beginning with the back loop from the row below (now facing) and the front loop of the stitch of the current row<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Yarn over and pull through 2 loops<\/p>\n<p>The basic premise of this stitch is that you work single crochet stitches in the front loops of the row as well as the back loops of the row below. Working the stitch into the foundation chain can be a little daunting, so to give you an understanding of the stitch I will begin on the second row of a piece of single crochet. The rows of single crochet will be offset from one another, this creates the setback, while pulling up the loop from a row below creates the edges to the \u201cindented little square\u201d.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_401\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-401\" class=\"  wp-image-401\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0575-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"DSCF0575\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0575-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0575-1024x764.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0575-401x300.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-401\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yarn over and pull through 2 loops<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_402\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-402\" class=\"wp-image-402\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0576-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"DSCF0576\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0576-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0576-1024x764.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0576-401x300.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-402\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yarn over and pull through remaining 2 loops to finish stitch<\/p><\/div>\n<p>One of the main things to remember with this stitch is to insert the hook in the loop of the row below from the bottom, then insert it into the front loop of the next working row from the bottom. You then yarn over and pull through both loops (you might want to pull up a longer than usual loop), yarn over again and pull through the two loops remaining on the hook to finish the stitch. This will create a dense fabric, and if you want to have a little fun, you can alternate colors every row and get a double sided fabric (although there would be many ends to weave of leave it fringed).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_399\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-399\" class=\"wp-image-399 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0572-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"DSCF0572\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0572-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0572-1024x764.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0572-401x300.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-399\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Using two colors, here is one side\u2026.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_403\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-403\" class=\"wp-image-403 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0573-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"DSCF0573\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0573-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0573-1024x764.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0573-401x300.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-403\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u2026here is the other.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_404\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-404\" class=\"wp-image-404 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0571-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"DSCF0571\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0571-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0571-1024x764.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCF0571-401x300.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-404\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Play swatch, showing same technique using sport weight yarn and an N size hook (in one color), look at the open effect\u2026has some possibilities\u2026.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>One of the areas I plan on playing with is large hooks with finer yarns.
