    @BelgianKitty It is just telling you how to work a double crochet by saying to work through 2 loops twice.

  3. BelgianKitty says:

    HI I am working on a pattern that says: Yo, working from front to back to front, insert hook around post of st of row below, yo and draw up a loop, (yo and draw through 2 loops on hook) twice. Skip st behind the FPdc. The posts and the double crochet are no problem, I however, get lost at the word twice. I know that if I don’t do this twice I end up with half of the number of stitches as I began with.The scarf wants 2 FPDC, 3 BPDC, 3 FPDC, 3 BPDC, 2FPDC, hdc. Twice meaning what exactly? THANX

    @TheMissyfiona Think of right side like a shirt. You have the right side and the wrong side. Sometimes with crochet, you have to decide which side will be the right side and then go from there making your stitches on the same side for the remainder of the pattern.

  5. TheMissyfiona says:

    The pattern I’m working with right now calls for front post double crochet and it says on the right side. Which one Is the right side?the side that has the rib raised by doing the fpdc or the other side? Thanks!

  6. tjw1963 says:

    @kjcort Yes, this is what your pattern is talking about.

    Hi Teresa,thank you for the video, i m going to make a hat and i m wondering how to make an increase for both Front post dc and backpost dc .
    It says in my book ” make 12 double crochets for the 1st round” which i understand…,but then the 2nd round i have to add 12 more stitches ,2 front post dc ,2 back post dc alternately.When i do it, the stitches are way too tide and they look very messy,i m not sure if i do it in the right way… can you pls show it to me when u have time?Thanks a lot!

    Thanks soooo much for this site! I come here so often now to find out how to do certain stitches! I especially love your demos on front and back stitch db crochet! May God Bless you! I can’t thank you enough!

  16. ramiske1 says:

    Awesome videos!! The slow motion is superb! I’m adding you to my favorites!

  17. tjw1963 says:

    I will be here as long as YouTube is here.

  18. sharbr2 says:

    Thank you I hope you plan to stay on utube. I saw an afghan I wanted to make using this method in squares and now I can make it! My mom is going to love it!

  19. tjw1963 says:

    You must be talking about an increase. I like to go around the post of the stitch twice. It is up to you if you prefer to crochet in the top of the stitch for the increase. It will work both ways.

    before hand I had to do 1 double crochet in a stitch then I had to do 2 double crochet in 1 stitch. Now I have to do the fpdc and the bpdc and I was wondering when I come to the posts where there’s two in one stitch do i go around both of them while doing a fpdc and a bpdc or do I just go around one of them at a time?? I’m following a pattern for a cupcake purse I’m making for my daughter :)

  21. tjw1963 says:

    Thank you. :) If you are working over 100 stitches, then 50 will be single crochet. The single crochet will be worked in the top of the row you just got through crocheting. The FPDC is a stitch over the post of the previous stitch, then you single crochet in the top of the next stitch of the previous row. I hope that makes sense.

  22. kmenicanin says:

    Your videos has helped me so much since i started crocheting so I though it would be best to ask you question.
    A pattern i am working on calls for me to do a *Fpdc around 1st post of prev rows dc then sc in the next st repeating * over a total of 100 dc in the prev row. where i am supposed to put in my sc in the sts. its hard since its a text based pattern and is not too clear as to where to place the sc.
    If you could help out it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you :)

    This is the stitch used with the basketweave stitch. It was also used with the cable X crossover tutorial for the large cable. These cables are used to create shapes, textures and designs.
