The other shorter stitches are the double crochet and half double crochet.
i am making a blanket and the patter says to do a 1htr! i cant work out what it is!
It could be something that was written in another country. Something the language will be worded differently. You can try contacting the author.
is there a difference between a triple crochet and a treble crochet? then what is a double treble crochet?
Treble are European Terms from Great Britain. Yes, there is a big difference. I am not familiar with what the treble stitches are.
any recomendations on which stitch to use, i want to make a throw/small blanket. thanks.
I sent you a playlist with a lot of stitches to choose from.
sweet thanks!
I love your tutorials. I just completed my third scarf. The first scrarf looks crazy. The second scarf looks good, but the edges of crazy looking, and the third scarf looks great. My question… What items are made using the tall stitches? Thanks again
You can use the longer stitches if that is something that you like. I crochet with thread and have found that the taller stitch are more common with doilies.
This only difference between this one and the quadruple is that in this one you wrap the yarn twice and on the quadruple you wrap it 3 times , right?
Yes, you are correct. The stitches do get longer. I have worked stitches where the yarn was wrapped around the hook 10 times. This is done in thread crochet and works up really nice.
OMG thanks soooo muchie Teresa!

This was JUST what I was looking for!
Thanks for the Double Crochet Video too!
They’re SOOOOOOOOOOOO great and easy
You are welcome.
Hi I have been watching your videos and they have been very helpful. I am a beginner and I the reason I started is because my sister just found out she is pregnant with her first child and I want to make her a baby blanket. So I was wondering is there any certain type of stich that is good for a blanket and also is there a certain type of yarn that you would recomend.
I can only imagine that it must be my tension, but whenever I do practically any stitch everything seems too tight.
You are correct. That is tension. What you can do is practice holding the yarn looser as you crochet each stitch. Both hands will play a role with this, especially the opposite hand holding the yarn from the hook. Let the yarn flow through your fingers with a relaxed tension. Keep practicing and you will get it.
yeah, me 2…lol. The last time I tried I wanted to make a twin size afgan for my, then, unborn daughter. I measured it all out and all that, started on it and as I went along it just kept getting smaller and smaller till I thought “I guess it wants to be a crib afgan”, but it KEPT shrinking…lol. If i kept going i would have had a pot holder. I know its too tight, but it always looks like it will fall apart when its loose. I’m gonna watch these vids and give it another try. Lol.
in your book it tells you to wrap the yarn around once!!
I am making the tunic and everything seems ok!!
Wrapping around once is the double crochet. Wrapping around twice is the triple crochet. This is American instructions. I know they are different in the UK so that may create some confusion.
am now wrapping twice and it’s looking good!!
This video is a god send, i am a new beginner to crocheting, and reading what to do is not enough for me, but watching your video’s i get the stitch almost straight away, still practising at the moment though.
Thank you so much Teresa. xx
Can you give me some ideas of what to make with that stitch? I’m sort of a beginner…
You could make a blanket.
Could you help me please. My edge always looks uneven on both sides. Have only been doing crocheting for 2 days and dont want to get into bad habits. Thx
