Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make the Extended Half Double Crochet Ribbing!

First, with any project you'll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this stitch

For this tutorial you'll need to know how to make Chains (CH), I have a tutorial here! How to make the Half Double Crochet Stitch (HDC), tutorial here! How to make the Extended Half Double Crochet Stitch (EXT HDC), tutorial here! And how to work in the Back Loops (BLO), tutorial here!

 

Starting from the beginning, make any number of chains

❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈ ❈

 

Row 1: Make 1 EXT HDC into the 3rd CH from your hook

Yarn over your hook 1 time, insert your hook into that CH, grab that yarn, pull it through, pulling up 1 loop, yarn over your hook 1 time, take that yarn through 1 loop on your hook, yarn over your hook 1 time, take that yarn through all of the loops left on your hook to complete that ST

Then make 1 EXT HDC into each CH across to complete this row

Yarn over your hook 1 time, insert your hook into the next CH, grab that yarn, pull it through, pulling up 1 loop, yarn over your hook 1 time, take that yarn through 1 loop on your hook, yarn over your hook 1 time, take that yarn through all of the loops left on your hook to complete that ST

Row 2: CH 2

We are going to be working 1 EXT HDC into each ST, but only working into the Back Loops (BLO)

So to identify the Back Loops, look at the top of your stitches

The loop farthest from you, on the back of the stitches are the Back Loops

You'll then work 1 EXT HDC into each BLO for the rest of this row

 

You would now repeat Row 2 for however long you want your project

This is what the Extended Half Double Crochet Ribbing should look like when completed!
