Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make the Foundation Double Crochet Stitch!
This stitch/technique combines the separate rows of making chains and the first row of double crochet stitches.
First, with any project you'll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this stitch.
To make this stitch you'll need to know how to make chains (tutorial here!) and how to make the Double Crochet Stitch (tutorial here!)
You'll start by making 2 CHs on your hook
Yarn over your hook. You'll then insert your hook into the 1st CH you made. You'll insert it under the 2 top loops of that 1st CH. (Shown Above)
Grab that yarn through the loop and pull it through, you should have 3 loops on your hook. (Shown Above)
Yarn over, pull through only 1 loop. This makes the next 'chain' that you would work into for your next ST
You'll then yarn over and pull through 2 loops on your hook
Then yarn over and pull through the last 2 loops on your hook
For your next Foundation Double Crochet Stitch you'll be working into the bottom of the stitch you just made.
As you can see from the picture above, you work into the stitch you just made. Making sure to work under those 2 loops of that ST again, just like when we worked into the first CH. You'll work into the stitch the yellow arrow is pointing to. You would then repeat these steps for that next ST.
This is what the Foundation Double Crochet Stitch should look like when completed! You can see how the bottom looks like regular Chains and the top look like Double Crochet Stitches.
