Foundation Double Crochet
- Ch 2
- Yarn over and insert your hook into the first chain.
- Yarn over and draw up a loop.
- Yarn over and draw yarn through the first loop on your hook. This makes a chain stitch.
- Yarn over and pull through two loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through the last two loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and insert your hook under both loops of the base of the previous stitch (the chain you created earlier).
- Yarn over and pull up a loop.
- Yarn over and pull through 1 (like before), yarn over, and pull through 2 twice (just like above).
- Keep repeating the last three steps to grow your foundation double crochet row.
- Ch 2 doesn't count as a stitch.
- The sweater is made of 2 panels (front and back).
- It's crocheted from bottom to top.
- First you will make the back and front panel. You will slip stitch the front panel and the back panel together on shoulders and underarms. Crochet the waist and finish with a round of fpdcs and sl sts around the neck hole.
- You can lengthen the sweater by adding rows on the front and back panel (this will also result in wider sleeves), or by adding rows on the waist.
- The waist width can also be adjustable. Work more or less sl sts on the underarm seam for that.
