Materials

• worsted weight yarn
• crochet hook

Instructions

1. Start with any number of chains. In this tutorial I am starting with 12.

2. Half Double Crochet in the 2nd chain from the hook and in each chain to end.

3. Chain one and turn.

4. Skip the first stitch and instead, make a half double crochet in between the first and second stitch.

5. Half double crochet in between each stitch to the end of the row. (Making sure to encompass all three loops of the stitch)

6. Make the final stitch in the small space between the last hdc stitch and the turning chain.

Repeat steps 4 – 6 to continue adding rows. When finished, simply fasten off and weave in all ends.

That’s it! Super easy, mindless, and fun. Just make sure to snag all THREE loops when going between stitches.
