Learn how to begin a row without using chains. This stitch is perfect to keep the edges of your work straight and elegant.
Standing double crochet stitches (standing treble crochet stitches in UK terms) are great to start any row that consists of double crochet stitches.
It's quick, beautiful, and looks exactly like a double crochet stitch.
It is also thicker than a chain, so it it perfect for working in the round, as the first stitch on the round will be invisible.
