Play Hooky with Me | What is a Standing Stitch? How to Make and Use Standing Stitches in Crochet @PlayHookywithMe | Uploaded March 2021 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Here is an alternative to the standard "chaining up" when starting a new color or skein on your project. Instead of creating a group of chains, you can replace it with the stitch you need immediately. This works for both rounds and rows resulting in a neat, uniform aesthetic to your work.

Time Stamps:
00:00 Intro
00:58 Slip Knot
01:20 Single Crochet - with slip knot
01:41 Single Crochet -without slip knot
02:30 Half Double Crochet - with slip knot
02:54 Half Double Crochet - without slip knot
03:50 Double Crochet - with slip knot
04:29 Double Crochet - without slip knot

Chain (chn) is the same for both
US single (sc) = UK double crochet (dc)
US half double (hdc) = UK half treble (htr)
US double (dc)= UK treble (tr)
US triple (treble) (tr) = UK double treble (dtr)
US double triple (treble) (dtr)= UK triple treble (trtr)
