Crochet for Knitters - Triple Crochet Stitch

[@cbsld2]

Just found you on KZbin and now have many more projects I'll need to create. Two Aunts taught me to crochet at age 18. I do come from a crafty family, especially on the maternal side.

Thank you, Stacey - love your films. They are so clear!

Hey there! The term you're looking for is "post" and not "pole." For texture or other techniques in crochet, the post becomes important for double and triple crochet when working either in front of or in back of that post. Look into "Front post double crochet," "back post double crochet," etc. Techniques like this can mimic "feather and fan" knitting and give them a run for the money (see Kristin Omdahl's Ivy pattern from Wrapped in Crochet as one example) or to add 3 dimensional texture or double-sidedness like in Tanis Galik's interlocking crochet methods.

I've been looking for theses kind of hooks. They seem like they would be good for my Arthritis. My grandma taught me to crochet when I was 9 or 10. I don't have a crafty family, other than my late grandmothers.

Is this what some refer to as a "treble"? I follow some british stitchers and I get confused sometimes.......thx

[@verypinkknits]

gr8fulgirl7 - sorry, I should have made note of that! What we call in the US "triple crochet" is called "double treble" in the UK. Here is a chart for reference: www.yarnfwd.com/main/crochet.html

When I start a new row how many stitches do I have to chain and how many do i have to skip

[@verypinkknits]

silvermist220 - sorry, there isn't a general answer for that - it depends on what you're making. I suggest finding a pattern you like (tons of free patterns on Ravelry), and follow the directions given in that pattern.
