Foundation Row Hack

[@Twinkley1981]

I think it’s a good idea to keep posting these tips up, because so many people still don’t know about these hacks, even those who have crocheted for a long time. I’ve use these for a years now, but I always wished I had known about these tips when I first started out, it would have saves me so much frustration lol 😂

I’ve never thought to simply undo the slip knot and remove extra chains like you show! I did know the adding to as far as chainless foundation style and the chain was new to me. I’ve been crocheting for 51 years now and I strive to learn new things in crochet so thank you for this!

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I’m so glad you found some use from the video! 😀🧶💕

Can you do a tutorial for beginners regarding foundation row multiple of 6 + 2, or 8+ ? 9 = ?, etc, single, double and triple crochet? Thank you.

[@PlayHookywithMe]

It will be a while until I can make that video so maybe I can help you right now. What are you having difficulty with? How to understand the numbers? If so, it’s a lot easier than it seems. If you see something like 6+ 2 , you’ll make your chain by groups of 6 until you reach the width you want for your project. 6,6,6,6…. And at the very end of that , then you’ll add 2 more chains. Then just follow the next part of the pattern. It will tell you what to do next. And it’s always like that. So even if the pattern says 8+ 4 , you’d follow the same order. Make your chain using groups of 8. 8, 8, 8 … then when you reach the width of your project add 4 more chains. It’s a good question and I will definitely make a video in the future but I hope that helps for now. ❤️

[@DK-dx7ei]

Thank you for your help! How many foundations chains should I have at the end before turning my work? Say if it's 6+2? I used this method to crochet an edging for a kitchen towel. And it's not coming out correctly. It's a flower edging and the video is in Russian? Here is the video....kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGOnlqybqc2DiNU so you get an idea of what I'm doing? I want this specific pattern, and can't find it in English anywhere. Thank you again for your help.

[@dustydwyer4723]

Thanks!

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Thank you so much for the super thanks! Sorry it took so long to tell you- I just learned today how to see this😐😅🧶❤️🧶

[@4x4kindagal]

When uou finish adding chains do you then pull the tail thru the last *first* dchain to reconnect the tail ?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Can you direct me to which part of the video you are referring to? Time please. That way I can better answer you .

[@4x4kindagal]

@@PlayHookywithMe @ 3:00 you added 2 foundation double crochet stitches, which are sitting above the original row/ 1st chains. Does it need to be attached to the slip knot?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

@@4x4kindagal ahhh, I see, thank you. No , it doesn’t technically need to be attached to the slip knot but what I would personally do is undo the slip knot and weave the end through to the new double crochets. If it scares you to undo the slip knot then I would still weave the tail through to the beginning of the new stitches . Hope that makes sense.

[@4x4kindagal]

@@PlayHookywithMe Thankyou. That makes sense, Love your videos, I’ve learned a lot.

[@soniatantush9060]

What to do then we've got 9 rows of double crochet but after each 2 is colour change ? Is this method also ok in that case? 😅 First time making crochet hat and after making so many rows I thought maybe I should have used different material of yarn but want to make something with what I have already and thought about making a bag from if but I need more lenght to it 😢

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Hi Sonia, do you mean to make those 9 rows longer? Yikes , I think you might have to just start over . 😩💕

[@soniatantush9060]

@PlayHookywithMe thnx for the answer. 😢💕

[@ninjaturtle365]

Is there a way to do decreases or increases??

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Possibly … but I’m not aware of a generic solution that would help many scenarios 🤔
