Front Post Double Crochet Stitch (FPDC)

[@giftedone2day725]

I been fearing this stitch forever thank you for making it easy

[@ellamullins6194]

Lmao sameeeeeee

[@tx1cowgirl]

Same here haha. I could have finished this last year

[@concerned4160]

I appreciate the comparison of the basic double crochet section to the FPdc piece; I need the visual comparisons. Very clear explanations!

[@TheSoup77]

As a beginner crocheter your video was very easy to understand and follow along. Thank you!

[@pipntuck]

very detailed, & informative. I'm not ashamed to say am a slow learner & usually need a few videos to catch onto something new, this video is clear enough that I figured out what I needed to do right away. Only watched it once & no other videos needed Much appreciated Thanks

[@thespiderthread]

I'm just starting to crochet (in fact, I bought my supplies only three days ago) and am learning all the stitches I need for a project I want to make. I thought this one would be really complicated and scary but honestly, with your explanation, I think I actually find it easier than the regular double crochet! Plus, it looks really neat. Thank you so much!

[@kedrafarlow4153]

I'm finally seeing that I can indeed do this stitch. Thank you for your easy to follow videos. Great instruction.

[@yrivera9matias]

The explanation begins at 2:01. Thanks!

[@strawberry5shortcake]

So easy to understand. Using super bulky yarn and it’s giving a very thick, fluffier look. Love it!

[@longlivechips5025]

Tutorial starts at 1:40. Helpful tutorial.

[@xitz_mehidkwhox7421]

Thank you so much for your help! I was making a pencil case pouch and i was watching a tutorial but halfway i forgot how to make a front post and your video explains it well thank you so much!

[@kbrathwai]

Thank you Ms. Jennifer for the front post stitch it's very easy for me to do. Thank you and God bless you.

[@TheKcbythec]

I have not used this stitch because I thought it would be too awkward but you took the mystery out, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.

[@laurenlagergren4848]

You made this so easy by being repetitive and showing it so clearly in your video. I l know granny squares and currently making a granny stripe throw and just started on a hat with the fpdc. Thanks bunches and I'll be returning for other videos.

[@borlygreen3832]

I love your video precise and repetitive enough. Right to the point. Thank you

[@misspat2944]

Thank you, for clarifying to yo BEFORE inserting the needle in front or behind the post. That is an very important step to getting this stich correct. Thank you so much. I am working on my courage to try to make a cable stitch, but the instructions omitted the yo as a part of the front post double crochet. The result was a condensed unrecognizable ball (yikes!) lol

[@ymqlam8127]

Very good demonstration! I learned how to do the front post double crochet quickly! Thank you very much! ❤️

[@ArtFromAurora]

Thanks for the tutorial! Even as a lefty crocheter, this was easy to understand and follow, so thank you very much :D

[@sandiboy66]

Thank you for your videos. They are a big help in helping me learn how to crochet. You are easy to listen to, and are very good at explaining what to do.

[@susanlynch3652]

Thank you. I found your Pixie Dust Scarf Pattern and am going to make them for Christmas presents. This video helped a lot.

[@elisephipps4622]

1:40 for how it's done - tha k you for this video!

[@linnyhajnalka4393]

You're my hero!

[@chikkijaxun]

Omg thank you!

[@craftychickkyle]

Thank you for this video. I love how thorough you were and the speed you took it so we could see each step. Thank you. Now I can actually make this Dr. Who police box hat pattern that I bought to make for a friend's daughter :D

[@KByers-gk9bb]

Helpful video! Just a tip: when teaching people to crochet, use the term "yarn over" as opposed to "bring yarn around hook," that way later on, beginners will recognize the term when it's written in patterns :)

[@karentzn]

You explained this stitch so beautifully. Thank you for your help. I am making my first doll dress with this stitch. Cannot wait to begin as now I understand what is required

[@jburch8309]

Thank you Jen. This will be perfect for a mug cozy. cheers. You are so talented.

[@RhondaABentman]

Thanks for the video! I’ve been so frustrated trying to do this off reading a pattern, it’s so much easier than I thought! Guess I’m a visual learner!

[@Pandamokneeums]

THANK YOU! love your instructions. easy to follow & easy to listen to. really appreciate the time you took to make these videos!!

[@ericasiddeeq5876]

Hi! Do you also make the front post double crochet st in the very last st on the end? You skipped that one. I have trouble ending my rows. Thank you.

[@darlenekrauskopf4656]

I enjoy learning knew methods of beautifying our fashions. Thank you.

[@Agnes-zi9pu]

Great video! Easy to follow. Thank you! 🥰

[@BlairHeiner-s7z]

Can I used this pattern for Sleeping bag? would it be good for that project? Blair I love your work!!!!!💞💞💞💞

[@anyatrioli3734]

Very clear tutorial, thank you so much!!!

[@elaineconstantine4298]

Brilliant and very clear instructions, thank you.

[@loveme4me]

Can you do this in the round please? My seam always looks weird. Ty

[@MrsWarcup]

Thank you for this tutorial! I just want to make sure I have this, correct… Do you start with the amount of change you want and then double crochet into those chains? Thanks again for a wonderful video!❤

[@melh1030]

Thank you for this tutorial!

[@bettinaw]

ok just need to watch while doing stitch for it to click. thanks for easy tutorial.

[@ralliehose123]

Thank you so much!! This was so clear and helpful!!

[@sherrialice]

I'm confused by whether you insert your hook before the stitch our after stitch. For example, if you're starting a new row and it says to fpdc in 3rd stitch from hook....do you first count over to the regular stitch, so you'd find the third stitch from hook...but then do you insert your hook in the hole to right of that 3rd stitch or in the hole after the 3rd stitch, so the fpdc would be just ahead of that 3rd stitch? I hope that made sense. Thank you.

[@ApeXxWar]

Now I need to see how you actually start the row and end the row and turn to start new row. That is where I mess up. I always end up with more stitches than I should have?????

[@bunnymaniscool123]

PsyGen Gaming to start you should turn your work, ch 2, yarn over, and then start in the second double crochet/post.

[@mmaurece7762]

Thanks so much!!!!!

[@michellebabin7582]

Hello, thank you for the demonstration but can you show me at the end of the row do you make a double crochet in the third chain or do you make a post thank you. Michelle Babin

[@amberm4181]

Very helpful! Thank you for this and back post double crochet video.

[@kimpage8380]

Thank you! Easy to follow video … Learned something new today! :)

[@KimMarchese]

I’m confused. What do you do at the end of the row? How do I add another row and what does it look like? Thanks!

[@jenubouka]

Great tutorial! I have that same hook😃

[@wvjmat1]

The pattern I am working on is *2 FPHDC, 2 HDC, repeat. I am confused as to what space the 2 HDC go in. I seem to be missing a few stitches at the end of the row.

[@notswifemazonna7420]

Question. When working the front post and then the next stitch is a double crochet, does the hook go directly in the stitch behind the already worked front post stitch? Or the next stitch over?

[@ravertaking6343]

Please explain how to do this: Ch 1, hdc in first 14 hdc, *skip next hdc, work Fpdc around next hdc one row below, working in front of Fpdc just made, work Fpdc around hdc one row below skipped hdc. Many comments on this pattern said it was confusing and I agree. It's supposedly an "easy" pattern. How many hdcs do I skip? Thanks.

[@cosmicmuffin322]

Other channels explain it much faster and clearer.

[@patb2582]

Then why are you here?? 😅

[@paulahowell1420]

Anyone know where I can find a channel that starts from scratch?

[@janieholmes3154]

Can you show how to connect at end of row and after slip stitch. I end with back post and slip stitch to connect and then unsure how to start next round??

[@tonitreadway6238]

Hi Jennifer👋🏼 I’m soooooooo glad that there is a name for this stitch bcuz my grandmother used to use that particular stitch when she crochet angels in the white cotton thread. I’m 57 years old & I would watch her crochet. I was never allowed to asked questions when she crocheted. So I had to watch her from a short distance. Would you happen to have a tutorial on the FPCS (front post coil stitch) I have just subscribed to your channel & I’m very very impressed. Thank you for sharing these awesome tutorials on KZbin. Do you have a Facebook page? I’m Toni Anderson Treadway on Facebook. If have any idea on that particular stitch could you inbox me on my messenger. If not that’s fine. I really really do like your tutorials. Again Thanks🤗

[@eefuntime798]

I want to make a blanket so using front post double crochet will make a thick blanket is that correct ?

[@HandcraftedintheFoothills]

Awesome explanation and tutorial!

[@karenrollins1469]

Thank you Soo much it didn't at all match what I had tried to do lol

[@christyrushing749]

Make it so easy thank you!!

[@susanerb1191]

I am doing a basket weave (crochet) baby blanket but I am having trouble on that turns. I am not sure where to insert the needle on the turns. Some are front post and some are back. Can you he;p?

[@chloewragg5041]

Thank you! Very well demonstrated...

[@gegehandmade]

Your explanation is easy and simple, and I offer you similar content. I love knowing your opinion about it

[@brookpope9476]

this was so helpful on my work thankyou!

[@jlin1014]

I'm new to crochet so this may be a "duh" question but do you start at the first post in the row or skip over one?

[@soma7940]

Thank you! Wonderful instruction!!!

[@PullipKisses]

Thank you for sharing!

[@lindsaycaldwell4186]

Thank you! That helped a lot!

[@gulgunolmez8356]

It's a pity you don't show the most important part. How do we begin the row and end it? So it's ok if I don't learn FPDC or BPDC . I won't be able to start the row anyway :(((((((((((((

[@metropcs332]

You didn't show from start to end☹️

[@janellemolineaux2140]

1:40 for tutorial

[@seylerfam7025]

Clearly done but took way too long to get the demonstration. Still 👍

[@stephanieshock6770]

Seyler Fam yesssssss omg

[@katrina9166]

Seriously? Life must be hard for you if you're complaining over something so small with a free video.

[@ahp259]

very nice thanks!

[@oliviagrieser3793]

I appreciate this video but it is really frustrating that it takes 2 min to get to the stitch. Maybe save all of the other stuff til the end? If I’m being honest, it makes me avoid your videos.

[@saturenagail6605]

Thank you, I get it now

You didn't show how to start or end the post... ughhh!!!

[@jodiemallow9931]

🎉

[@Marooska1]

Way to much talking before stitch is actually done. Like watching paint dry.

[@preciousmathis8116]

That was funny and all facts

[@LilRaccoon-in1xp]

She’s explaining to the beginners what a front post double crochet is in comparison to a normal double crochet, so we can understand why certain patterns call for this specifically. I think it was very helpful. You might find the fast-forward function on KZbin helpful. 🤗

[@sydney3090]

ik it's been 4 years have you discovered the fast forward button yet? Or gotten any nicer?

[@StaceyLee1294]

If only there was a skip option on videos
