How to Crochet Front & Back Post Stitches (FPdc & BPdc)

[@TansyBlue]

Thank you this explains it perfectly! Thank you also for making this a 5 minute video rather than a 20 minute one with an endless intro. :P

[@HookedbyRobin]

😅 I’m glad you like it, short and to the point.🥳

[@dshe8637]

I thought you might mention that if you alternate pack post with front post, you get a lovely, stretchy rib

[@suzanneseiple191]

I’m learning how to do back/ front posts for the first time. This has helped a ton! I’m going to make an afghan using the rice stitch from another of your videos. Thanks so very much!❤️❤️

You are an excellent teacher. Thanks for your help

[@tania.999]

[@HookedbyRobin]

I am so glad it helps Tania! 😃🧶

[@marianmcmullan5874]

I have had so much trouble trying to read which stitch was next until I saw this. I quit a project using the post stitches (which I l love) because I was unsure of myself. After seeing your video I can’t wait to get back to it.

[@HookedbyRobin]

I am so glad it helped Marian! 😀🧶

[@julieschafer2991]

[@Unic0rnSnot]

THANK YOU for demonstrating with contrasting colors! I can’t even tell you how much more helpful it is for beginners like me to see new stitches in contrasting colors ❤❤

[@HookedbyRobin]

Thank you so much.🥰🤗

[@nicknamesareoveratedisme7300]

Thank you! So clear and helpful - I’d just reached that stitch in a bag I’m making and couldn’t tell from the photos where the stitch was being made 🙄 your video and speed was perfect to follow 🙌🏻

[@HookedbyRobin]

Ah, I’m so pleased it helped!😃 How is your bag going?

[@amandah4834]

Thank you Robin I love using these stitches you teach it very well 👏...😊Amanda xx

[@HookedbyRobin]

Aw thank you Amanda!

[@andreamiles-keay7126]

Always so clear ,many thanks .

[@Misslele1123]

I love these ditches it gives the projects such a nice look

[@HookedbyRobin]

It's such a lovely texture isn't it?

[@tristanstorm3228]

Thanks Robin! It’s my favourite stitches to work with. Currently busy with an entire Afghan with alternating fpdc and bpdc diamonds so it looks the same on either side 😊

[@HookedbyRobin]

That sounds AMAZING

[@tristanstorm3228]

Hooked by Robin I’ll share with you on Instagram 😊 Thanks

[@Tangledtinkerbelle]

Thank you for sharing this, very well explained and easy to see! Now I can finish this neat looking beanie I'm working on ☺️

[@corinnametters5051]

That would look lovely as a cowl, with lil buttons to fasten or decorate the up/downy sections.. (I've done that stitch, but only by accident when I was learning how to adjust height of stitches 😅)

[@HookedbyRobin]

Oh yes Corinna!😃 Lovely idea.

[@pennymiles1039]

I have been struggling with these stitches. Thank you so much!!

[@HookedbyRobin]

You are very welcome! 😀

[@julielachtay5618]

I'm still struggling. Hours and hours and I just don't get the back post.

[@rosesperfumelace]

Thanks so much. Now I have to get better at 2 together stitches.

[@HookedbyRobin]

I can help with that! 😉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3qtp4Ccp810jNk

[@jeremycrawford1775]

Hey Robin, I was just wondering if you could do a video on to make an actual blanket using front and back post stich. I'd love to make one but don't know how to start.

[@nancywaterman8858]

One thing I have been looking all over the web for (and still haven't yet found) is how to deal with each end of the row.

[@HookedbyRobin]

Do you mean weaving them in after? I have a video here which might help! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fX7NpKd4mdWSaKc

[@jaymmehanrahan2110]

Thank you

[@HookedbyRobin]

🥰🤗

[@aadilavally4702]

Hi Robyn I hope you are well. Question. when you do the fpdc does the post or the hook face you and does the post stitch face away or towards you. Thank you.

[@gonkuicrochet]

Good work! :-)

[@HookedbyRobin]

Thank you!

[@lorettasinclair919]

[@teresae817]

[@FreeskeinfromMZZCOOLBEANZZZ]

[@valc825]

Hi Robin would it be possible to post a left handed version of this tutorial please?

[@HookedbyRobin]

Hello Val - yes of course! I will get that up for you :D

[@rosaredondo1598]

What hook are you using?

[@shirleydwyer6509]

what size Hook are you using?

[@HookedbyRobin]

Hi Shirley, I can’t remember off the top of my head - I am sorry(brain still in moving house zone.🫣). Use whichever hook size is recommended on your chosen yarn though. I hope that helps.😃
