How to Reverse Single Crochet - a Great Border Stitch!

[@kaberle7]

Because of your simple and clear tutorial, I’ve finally understood this stitch and am finishing my SILs hat with it. It was easier to understand than Yarnspirations video! Thank you so much!! 🧶

😮Amazing how a video from long ago can make all the difference…. This video tutorial of the crab/reverse SC (US)/knurl stitch is the best one for me. It was like magic watching this stitch properly come to be. For me it was about the way the hook is initially inserted, then the way the yarn was pulled through down and then back up to have the two loops on the hook. 😄and now I can continue my project, not having to substitute w a different stitch, but the correct stitch!! 🎉I have a proper, good looking, stitch. 🎊 😊 tysvm!!! 🤗

Thanks for the clear, easy to understand instructions! Also glad you used two different colors which makes it easier to see.

[@MarianneKranenburg]

Fabulous. Thank you. Couldn't get this until I watched your video.

[@PeaceNOTwar222]

Best tutorial I’ve seen for this. The others don’t show the backward motion the same as you do. I still can’t master it yet but thank you so much.. 😊🌸👍🏻💚

I have done the reverse single crochet previously but needed a refresher. This is a good video.

[@katalinmcewan]

So well explained, thanks! I hardly crochet, but just finishing a raffia tote bag with this stitch. Pretty chuffed!

My older son and daughter in law are expecting a boy within a month now and I had been agonizing over a nice edging to the blue and green baby blanket I crocheted. I saw the picture of this edging and said, that's it! Not frilly and a neat, clean edging I can work up fairly quickly after the longer time of making up the actual blanket. Your video was perfect and I am so happy with how this little guy's blanket turned out - thank you!

Love your music and you are an excellent teacher! I just subscribed to your channel! Thank you!! 💖

[@flomaje1J]

Thank you so much. I went through several tutorials but couldn’t do it until I came across your tutorial. Now I make them like a pro😂

[@kristi-annespoljaric8043]

Thank you for easy tutorial

[@WhyAmIHereRK]

I had never heard of this stitch before, but I needed it as a border for a project for my daughter. Thank you so much for the clear explanation!! I found it quite easy, actually, which I SO appreciate because I get VERY easily frustrated :-/ I'll be checking out more of your videos 🙂

[@jackieo5287]

Thank you so much ...used the stitch on my Basket I just made looks awesome🤘🤘🤘😍😍!!

[@alanaharrison3405]

Thank you! I looked at multiple instructions for this and couldn’t get it right until copying your exact hand motions!

[@kimberlyespinoza7970]

I love this! Thanks for sharing!

[@Avceix0283]

Best tutorial ever❤️

[@ags516]

how do you end or join it at the end?

[@suenelson7667]

Thanks very clear. Big help!

[@marilyninns3912]

Thank you for your reply. I have only just found your channel and love the way you explain the stitches in your tutorials and going at a pace which is so easy to follow. Could I ask if you would say U.K. version of the stitches as well please x

[@bhookedcrochet]

It's definitely worth investigating as a large part of my audience is in the UK! I'll see what I can do to get this information added to my patterns :)

[@mattiesmith425]

thank you

[@chenoadirks2098]

❤❤thanks so much!

[@joylupkey5395]

i wonder if you can use this to border a scarf???

[@marilyninns3912]

On your diamond tutorial did you sc around them first before the reversed crochet? Thank you for your easy to follow instructions👍

[@bhookedcrochet]

I didn't put a single crochet border around the diamonds. Just reverse single crochet in each stitch to join them. I've had a lot of requests for a demonstration of this. I'll be working on it soon!

[@mayrithaps]

@@bhookedcrochet hey! Do u made a tutorial showing how to join de diamonds?? I really dont understand how :(

[@mariadasgracajuliano5396]

Quero a receita em português obrigada

[@gloriapatterson5314]

How do u finish it off once all the way around??

[@jamielee9958]

did you single crochet around the project before you started the reverse SC?

[@shellinearmstrong7177]

Thanks..I had forgotten how to do this🥴

[@saimarani.1967]

❤❤❤❤

[@barpalarp219]

But when you go all the way around and need to join it… how do you do that without it looking funny?

[@IamParalegal]

The yellow yarn is difficult to see against the white background.

[@MsSaka100]

I love this stitch, but I needed to figure out how to join it at the end so it doesn’t look too obvious. Unfortunately, this didn’t help with that. 😢

[@midnightlife]

This is also know as a crab 🦀 stitch !

[@xrciznuts]

This edging stitch is NOT an easy stitch!

[@carolanderson9234]

The swatch was not created using the single crochet method. There is no such thing. It was made using the single crochet STITCH
