VIDEO TUTORIAL: A Better Stacked Single Crochet

12 Nov VIDEO TUTORIAL: A Better Stacked Single Crochet

Normally, when people do a stacked single crochet, they do the second single crochet through the left leg of the first single crochet. But that creates a lot of issues, including uneven looking stitches. I’ve created a way of doing a stacked single crochet that works with the anatomy of a stitch and mimics working under both top loops of a stitch if working into the row below.

The result is a stitch that truly mimics the look of a double crochet. In this video tutorial, I show the difference between the traditional method and my method, explain the anatomy of a stitch, then repeatedly demonstrate my method for a stacked single crochet.

Some followers on both Bluesky and Gander have expressed a desire for written tutorials to accompany the video tutorials. However, I’ve tried and failed multiple time to write out the tutorial in a way that makes sense. Give me some time to noodle on this more and I’ll come back to write it. I do demonstrate my method multiple times, so hopefully that is helpful!
