How to Double Crochet

If you’re brand new to crochet, or just learning some beginner techniques…double crochet is one you’ll need and love!
This creates taller stitches than single crochet! Which means it creates more length than smaller crochet stitches, making projects like baby blankets and bath cloths go a lot quicker!

So, grab your yarn and hook and let’s get started!

To learn how to double crochet, you can watch the video below, follow the photo tutorial…or both!

Begin by Chaining 2.
