Double treble crochet (dtr)

📌 Pin it and save for later


Written instructions

Double crochet - Insert your hook, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both loops on hook.


Making a swatch

For the double crochet sample you can see in the photos, I have worked 20 stitches by 24 rows. As I wanted to have a row of 20 stitches, I started with a chain of 21 which includes the ch1 turning chain, however you can make a swatch at any size.

Foundation chain: Any number.
Row 1: dc in the 2nd ch from the hook and in each ch across to the end of the row. Ch1 and turn. [20 sts]
Row 2: dc in the first stitch and across to the end of the row. Ch1 and turn. [20 sts]
Row 3-20: Repeat row 2.

Fasten off and sew in ends.
