Historical version 1 of Treble Crochet (view current version)

(UK treble crochet is called "double crochet" in the US. And yes, UK double crochet is "single crochet" over the pond.)

Method: yarn round hook, insert hook in stitch below, yarn round hook and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook), yarn round hook and pull through first two loops on hook (2 loops on hook), yarn round hook and pull through final two loops on hook.

Variations

  • Linked treble crochet - Instead of doing a simple "yarn round hook" to start each stitch, put the hook through the fabric from front to back between the last two trebles worked, yarn round hook and pull through a loop. Linked treble crochet gives a denser fabric than plain treble crochet.
