GAUGE PATTERN (see stitch directions below)
Using I/5.5mm hook
Row 1: FHDC (to a minimum of 6” wide), turn
Row 2: Ch 2 (does not count as first st), herringbone hdc in the first st, herringbone hdc in each st to end, turn
Repeat Row 2 to a minimum of 6” tall
STITCH GUIDE
ch(s) – chain(s), sc – single crochet, hdc – half double crochet, st(s) – stitch(es), RS – right side, WS – wrong side, sl st – slip stitch
SPECIAL STITCHES
H-hdc – Herringbone hdc
YO, insert hook in st, YO and draw through the st and the first loop on the hook (two loops remain on hook), YO and draw through two remaining loops on hook. Be sure not to pull the first part of the stitch too tightly.
H-hdc2tog – Herringbone HDC two together
YO, insert hook in first st, YO and draw through the st and the first loop on the hook (two loops remain on hook) insert hook in next st, yarn over and draw through the st and the first st on the hook (two loops remain on hook), YO and draw through remaining two loops on hook.
OPTIONAL SPECIAL STITCHES
FH-hdc – Foundation Herringbone Half Double Crochet
Chain 2 (does not count as st). Yarn over (YO) and insert hook in 2nd chain from hook YO and pull up loop (3 loops on hook), YO and pull through 1 loop creating a chain, (this is an important step but easy to forget), pull the same st through the next loop on the hook (two loops remain), YO and pull through remaining two loops on hook. This completes the first foundation herringbone half double crochet. To stitch the next fh-fhdc, yarn over and insert the hook into the chain made in the first fh-hdc and repeat from to desired length or until the desired amount of sts are achieved.
