How to Chain Stitchby *SadDaysCrochet

Resources & Stock Images / Tutorials / Artisan Crafts / Other

I have been working hard for weeks but won't be finished for a few more, so I am posting some spoilers! Which is to say, you all either already know how to do this or don't care, but hey- look how pretty my diagrams are!

I'm working on my first pattern, which means I have had to make everything from scratch, including stitch tutorials. I will be including stitch tutorials for every stitch used in each pattern! So that even complete beginners will be able to make them. And then I will be posting a stitch reference database on my website for everyone to access for free whenever they want! (Yes- that url at the bottom is for real! It will have a pretty front page hopefully sometime this afternoon, but until then it takes you to a filler Tumblr page.)

But this is all very time consuming. So enjoy this free tutorial, give me feedback, and get excited for some fucking amazing patterns! (The first one's for a sweater, it will be free. The second one will be for a dwarven beard helm! It will cost $10.)

Very clear and informative! I'm excited to see what else you've got up your sleeves!

This is so well done! It is so easy to understand, I'm so impressed by the art you did for this

That is so good to hear! Illustrator makes it easier with custom brushes (in this case that look like yarn), but oh my goodness it is a lot of work, so I am glad it is understandable! I've been worried that it might not be as obvious as I think, but I feel reassured now. Which is good, because I have now done chain, single crochet, slip stitch, and treble crochet! I am going to be having dreams about crochet stitches. Actually I have already started having them. ... I have lost my mind.

It's cool. I remember when I first learned to crochet, when I closed my eyes I just saw stitches being crocheted. It was very odd because there was no hand just a hook crocheting away on it's own. You haven't lost your mind 0u0
