CROCHETING INTO THE BACK BUMP OF A CHAIN
When you turn your chain, you’ll see a small ‘bump’ on the wrong side of each stitch.

START CROCHETING |

Turning chain at the beginning of row does not count as a stitch.

Number of rows in pattern repeat : 2

Not reversible.

To begin | multiple 2 + 1 turning chain.

R1 | Starting in 2nd ch through back bumps, 1 dc in each ch to end.

R2 | 1 ch, turn, skip first st, 1 hdc in next st, 1 hdc in skipped st, [ skip next st, 1 hdc in next st, 1 hdc in skipped st ] repeat to end.

R3 | 1 ch, turn, 1 dc in each st to end.

Repeat R2 to R3 until you reach desired size.

TIP |

To achieve perfectly straight edges, you can replace the turning chain at the beginning of double crochet rows with a stacked double crochet. This technique improves the finish and avoids visible gaps along the edges. ⇒TUTORIAL
