Every person has a hobby, and many people choose knitting as a fun activity that allows them to express themselves. Moreover, the products self made will never go out of style. This type of creativity can be practiced not only by adults, but also by children. After all, development is a huge advantage fine motor skills, perseverance and patience. No matter what products are created, the basis is always the same. Today we will look at how to crochet double crochets and what comes out of it.
Where to start
On diagrams, CH is usually designated as follows:
We will start with air loops. At the end of the chain we knit two lifting loops.
Then we yarn over the hook. To do this, we wind it from the left side by the thread. Now we thread the hook through the third loop on the chain. We repeat the grip on the left side of the working thread. We pick it up and pull it into a loop. There should be three loops on the hook.
We again wind the hook from the left behind the working thread. Yarn over the hook and pull it through two loops. The end result should look like the photo below:
Repeat the yarn over and pull it through the last loops. We have a column and one loop remains on the hook. We knit the row to the end. The technique of knitting stitches is repeated in a circle.
If it’s not very clear schematically or to check whether everything was done correctly, you can watch the video tutorial.
Knitting in the round
The knitting method in the round is very popular. A little higher we looked at how to create double crochets. They will form the basis of the future product. You've probably come across round knitted coasters, napkins, or decorative elements for things (handbags, dresses).
There are several methods for knitting a circle. But we will look at the example of today's lesson.
We will start with air loops. We need eight of them. Then we create a ring.
In the second row we knit two columns.
The third row will begin alternating. In the language of needlewomen, the result is a combination of two through one. This means that we knit one stitch from the first loop, and two from the second. And we do this in a circle. Accordingly, the third row is also knitted with an increase in the number of columns.
The diagram shows how to increase the quantity.
Below we have attached a video tutorial. It explains in more detail how to knit in the round.
Where is the technique used?
This technique is used almost everywhere: scarves, sweaters, sweaters and much more. And in order for you to consolidate the material and start creating something, we decided to collect some information. Before learning how to knit things, it is worth practicing a little.
So, let's look at a few master classes on what beginner needlewomen can knit:
- scarf. It is based on already learned double crochets with an air loop. Moreover, this version of the thing is not difficult to create. You will need yarn. Depending on what season the scarf will be knitted for. If you decide to make a winter accessory, then choose wool yarn. For the autumn period, take lighter material. For example, cotton in pure form or with the addition of acrylic. In addition to the threads, we need a hook. Its size will depend on the thickness of the thread.
- cap. The task is a little more complicated, but in this article we have already looked at options for creating a circle. We will need several skeins of yarn. The video tutorial suggests knitting a hat from acrylic and wool. As with the scarf, we select the material individually. Accordingly, based on the thickness of the thread, we select required size hook.
- socks. The video contains information on how to knit in a spiral, create an elastic band from threads and make embossed columns. First, you need to take measurements from your foot: girth and length. This will be needed to calculate the loops. Next, choose yarn, a hook, watch the video and knit socks.
- mittens. Well, we have insulated our legs and head, now we can start protecting our hands from the cold. They need to be protected from freezing. After all, there are so many more things you can knit ahead that you will soon practically stop buying clothes in stores. And what can we say about the pleasant feeling that you yourself created this thing and it serves you well.

You can view how different people knit double crochets. Perhaps someone else's method will be more to your liking.
Crochet lessons for beginners, part 4
All the variety of patterns crocheted, obtained from a combination of air loops and columns different types. Sometimes, in translated literature, the columns are called loops.
Single crochets
Single crochets are perhaps the most commonly used and can be considered as a starting point for further learning to crochet.
Single crochet stitches are low and form a dense fabric. At the top of the column you will notice a loop in which the front (closer to you) and back walls are distinguished. You can knit the front, back or both walls of the loop, but the appearance of the fabric will be different. The main method is to knit stitches on both sides of the loop. When reading crochet patterns and descriptions, this method is assumed unless otherwise stated.
So, let’s knit a sample using single crochets.
Knit a chain of 20 chain stitches plus 1 instep stitch. We knit the first stitch into the second chain stitch from the hook. We move the hook under the two walls of the loop, pick up the thread and pull it through the loop: two loops have formed on the hook:
Now we pick up the thread again and pull it through both loops. There is one loop left on the hook. We knitted a single crochet.
We turn the work over, knit one lifting loop, and then a row of stitches, picking up the loops on both walls.
In order for the edge of the fabric to be smooth, it is important to knit the first and last loops of the row correctly. Often, especially if they are knitted with thin threads, they skip the first loop of the row and the stitches of the next row are knitted directly into the second loop, or they forget to knit the last loop of the row. Be careful and count the bars while you study. You should always get 20 columns (lifting air loops are not included in this number).
You will get a canvas like this:
As mentioned above, a stitch can also be knitted behind the front or back wall of the loop.
Important: The first stitch in a row is always knitted on both sides of the loop so that the edge is even and quite dense.
Continue knitting the pattern: knit a few rows on the front wall of the loop, and a few on the back wall. Don't forget to knit the lifting loop. Look at the result: in all three cases it will be different. In the photo: at the bottom - several rows with single crochets behind both walls of the loop, in the middle - behind the front wall and at the top - behind the back.
Connecting posts (half-columns)
Connecting columns (or half-columns) are the lowest and form a very dense and rigid fabric, so they are rarely knitted with these columns alone. However, they are very often used when knitting patterns, knitting in the round and for connecting fragments of lace fabrics.
It is difficult to knit half stitches starting from a chain of chain stitches, so cast on 20 chain stitches plus 1 lifting loop and knit several rows with single crochets on both sides of the loop. Next, we will connect several rows of connecting posts. As we have already said, the lifting loop in in this case not required. Therefore, having knitted a row of single crochets, we turn the work over and immediately knit a half-dome into the first loop. We insert the hook under both walls of the loop, pick up the thread and pull it through the loop and then immediately into the loop that is on the hook. If we knitted a single crochet in two steps, then a half-crochet - in one step. We knit like this until the end of the row. Turn the work over and knit the next row in the same way. To make knitting easier, do not tighten the loops, make them wide enough, especially for the first and last loops of the row.
The sample shows how the canvas narrows: the connecting posts (above) are the densest, shortest and tightest of all the posts.
Double crochets
The next stitches that we will learn to knit are double crochets. We also start knitting with a chain of air loops: we cast on 20 loops plus 2 lifting loops. We knit the column into the 3rd loop of the chain. Performing a double crochet stitch can be divided into 4 stages. First we put the thread on the hook:
Insert the hook into the next loop, grab the thread and pull it through the loop. There are 3 loops on the hook:
We grab the thread with the hook again and pull it through the first 2 loops on the hook. There are 2 loops left on the hook:
Once again, grab the thread with your hook and pull it through the two remaining loops. We knitted a double crochet:
We continue knitting until the end of the row, turn the work over, knit 2 chain stitches, then knit 20 double crochets and so on.
Don't forget to knit the lifting loops
In addition to the already discussed methods of crocheting columns, there is a method of crocheting columns “in an arch” or “under an arch”. Look carefully at the double crochet: you can clearly see that it has a “leg”, and on top of the double crochet there is a loop into which we inserted the hook. But you can insert the hook not into the loop, but between the posts: then not one, not two, but three threads of the loop will be caught.
In the photo: below - double crochets for both walls of the loop, above - double crochets “in the arch”. Appearance In this case, the fabric differs slightly: when knitting “in a loop,” the fabric turns out to be a little denser.
There are different options performance of knitting with double crochet. The techniques for creating them are different, but the main thing is to understand the general essence. In the master class, the main point which to study the double crochet using a regular crochet, we will consider in detail various options this knitting method.
How to crochet a double crochet step by step in a master class
Let's get down to the basics of learning knitting using this method. First you need to knit a chain based on air loops. We add two more air loops to them. These loops are needed to prevent the product from twisting while knitting. We remember that they need to be added at the end of each row. Next, we begin to knit the double crochet stitch. We yarn over the hook. To do this, insert a hook under the thread. Next you need to insert the hook from front to back into the first loop air chain. Grab the thread and pull it through the loop. The result will be three loops on the hook. We pull the working thread again, but through two loops. There should be two loops left on the hook. We again pull the working thread through two loops, and as a result one loop remains on the hook. Thus, one double crochet is connected. The next stitch should start from the second loop of the chain. Using this principle, we knit each row to the end. Then we collect two lifting air loops. Next, turn the knitting over and proceed to the next rows.
When the technique of knitting a stitch with one crochet is well developed, you can move on to studying and practicing knitting a stitch with two and three crochets.
Double crochet with an air loop.Knitting with a double crochet on an air loop has its own characteristics. Its top is located slightly to the left of the body of the column itself, which is why during knitting a shift in left side in odd rows, respectively, in even rows - to the right. This can be corrected by inserting the hook not into the top of the double crochet of the bottom row, but as shown in the photo with green marks.
Let's look at the intricacies of the technique of making even columns
In the early stages of learning to crochet, you need to immediately pay attention to your personal style, accuracy in work and precise execution of one or another technique. This can be seen by how clearly the legs of the columns are connected, whether their height is the same, and whether the tops are clearly knitted.
When knitting, you should remember the term “working loop”, which is constantly located on the hook and is not counted in calculations.
A double crochet consists of the following elements: the point of insertion into the base chain, the leg of the column, the height of the column, the top loop.
It is important to remember that the vertex loops should be small. The working loop that is on the hook should not be allowed to stretch, since it is this loop that determines and regulates the width of the row. The working loop must be constantly pressed against the hook shaft with the middle finger of the right hand and released only when the knitting element is completed.
Double crochet in a circle.We will dwell separately and in detail on knitting a double crochet in the round. Circular knitting always starts from the central ring. Each row must have a clear beginning and end. At its beginning, lifting loops are made, which must correspond to the height of the knitted columns. Knitted with the addition of loops and ends with a connecting post.
In order for the resulting circle to be smooth and flat, it is necessary to adhere to the “rules of the circle”.
Learning the circle rule for double crochet
When knitting with a double crochet, you should start with a chain of 6 internal loops, the first row (circular) should consist of 12 double crochets, you need to divide the circle into 12 wedges and in each new row sequentially add 12 double crochets.
A circle knitted with double crochets is created according to the following principle:
So, we cast on a chain of 6 internal loops, as mentioned above, and close it into a ring using a connecting stitch. 1st row: knit 3 inner loops, then knit 11 double crochets with a ring. We close the row with a connecting stitch, namely: the hook must be inserted into the upper loop of the lift. Row 2: add 12 double crochets. This row should consist of 24 double crochets, while counting the lifting chain stitches as 1 double crochet. We close the row similarly to the previous one. The 3rd row is knitted according to the principle of the second, but you should already get 36 double crochets. Next, if it is necessary to add circles, the same manipulations are carried out, and the result is a circle knitted with double crochets.
Thus, in this master class we studied double crochet in an air loop and in the round, and to reinforce the material, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the video lessons.
Video on the topic of the article
We continue our acquaintance with stitches in the topic of crochet for beginners. In the previous lesson, we used step by step instructions knitted single crochets, watched a video tutorial on the topic, and also learned how single crochets are indicated in diagrams.
Today we will learn how to perform a more complex element - double crochet.
Why double crochet?
We discussed the concept of a column in great detail in the previous lesson. Let's remember that it is knitted in two steps: first we knit a loop, attaching it to the base, then we pull the thread through two loops on the hook. Such a column is formed from two separate loops after they are connected together - placed one above the other.
Now we need to understand what a double crochet is. Why does the column even need some kind of yarn over?
In essence, you already know how to make a yarn over when crocheting: we went through this both when studying, and even when we learned how to do it.
Yarn over is the first stage of gripping the thread with a hook: the hook barb is involved in the gripping, but not in the yarn over.
Before you yarn over, check that the thread from the ball is located behind the hook, knitting. By moving the hook away from you, we bring it under the thread - it turns out that the thread lies on top of the hook - from the back to the front. This creates a yarn over the hook.
So what if the thread on the hook is now in the way? And the thing is that the yarn over plays the role of an additional loop, it increases the height of the column when knitting, and, consequently, the distance between the rows and the columns themselves increases, additional space appears, the knitting structure acquires some airiness and delicacy.
Moreover, looking ahead, we will say that by combining and alternating stitches of different heights when knitting, we can get many beautiful patterns.
So, having studied the theory, let's start practicing!
Double crochet - step by step instructions
- We take a hook, a thread from a ball, make an initial loop and knit an air chain. In our example there are 7 loops. The last loop on the hook is not included in the calculation of loops - it plays an auxiliary role, connecting the hook and knitting. It is advisable to mark the first loop with a marker or a thread of contrasting color.
- The air chain is the base, the foundation on which we will build double crochets. First you need to go up to the level of the first floor (first row) - build a ladder. How tall will it be? - The same height as a double crochet. We say to ourselves: “Double crochet” - 2 words. Therefore, to lift you need to knit 2 air loops. So, we repeat: "Column" and at the same time we make an air loop.
- Now we say: "Double crochet"- and knit a second air loop. Our ladder is ready!
- We direct the hook away from us and under the thread - this will be a yarn over. Insert the crochet hook into the marked 1st loop, grab the thread from the ball and pull it back out of the 1st loop. Let's see - we have 3 loops on the hook.
- We grab the thread from the ball with the beard and pull it through two loops first. We see that we have 2 loops on our hook.
- Again we hook the thread and pull it through these two loops. We have formed first double crochet. Now it is not so clearly visible, because a ladder is pressed against it on the right. Therefore, to see the beauty of double crochets, we continue further.
- We repeat step 4– Yarn over and insert the hook into the 2nd loop, grab the thread and pull it back. We are the ones who are attached to the base. Now let's move on to step 5 and begin construction: stretch the thread first through two loops on the hook, then (step 6) again through the remaining two loops. Having knitted a double crochet on the last loop (in our example, on the 7th), we stop and tell ourselves that we are now moving to the second row and need to build a ladder. Therefore, we perform 2 lifting air loops. I repeat once again - the loop on the hook does not count.
- We turn the knitting and clearly define where exactly we have 1st stitch of second row. We make a yarn over and insert a crochet hook immediately under the two halves of the braid of the 1st loop. Grab the thread from the ball and pull it out. Next we look steps 5 and 6.
While you are studying, count the columns during the knitting process, so that each row produces the same number of double crochets. Do not count the ladders of two air loops at the beginning of the row - they are simply auxiliary elements of the lift.
In crochet patterns, a double crochet usually looks like this:
Now let's draw a pattern for our knitting today:
So today we learned how to knit double crochet- The most common crochet element. It is used in many patterns. Why is this so? The single crochet stitch has the optimal height of all the stitches - neither small nor large, the knitted fabric has a harmonious structure, moderately airy and durable.
I wish you to thoroughly understand the material of today’s lesson in practice: take a hook and suitable yarn, carefully read the instructions and follow each step slowly. Knit at least 10 rows with double crochets, compare them with single crochets. Which stitches were easier to knit?
Good luck to everyone! See you in the next lessons!

Getting started
1. To ensure an even feed of the thread, it is best to start from the middle of the ball.
2. The hook must be held between the index, thumb and ring fingers.
3. To evenly tension the thread, you need to wrap it around your fingers...
4. ...and pass it over your index finger.
Forming the first loop using a crochet hook
1. Insert the hook under the thread stretched with your index finger and thumb.
2. Pull it towards you.
3. Unfold the hook in a circle...
4. ...so that a loop forms on it.
