Photo instructions for the raspberry crochet stitch

Row 1

1. Start by chaining an even number of chains.

2. Make a single crochet in the second chain from your hook.

3. Then keep making single crochets in every stitch until the end of the row.

4. Chain one.

Row 2

5. Turn your work around. Now you will work in the very first stitch like it is shown in the picture.

6. So, make a single crochet in the very first stitch. Next you will make a front post single crochet in the next stitch.

7. So, insert your hook bringing the post of the next stitch to the front.

8. Yarn over.

9. Pull the yarn through. Now you have two loops on your hook.

10. Yarn over.

11. Pull the yarn through both loops. You have just made a front post single crochet.

12. Make a single crochet in the next stitch.

13. Then make a front post single crochet in the next stitch.

14. Repeat until the end of the row: single crochet in the next stitch, front post single crochet in the next one.

15. The row should end with a single crochet.

16. Chain one.

Row 3

17. Turn your work around and make single crochet in the very first stitch.

18. Then make one more single crochet in the next stitch. Now you will make a front post single crochet in the next stitch (the one that is more pronounced, closer to you).

19. So, make a front post single crochet.

20. Then make a single crochet in the next stitch, a front post single crochet in the next one. Work in the same way until the end of the row when only two stitches are left.

21. Make two single crochets in the last two stitches. For the rest of the pattern repeat row 2 and 3.
