Years after this was posted, it's still helping crocheters - how's that for legacy? I'm a beginner and thought this foundation chain might work better for my first ever blanket I'm trying to make. Yesterday I learned how to make a rectangle center, and now I learned how to make it better with foundation half double. Thank you so much for keeping it clear and simple :)
Yes!! I just found this today. I’ve struggled and struggled with foundation crochet but Tamara’s demonstration made it click for me. I didn’t understand chain and stitch working together but now I get it. Thank you Tamara!
Thank you both so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@mooglyblogand me! Thanks sooo much!
This is the best foundation stitch video is the best I’ve seen. You made it so easy to understand! Thank you so so much!
I found this video today in 2024 and it's just as timeless! The steps were explained and shown clearly. Thank you Tamara!
I have been crocheting since I was 5 years old and never heard of a foundation half double. I am now 62; just goes to show you should never stop learning! I've always disliked starting my work with a chain! Thank you for this awesome video and for helping me to keep on learning!
I'm an experienced crocheter, but every time I decide to use the foundation chain I forget! Your tutorial is by far the best I've viewed. The way you explained the components of each stitch makes me think these instructions will stick in my brain!
The absolute BEST foundation HDC video instruction I've seen. Thank you for not only keeping things simple and easy to understand, but for also being extremely detailed. Thank you!
This says it all. I never did any foundation stitches like this and felt comfortable after watching once.
This is personally one of the hardest stitches I've tried to learn so far and your video just made it a million times easier. Its so clear and I can easily follow along. Thanks so much for making this
Deeply appreciate the angle you are using ad it makes it easier to follow.
Thank you for this video! Every time I do a HDC foundation I have to watch a tutorial and I've always struggled. But the way you explain it in this video, it finally "clicked" for me! Thank you 😊
I love how you literally point at the different loops on the hook to show which loop becomes the "chain" and which loops become the "stitch".
Then again, I am subbed to your channel for more than one reason.
Thanks so much for very clear instructions. Your explanation was easy to follow and your camera was up close so what you’re doing was easy to see 🧶
Thank you! I am dyslexic and have issues reading a pattern. I have watched a bunch of videos on this stitch and have been completely lost! You explained it and really took the time to show that V (I was missing it every time!). Thank you for making this clear so that I can keep adding more stitches to my arsenal.
this was explained so well! other videos don't explain that first loop is technically your chain and that explanation really helped. thank you!!
Thank goodness for posts like these. Lots of times I will encounter in books only half explains on how to do the stitches. That annoys me to no end. Thank you for showing this! Life saver!😘❤️
You have the gift of teaching! I've tried this stitch before and just gave up. You made it clear and explained exactly what I needed to know to really understand the stitch and not just go through the motions ❤️❤️
This is definitely the best tutorial on doing the foundation hdc. Makes the 1st row look so much neater. Thank you 🧶
This is the first time a foundation stitch has made any sense to me. Thank you for explaining how the first part of the stitch made what we consider to be the chain stitch - that was the missing thought process for me all of these years! Thanks so much.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! I've watched several tutorials on how to do foundation stitches and I couldn't figured it out. You have taken that little extra step to explain each stitch and why. Thank you!!
Your explanations are amazing. Now I know why my foundation chain curved! Thank you.
This is fabulous. I also watched your tutorial for FSC and both of these are clear, concise and get right to the meat! I am also very appreciative that your camera work is in nice and tight and is clear throughout. No fuzzy shots! Thank you
Thank you for teaching me a new crochet skill so clearly!
Tamara, thank you so much for helping me understand how to do the HDC foundation stitch. I tried doing it before and missed it. Now I got it. Have a wonderful day. You are a great help to newbies!
Out of all of these different videos showing this yours is the most explained and easy to follow so thanks 😊 I'm making a cardigan and the bottom is like a skirt in 16 pieces and it says to use a hdc foundation chain and yours has helped me so thanks so much 😊 I have watched and learned from alot of your other videos too 👍🏻
I love the way you taught that stitch Tamara. I have watched other how to videos for other stitches and couldn't catch on. And I love to crochet. You did a great job. I'm going to look up more of your videos. Thank you.
I have tried several times to conquer this stitch watching other videos and could not get the stitch right. Thank you so much for this easy to follow video. The photos showing the “v” in the chain was the defining key that made this all click. I will definitely search for more of your videos in the future.
This is a great tutorial, thank you! You taking a moment to explain the anatomy of this stitch helped me get it, I miss that in most tutorials. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you so so much. This is such a great stitch to start a jumper. Beautiful, stretchy, and very easy when following your tutorial :)
Thank you! I'm so glad you like it!
This is the clearest and simplest video I’ve seen on this technique to date. Thank you!!!
Game changer. I couldn't understand foundation dc videos I found so I followed this but made them full dc instead of hdc and OML MY PROJECT, HANDS, AND CLOCK ALL THANK YOU
♥ I'm so glad it helped!
I’m telling you I have watched many foundation chain videos and could never catch on. One try with your video and bang! I got it. All I can say is THANK YOU!
Yay, I'm so glad it helped! ♥
Favorite foundation row video yet. Finally makes full sense to me!
omg this was the only tutorial i actually understood, thank you so much ☺️🫶🏼
Thank you very much, you demonstrated so clearly and thoroughly! Excellently explained, 10/10
I have watched at least 10 other videos on how to FHDC and never understood it until I finally found your video! THANK YOU!!!!! ❤
I'm so glad to hear it! Well, not the struggle part lol! Just glad you found this one! ♥
GREAT explanation! I have tried to understand this multiple times and I finally can see it clearly. :) Thank you!
Thank you so much for being so patient with your explanation. I come back to this video every time I start a new project that uses hdc (I have a terrible memory). Thank you for your help every time!!
Thank you! I can always count on you for clear, easy-to-follow instruction.
Thank you very much. Everytime I have problem when trying the new skill, then I look for your videos :-) They're always helpful.
Perfect and I really appreciate how clear it is - many tutorials are confusing - you ROCK
Thank you! That was much easier to understand than the written instructions I was trying to follow.
your explaination as you go is PERFECT! Thank you!
I'm so glad it helped!
Awesome.
I've been crocheting for years and years and have never seen or heard of this stitch.
So Th Ankh Ful that you are here.
Great Video!
Thank you so much! ♥ I'm so glad you like it!
I love your videos and how thorough you are and how you explain every tiny little step… It’s so helpful!
Brilliant video, I’ve been trying to figure this out for ages and yours is the only one that was clear and slow enough to work for me…thank you very much!
This is the best video I have seen for this stitch. Thanks for taking your time and being so clear and concise. Also for the little tips that you included. I appreciate it!
Love how you explained this. Perfect. Thank you!
Thanks so much! I had watched four videos before this one, but was so still so terribly lost; your great explanation saved the day on my end!!
+Crystal Fuller Thank you so much! :D I'm glad to hear it!
Thank you for explaining how this works vs just a demo. Makes perfect sense to me now!!!
I have a pattern for a lovely light crocheted short cardigan that will look great over a dress, but it is entirely made of half doubles. (It doesn't help that the yarn is black.)This stitch has confounded me so much that I put the whole thing away. Your video has made this much clearer for me now. I just might dig out that pattern again. By the way, I have been crocheting for a very long time. Thanks for the clear info!!
Seasoned crocheter here and I agree with the others … yours is the best example of how to do a FHDC! Especially the very beginning of the stitch which is the most difficult.
Finally understand how to do foundation crochet stitches! I'll probably not use foundation chains again. Thanks so much for an excellent tutorial!
Whelp, I never thought I would "get" this stitch. But, I think I do now! Thank you so very much! ☺️🥰
Thanks, Tamara Kelly - Moogly 🤗 for creating & sharing this crochet tutorial!
Thank you. You just taught me this stich. I'm making a dog coat for my Chihuahuas.
Thanks so much! I was trying out another tutorial but their explanation was too hard to follow for me. This was perfect!
This is soooo cool! I Hate working into a chain! Thank you so much. I'm going to the FSC video. Your teaching is fantastic! Your voice is calm and even and your video showed what you are doing❣️
THANK YOU!!! I have had SO many people (in person and over the internet) try to teach me this. I figured I just wasn't going to get it. But now, after watching this video ONCE, I can do the thing
Oh yay! I'm so glad to hear it, thank you!
You have excellent teaching skills. I always get the stitch, following your steps. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much! ♥️
Great explanation and tips! I was wondering why my foundation was curving and you've solved me problem :)
Thank you for such a clear demonstration and explanation
Thanks so much for doing this well!! The slow explanation and multiple work-thrus of the stitch were a huge help. Thanks muchly!
Blyss Enns Thank you!!
This was by far the most helpful video with this stitch. Thank you!
Melissa Waters Thank you so much!
Thank you for the clear, detailed instructions!! 😊
I've tried foundation stitches before and just couldn't get it. I did this time. Thank you soo much!! Great lesson.
Thank you for telling us the key reason for using this stitch (in my case for a wool headband pattern calling for it): it is stretchier than using a chain row and then a row of HDC. The stretchier reason is understandable for a headband. Thanks!
Thank you Tamara, you made that very easy. I do love your crochet hook. It’s beautiful!
I'm 64 and numerous patterns started with a foundation chain, my first try gave me anxiety and never tried again. You made this sooo simple, thank you so much... Blessings ❤
I'm so glad it helped, thank you!
Amazing teaching job!! Helped me so much and on more then one occasion!! Thanks
Thanks for the tip on pulling what would be the chain stitch to the level of the other loops-I wondered why I was getting a bend in my row!
Very well explained and demonstrated. Thank you.
Great, great tutorial video! I never understood why there were so many loops and YO’s and chains “Oh my!” 😱 But this video really explains things and with the visual aid it has really helped me see and understand the CHAIN and the STITCHES and how they come TOGETHER at the same time. I used to be only a kinesthetic learner but as I’ve gotten older I’m now also a visual learner too. So this video was perfect to help me learn. Thank you so much for sharing this video!!
I'm so glad to hear it, thank you Nicole! ♥
This helped me today! Thank you for posting so many years ago! ☺️
I'm so glad, thank you!
Omg I’ve tried to learn it before and got soo frustrated but this was explained perfectly
Thank you! Thank you! Every other video I've looked at on how to do this has either gone too fast or didn't show exactly where and how to stitch. There's a scarf pattern that I want to do that uses this, and I was afraid I'd never get to do it 😆 Now I can 💖
Thanks a lot! Always happy to find your channel in my researches. I know it will be really good and well explained.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so very much for explaining this so well! I love knowing which ch means what 😄
Great explanations! Thank you so much!
Great explanation and demonstration. Thank you
THIS IS AWESOME! Thank you so much. Yours was the first video I clicked on and this made total sense. LOVE it thank you again!
This video changed my life
For the better, I hope! ♥
OMG! Thank you!! This is so well done and so easy to follow.
Thank you I am making a top and this came in very handy
Such a great time saver! Thank you
THANK YOU!!! FINALLY, someone told me why my foundation stitches always curved!! 😊
Great video! Your instruction were easy to follow and very helpful!
Thank you. I love this tutorial!
Thanks so much for sharing and teaching!
Thank you very much! You’re a terrific instructor!
Thank you so much! ♥ I needed that today!
Thanks! This one is the winner & I've got it now!
Thank you for making it so clear! I really appreciate it!
thank you SO much for this...your instruction and camera quality are so clear! Subscribed :)
+JessyBee1313 Thank you so much!
My mom taught me to crochet decades ago, but I never really did anything with it. I'd go on a kick every so often, buy a ball of yarn, and TRY to make a scarf...and lose interest when I was 30% done. I can't begin to tell you how many times I donated balls of yarn to the local thrift store! My biggest problem was the chain...my tension was all messed up. My chain was always tight AF, but my 'work' would be nice and loose; as a result, everything I made was lopsided even if the stitches added up.
Well, this winter I went on another kick...but this time, I made about EIGHT scarves, start to finish! I stumbled across the "chainless" method a couple of weeks ago, and I can't begin to tell you the change it's made in my crochet skill levels! I just finished a receiving blanket (my largest project ever!) that I started with a chainless double crochet foundation, and now I'm in the planning stages of my next project. I'm going to make myself a crochet ruana (possibly with added sleeves)...and I'm going to use the chainless method on all three panels.
The instructors I've found here, including Tamara, have made their instructions so easy to follow along with. Just two days ago, someone saw me crocheting and commented that they'd always wanted to try but figured it was too hard. I immediately recommended youtube to her, and specifically mentioned Tamara (as well as a couple of others!) as great teachers.
Thank you so so much! ♥ And congrats on sticking with it and finding the method that works for you!
Wonderful explanation I completely understood the construction thank you very much
Thank you so much. I'm about to start a project and I'm so glad I found this tutorial. 👌🏻🧶
This video just got you a new subscriber! Great job , VERY understandable💡
Thank you. You made that so easy to learn.
Ok now I’ve got it. My problem was locating the « bottom « of the stitch. I had it opposing.. I thought the bottom of stitch was the top loops of stitch.
I guess I needed refresher of crochet vocabulary. Maybe add a stitch closeup to help verify insertion.
Also this video popped up under lefty foundation half double rochet, not right handed.
Explanation is crystal clear once I got the right (bottom)! Thanks
The best video! Thank you!! I'm trying your fringe scarffor a friend.
Wow you made that easy! Thanks!
Thank you so much - extremely helpful!
Glad I found this! Thank you😊
Thank you so much for a clear and precise instructions!
came for the crochet... stayed for the world domination
