Crochet Stitches

Crochet Basic Stitches
I use the terms for USA.
UK has a slightly different meaning for each of the following. (There is no Single Crochet in the UK.)
I have put a video below to explain the US terms, and I have also attached a table, after the videos, to show the difference between the USA and UK.

Chain (ch)  |  Single Crochet (sc)  |  Double Crochet (dc)  |  Treble Crochet (tr)

Half Double Crochet (hdc)

Below is a table which converts the US to UK for stitches. If you’re reading a pattern, be sure to know which country the pattern was written in, so you can use this table to work out which stitch you should actually be doing.
