what would you use this stitch to make, for example?

[tjw1963]

@1221Ivy It can be used with anything. The longer stitches like this one are more common with thread doily's.

Hi!! i love your videos although since i don't know all of my stitches like the half double and like that, sometimes i have trouble but very rarely!! anyway i wanted to ask you if there is a different stitch that comes after the quadruple stitch and where i can find instructions to it. i saw how there was one stitch called the treble treble but i don't know if that's the correct one. Your vids are gr8!! love yuu :)

[tjw1963]

@Xox0TwiLiGhTGuRlXox0 Thank you. This stitch would also be known as the double-triple. The stitch after would be the triple-triple. The just keep going but I have not seen them named after the triple-triple. If you are comfortable working long stitches, you can wrap as many around your hook as you would like. I have worked 10 loops with crochet cotton and had great success.

thats really sexy! : ]

but do you chain 4 or 5 to do the next row, im reall y good at crocheting to and your so awesome your my role model

[SuperGirls144]

wait so how do you swich colors in the middle of crocheting??

[kg1durham]

How would you start the 2nd row

[tjw1963]

The standard instructions will be a chain 4, which counts as your first stitch. I have found that the extra chains will cause a hole at the beginning so you can work a chain 3. You must remember the chain 3 is a stitch and to crochet in the top of it at the end of the next row.

[hulda2002]

what yarn are you using ??

[tjw1963]

4 Ply yarn.

Thank you for your helpful crochet videos. I'm sure a lot of people really appreciate them!

[tjw1963]

You are welcome. :)

[katlucas7677]

it has been many years since i last crocheted anything and i really appreciate your refresher course... i also love the designs you post... do you ever do any tutorials for needle point?

[tjw1963]

I have a few embroidery techniques that I have used on crochet like the straight stitch, daisy stitch, chain stitch, back stitch and blanket stitch.

[queenofhyrule]

what would i use this stich for?

[tjw1963]

Have you seen the cupcake video? The frosting part uses this stitch.

[hg1bbs]

Do you chain 5 after you finish a row of those?

Thanks for everything

Heather

[tjw1963]

You can chain 5 or chain 4 to eliminate some of the excess that the chain may produce.

[paulits15]

can you make a headband?

[tjw1963]

A headband from this stitch or something else?

[xxxsoniabxxx]

whats it meant to be?!

[tjw1963]

It is is known by several names.

[icebloomafoo]

It looks like a rotini, I like the spiral. :)

[dlghtd]

I just love your video's. I watched this one Friday and have made two scarfs already using just this stitch. They turned out so light and airy I think I will make a baby blanket for a friends shower.

[tjw1963]

Something else I was thinking about with the longer stitch is that you could weave in-between the stitches with a crochet strip(ribbon)or other machine washable media.

[heartbeatofhope]

what can I do with this style? what does it turn out to be?

[tjw1963]

I am going to be using this stitch in an upcoming demonstration in a yarn granny square. It is used a lot in the fine thread doily's most of the time. You will see the purpose once I get the demonstration complete.
