Question: if I cut the loops, they won't pull out, right?? Meaning, they're locked in so the stitching won't unravel? What about if washed?

[planetjune]

@APenny1220 Yes, the loops are locked in, so they won't unravel. I'd suggest you wash it as you would delicates, and put it in a mesh bag or pillowcase, to make sure none of the strands snag on anything in the wash.

great tutorial.. its a little bit different from the others as you only wind up with two loops after you pull through..

[planetjune]

@no1pugmom Yes! I’ve seen at least 4 methods for creating loop stitch; my demo shows the method I find most effective, as, unlike the other methods I’ve seen and tried:

- It doesn’t distort the size of the ‘single crochet’ part of the stitch

- It locks the loop firmly into place

- The loops formed stand up nicely away from the work

ok

This is fantastic. Thank you so much! I really love how the loops stand up better the way you do it than the way I was originally taught.

Thank you for this tutorial. I've been searching for a while how to make such a stitch, so I can cut the loops as well if I want to.

Many other methods show a stitch where you can't cut the loop, because it would destroy your whole work.

Please keep making these clear and useful tutorials!

@planetjune Thanks so much. :) I'm going to be making a "fur" look with this stitch in a continuous round, so I'm glad I can cut it! :)
