Whether you’re a sea­soned cro­cheter or a begin­ner eager to expand your skills, this tech­nique will enhance the qual­i­ty and aes­thet­ic of your work.

To com­mence this tech­nique, you’ll ini­ti­ate a slip­knot onto your cro­chet hook, fol­lowed by a cru­cial step of yarn­ing over and chain­ing four. This ini­tial chain sets the stage for the foun­da­tion. Mov­ing for­ward, yarn over again and insert your hook into the first chain, pulling through both loops to craft a dis­tinc­tive V‑stitch.

Con­tin­u­ing the process, yarn over, pull the yarn through, and com­plete the sequence by yarn­ing over, tear­ing through one loop, and then yarn­ing over and pulling through two loops twice. Repeat the yarn-over process in the ini­tial stitch of your last dou­ble cro­chet, work­ing through both loops to final­ize the dou­ble cro­chet.

Sure, let’s orga­nize the instruc­tions into para­graphs for clar­i­ty:

Place a slip­knot onto your hook to start the chain­less dou­ble cro­chet foun­da­tion. Yarn over and chain four.

Next, yarn over and insert your hook into the first chain. Go through both loops, cre­at­ing a V‑stitch appear­ance.

Pro­ceed by yarn­ing over, pulling your yarn through, yarn­ing over again, and pulling through one loop. Con­tin­ue by yarn­ing over and pulling through two loops, repeat­ing until the last dou­ble cro­chet.

To com­plete the last dou­ble cro­chet, yarn over and insert your hook into the first stitch of the pre­vi­ous dou­ble cro­chet. Work through both loops, then yarn over, pull through one loop, and yarn over again to pull through two loops twice.

Repeat this process for your desired num­ber of dou­ble cro­chets.

Con­tin­ue the pat­tern by yarn­ing over, insert­ing your hook into the begin­ning stitch of the last dou­ble cro­chet, repeat­ing the yarn over, and pulling through a sequence to com­plete each dou­ble cro­chet.

To tran­si­tion to the next row, chain three and turn your work. This chain of three counts as your first dou­ble cro­chet. Work a dou­ble cro­chet on top of each dou­ble cro­chet from the pre­vi­ous row by yarn­ing over, insert­ing your hook, and com­plet­ing the dou­ble cro­chet sequence.

Repeat this process across each dou­ble cro­chet from the pre­vi­ous row to cre­ate a new row of dou­ble cro­chets.

That’s how you exe­cute the chain­less dou­ble cro­chet foun­da­tion for the sec­ond row. Thank you for watch­ing, and if you found this help­ful, please sub­scribe.
