Stacked single crochet (STsc) is my go-to for starting double crochet or treble crochet rows—it’s such an upgrade from the usual chain 3 or chain 4 as the first stitch! For double crochet, I use 2 single crochets, and I initially assumed I’d need 3 for treble crochet. But after experimenting, I settled on 4 stitches: the first single crochet in the chain space and 3 STsc on top. Treble crochet might not be the most common stitch, but if you’ve tried it, how many STsc do you prefer to start with?

Sharing a quick tutorial on the linked treble crochet stitch — one of my favorites! It doesn’t stretch width-wise, leaves no gaps between posts, works up quickly, and looks great on both sides. I am alternating linked treble crochet rows with single crochet rows on wrong side. Plus, I’ll show you how to start a treble crochet row with a stacked single crochet. Hope you enjoy it, and thanks for watching! #outstandingcrochet #crochetstitch #crochetvideo #crochettutorial #crochettips #crochethacks
