Top 8 Crochet Abbreviations

There are so many abbreviations out there when it comes to crocheting; I have comprised a list of only the most common & most important abbreviations.  Hope this helps you on your crocheting adventures!
TOP EIGHT STITCHES YOU NEED TO KNOW

                                                   St = Stitch

                                                    St = Slip stitch

                                                    SC = Single Crochet

                                                    DC = Double Crochet

                                                    TR/TRC = Treble Crochet

                                                    HDC = Half Double Crochet

                                                    LP ST = Loop Stitch

                                                    WS = Wrong Side

These are the basic stitches to get you started, even the most complex crochet things mainly require these 8 stitches I have listed above.  You may find, when reading patterns on-line, that not everyone understands or uses the correct abbreviations.  Not to say that one way is more correct than another, but if you were to buy a crocheting book or magazine these are the correct abbreviations you would find and follow.  I could go on and on and all the fun stuff in crochet world of abbreviations but I must go for now.

Until next time friends,
