This is by far the easiest tutorial on chainless foundation row that I have ever watched. Thank you for giving such an in-depth and easy to follow tutorial!
Thank you for using the needle to show where to put the hook in for the next stitch, it made all the difference!
Oh, my life is going to be so much easier now!! Thank you
thank you for this! i watched at least 6 videos on chain-less foundation stitches and tried a few times to do it. Your video is my favorite because you talk about making that first loop bigger and about keeping your thumb by it so you can find it when you need it later! :)
"And you can talk to yourself as you go through this." Like we weren't already talking to ourselves while chrocheting! :D
I've watched several videos and read several how-to's. Thank you! I finally got the FSC. The trick about pulling up on the first loop and showing with the needle was fantastic. THANK YOU!
Best tutorial I have seen. Got it instantly due to your advice for pulling up the chain loop so it is easier to see. Thank you 😊

Thank you. I’m so glad this helped. 😊
The Best tutorial EVER, love your calm and clear way of explaing how to do it.
Excellent job of explaining these stitches !!! I have crocheted for 65 years & never heard or saw this. I love U-Tube.
Yours is the fourth video I've watched and now I get it. Thanks so much!
I have never known how to do this, I have been crocheting for 9 years now and this is such an awesome technique!
You explain this technique very nicely. Thank you!😊
This looks easier than it is for ME. I'm going to keep practicing.
Great job explaining this. Now I might be able to crochet something. Thank you
I’ve watched other instructors make these chainless stiff and couldn’t learn them to save my life. Thank you for your demonstration and showing us what it looks like and the position of the Stitch and my fingers
Excellent tutorial!! I finally understand this, using the needle to show where to go next made all the difference. Thank you!
Sooo helpful putting your left thumbnail on the stitch and pulling the chain up longer - it suddenly made sense! Thank you
Thank you for the excellent tutorial. I've crocheted for decades, but never learned this technique. It will make doing "granny" squares so much more appealing. I've always liked the portability of making small parts at a time with those projects--it's less to carry around--but frequently starting chains is tedious and takes more concentration (counting 😩) when multitasking. Thank you!

Same here... been crocheting for decades and sort of avoided this technique... so glad I have learned it now!
Should be best teacher.thank u
Thank you so much for your tutorial👍. Your where my fifth instructor on the chainless foundation. The thumb idea worked for me🤣.
You're instructions are great!! You are the only person I have come across that has instructions for single, half double and double chainless foundations!! Thank you so much!!

Oh my goodness, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for adding how to count them! I've been ramming my head into the wall because there are no guides for how to count fsc, and I keep messing up my patchwork cardigan because of it! Thank you again!
Once again, you have saved my day! You are the best crochet teacher on KZread! I am making a handle on a basket type thing (made with PLARN) and I realized I was on a double crochet row and would not be able to construct it the way I was thinking by making a chain and then stitching back over it... so, I decided, after decades of crocheting, that today was the day to finally learn... you teach beautifully!
I like that cuz I have a hard time getting the chain to look good and thank you
This is a wonderful video, thank you! Your instructions are very clear and easy to understand. I like that all three chains are in one video too. Thank you again. = )

Thank you ever so much ! After watching any number of videos yours has been the easiest one to understand and I got it on my first attempt. Your thumb suggestion made it soooo much easier to see where I should be going. I thought I would never get it but now, thanks to you, I’m on a roll. 👏🏻
Thank you for explaining this so well. I always seem to have trouble with the chainless stitch! This is such an amazing explanation, you're the best!!!!!❤❤❤
This is the clearest instructions I have seen on this. Thanks.

Thank you so much, I haven't seen anyone explaing it better than you. Thank you ❣️
In my experimentation with chainless foundation, I have discovered that you can do this for any size stitch. The sky's the limit. Also, if you work into the back loop *only* in that first chain, there is a good result. That is: that the side of the first stitch looks like a proper chain instead of the turned around mess that most long crochet stitches look like. Also, the tail gets pulled up into the work more so it's easier to hide later. I would recommend either keeping those first initial chains very tight or decreasing them by 1. This method doesn't seem to need the length that normal stitches need - I'm guessing because there is no *actual* foundation chain and so it doesn't take up the extra space. But I could be wrong about that. ☕🥐
Thank you that was excellent, I watched a lot of tutorials for this and yours was the best I finally got it. I have ran across so many patterns that start with foundation rows and was afraid I would never learn it and you made it easy. I got so confused by many other ones I gave up. Yours is great, I got it. Thank you again.
Anyone will benefit from it. This is one if the best techniques I've learned. So much easier than long chains and having to go through each of them. Although I've been doing it for a while now I always watch tutorials covering it. Thanks! Great job!

+Thea Stewart Thank you so much. I agree. It's definitely worth knowing and having in your skill set. 😊
Awesome tutorial! I think I actually understand it now. Thank you.
I have watched several tutorials before yours. And tried a bunch of times. I couldn't figure it out. But I got it with yours. The needle showing where to pass was very helpful :D
Very good tutorial. Thank you
Thanks a lot I was looking for such informative things
It's late at night and I suddenly saw this is the recommendations. THIS IS AMAZING! 😍 Can't wait to try it tomorrow and start using for my cup cozies! Thank you very much! 💕
Thank you so much. I've always dreaded working the foundation chain and working into it. I don't think I will ever do straight edged projects like that again. You were very clear in your instruction and explained the anatomy of the stitches well. Great job!

Thank you!! First I am left handed & many things in life seem backwards lol. Secondly, I always struggle with figuring out on the foundation chain which stitch is the first or how to count it. This method is brilliant & I LOVE your tip on putting your thumb on the next stitch. I al appreciate the close up camera work! Awesome video.
Clever! Thanks for sharing this technique.
Best tutorial I have seen for this technique. Must admit it talk it as I do it,,,,,chain, single crochet etc it really keeps me from missing a step.

a new amazing method thank you
Thank u so much for the video. Ur directions are very clear and helpful. I watched videos for 3 hours yesterday trying to do this and got frustrated and stopped and ended my evening with a headache!
Thanks so much for this great tutorial!!!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful technique I will definitely use this method
Very useful. Thanks for sharing.
THANK YOU! I have spent the better part of the last few days trying to figure out which part of the stitch was the top and which was the bottom. I know … might be obvious to some but after hearing you explain the anatomy of the stitch when holding vertically it all suddenly became clear! Without your explanation I would have ended up with a mess. Thank you, and I subbed!

Great tutorial thank you, I am a complete beginner x
I finally know how to do it. thank you
Very good and helpful video thanks.
Thanks--have started doing this and much easier and better way to do. I had crocheted old way for moons.
Help , please !! I have to use my fingernail to get the back thread along with the loop onto my hook. What I am doing wrong ? I first tried with an H hook then a "J"....Thanks for the tip to use the loop by your thumb - that helped alot to know which loop. I am starting slow with the single crochet
Thanks ever so much for making it so simple. Was struggling with a previous tutorial
Fantastic video. Makes it so much easier to keep chain straight for foundation row. I have a question, how would you join to work in the round, ( for a cowl, for instance ). Thank you.

+Mary Walker Thank you! I don't know the "official" way but I've joined the top with a slip stitch, then used the tail to join the base when I weave in the ends.
Is there a video on how to turn and work the next row? I'll try to see if it's on your page.
@ForeverBlissCrochet

You would do so as for any new row: make your turning chain and work into the top of the stitches.
Single crochet: 0:49 Half double crochet: 5:12 Double crochet: 7:09
FSC makes such a nice starting edge, is there a way to make the same stitch at the end of a piece so that both sides (or top an bottom) both have the same amount of stretch and look the same?
I noticed that you yarn over and pull up one for the sc, dc and treble crochet stitches. I yarn over and pull through once for all. I always wondered if I was doing it the correct way.
new here... great tutorial!! only problem is...i finally learned how to do this chainless foundation months ago, and LOVE it so much however, no one ever shows how to finish or continue these in a round! there are a few decent tutes that show in rows, ok no brainier, thats easy! but i have only seen 1 person show in the round (like to do a hat) but it wasnt a good video for me to understand/see, but she did mention, like you to count that 1st chains/st as the 1st of the foundation! i would so appreciate very much to see how to join it properly to do hats or booties, etc! i have tried to join it so that it looks decent, like not finishing the last stitch, joining to the 1st st and then finishing or just finishing last one and slipping and then sewing up the bottom later, etc...still just cant seem to get it very well! thanks for any and all help you might be able to provide! i saw ur 1st vid earlier tonight on the 3 subs for ch 3 (which i hate those lol!! :D) been playing with a solution for over a year now (only 2 yrs crocheting), but i finally (THANK YOU!!!) can do that last one you showed, the twisty one! and i 'invented' it for a hdc too!! so again thanks so much!! (sorry for long comment!) new subby now! :) look forward to watching the rest of your vids!! :)

Cindy, thank you for taking the time to comment. To finish a chainless foundation row or round, treat it like any first row. At the end of a row, chain whatever you need to create the second row and work your way back across the first row of stitches. At the end of a round, you typically join with a slip stitch, chain up and make your second round. In the case of joining in the round, you have the base of the first row of stitches unattached. I like using the beginning tail to join the base with an invisible join before weaving in the end. I recommend this video to learn the invisible join: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aoCT1NaQpJqeeto.html. I'm so happy to hear your excitement for all the wonderful things you are learning in crochet!

thank you and your welcome. i did find a tutorial that shows how to join bottom and top when doing these in the round, which is what i was looking for!! i knew how to do everything else you described, just knew there was a way to join the bottom at the same time doing the top of the foundation crochets!! :) i love to keep learning and experimenting in seeing if there is a better or different way for things! i hope you will continue to make more vids!! the ones i watched were good, clear, non moving (as someone who suffers from severe motion sickness, i cant watch the vids where it 'travels' on the screen), and shows up close without being blurry! and stays in frame~~ i really appreciate those of you who make the tute vids, but esp those of you that make good ones!! :) THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! ::) YOU ARE APPRECIATED!!

How do you use the stitch in a project?
Why is mine curving upwards?
You need to add this: insert your hook into the bottom of the last stitch.
purpose of starting a chainless Foundation over starting a regular Foundation can you explain that please

Great question! I can think of 2 primary reasons. (1) Since you are making the chain and first row at the same time, you don't have to worry about making too few or too many chains. This is especially helpful on those projects that you need a long chain to begin. (2) These stitches create a stretchy end so it's good for socks, collars, sleeves, and pretty much anywhere that stretch would benefit your end product.
I do t just talk to myself when crocheting nut my roommates get a laugh when all the sudden I say a number out loud.

My husband comes in the room, he knows better than to ask me a question when he hears me counting. He patiently waits until I stop counting and look up at him. Is he trained or what?😁
THE HALF DOUBLE & DOUBLE STITCHES SHOULD BE IN SEPARATE VIDEOS OR IT CAN BE TOO CONFUSING TO LEARN THE SINGLE CHAINLESS STITCH.
Too fast...
Thank you for making this tutorial I've been looking for an alternative to making the standard starting chain and then working each stitch into it and now I've found it. This looks so much cleaner.
