Front Bottom Loop Half Double Crochet

Welcome Everyone! Today we are going to learn how to crochet the Front Bottom Loop Half Double Crochet. This stitch gives somewhat of a braided look and adds texture to your project. It is easy, quick and mindless to work up and as an added bonus this technique works perfectly with most bulky yarn. You can find more of my stitch tutorials and techniques HERE.

Crochet With Mistie! ~ Front Bottom Loop Half Double Crochet

For this stitch technique tutorial I chose to use an I (5.5mm) hook, and J (6mm) hook, 24/7 Cotton. This yarn is a #4 medium weight yarn. It’s another one of my go to yarns when working on stitch tutorials. I also love using it for accessory items.

Using a hook size up from what the pattern or yarn label calls for – I used my J hook
