Treble Crochet (trc) – A Very Long and Lacy Stitch Row 1: Ch 13, YO twice and insert hook in 4th ch from hook. Draw yarn through ch. You should have 4 loops on hook. Begin working loops off 2 at a time as follows: YO and draw yarn through 2 loops on hook. (3 loops left on hook.)  YO and draw yarn through 2 loops on hook. (2 loops left on hook.)  YO one last time and draw yarn through both loops on hook. Begin next trc. YO twice and insert hook in next ch. Draw loop through. (4 loops on hook.) Work loops off 2 at a time again as follows: (YO hook and pull yarn through only 2 loops on hook) 3 times. Three times is why it is called a treble crochet with treble meaning three.

Skip the top of the first trc and trc in the top of the next 8 trc. Make last

Holding your hook in your right hand, insert the hook in the 2 nd ch from the hook. (You skip the first ch by the hook, this gives you room to begin your first sc.) YO hook and draw loop though ch. You should now have 2 loops on your hook. YO hook again and draw yarn through both loops on your hook. You have just completed your first sc. * To begin your second sc, insert your hook through the next ch. YO and pull the yarn through. YO once again and draw yarn through both loops on hook. Repeat from * across row. You should end the first row with 10 sc. Once you have completed all 10 sc, ch 1 at the end of the row. Turn your work around so the loop
