How to Increase Stitches when Crocheting (right and left handed video tutorials)

Increasing stitches when crocheting is easy – simply do multiple stitches into the one stitch below.

You can do this with any crochet stitch, and do any number of them.

 

In the videos below I show you how to do 3 x dcblo (double crochet through the back loop) in UK terminology or 3 x scblo (single crochet through the back loop) in US terminology. This increase forms points at the top of the Calm Chevron Blanket.

Hi! I’m Lynda (she/her) and I’m the lady behind Homelea Lass.

I’m here to help you improve your crochet skills and to help you find peace and happiness in your creative time.

In 2012 I was knocked down by debilitating chronic fatigue that put an end to my blossoming career as a Civil Engineer and Project Manager.

Early on in my illness, I discovered that I could crochet without draining my energy, so I spent my days crocheting, researching yarns and designing – this is how Homelea Lass was born.

My experience with chronic illness has guided me to combine my passion for exceptional design and crochet. I’ve developed a way of crocheting that’s enjoyable, easy to understand, and maximises it’s relaxing and wellbeing properties.

As my healing journey has progressed, Homelea Lass has grown, and I feel blessed that I can share my love of Australian merino wool, chunky crochet and creativity with you.
