How To: Crochet looks like knitting with half double crochet in rows / Camel Stitch
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- In this Crochet Extras tutorial I show you how to create the effect of knitting with crochet, that isn't the Tunisian method. Instead I show you how to utilise the half double crochet stitch to create a knitted pattern, just like in knitting, working either in the round or in rows. This stitch is also known as the Camel Stitch. It can be worked in single crochet but it's harder to see/do.
You can watch my Tunisian knit stitch tutorial here: • How To Crochet Tunisia...

Make each stitch in the back loop on each row makes a rib on front AND back. Cheers!
I do it always just in the back loop too.
"Do Be Do" Adorable :) @ 4:03 to 4:04 she points out the back stitch behind 2nd V and says "Do Be Do" It's funny the things we people do inadvertently.
I was able to understand and succesfully learn this stitch. thanks to you. this was the only tutorial i found that didnt make it sound so difficult and i actually love this stitch now. liked, subscriced, and saved to playlist. thanks so much!!
+cathleen garcia That's great! :D
You are an amazing teacher! I've been crocheting for years but have learned more from you than anyone else. Also I was at a craft store and bumped into a lady asking questions about crocheting. She is new to the hobby so I talked to her for a bit and mentioned you. She lit up and said yes I watch her videos! So you are bringing people together as well!
What a brilliant stitch, just made a small swatch, so quick and lovely and stretchy. Mwah x
Thank you so much! I'm designing a pattern and wanted a beautiful stitch and you have given me the perfect one. Very excited to start. I love your videos and patterns. Thank so much for your wonderful guidance.
How do you start the pattern? Do you start it out in the back loop?
I was struggling to find the knitted effect on the front side always, and was not successful with using crocheting hdc in the back loop...Thanks so much for sharing the nice trick and a neat way of remembering - front front loop and back back loop. Lovely. Bless you.
it would be very helpful if shown from bedining how to start it first off
joanne currie
she did tell you - you chain however many chains you want your piece to be and then do a row of HDC (half double crochets) and then at end of that row and rest of rows - chain one, turn - start as you would with another HDC only go into the 3rd loop as she shows in video. I hope this helps you :)

You are absolutely wonderful,I love the way you explain how to do the stiches and I wish If I could hold the yarn the way you do it,but I can"t.
OMG!!! I have been crocheting for 10 years and I have never seen this stitch. I LOVE it!!! worsted weight yarn with a 5.75 mm hook and it has the most beautiful drape. I'm using it to make a masculine blanket for my father-in-laws fishing camp. I love the idea for a sweater in the comments.
M Sullivan mine is curling up...any idea how to fix that?
Allyson McCormack...Mine too. I am planning to put some simple border around it
i finished it - 6 feet long, 6 inches wide with SC border. still curling. Going to steam block and hope that helps.
I am a very, very new beginner (haha) and starting with this method has proved difficult to understand, UNTIL I found this video! Thank you so much! You have a great way of explaining things :)
I love this stitch. I am sure it will look beautiful as a wool sweater. Thank you for the tutorial.
Thanks so much. I was looking for a knit looking stitch for a scarf, saw many, including Tunisian, but all that curling, ugh! I declare you the winner for simplicity and growth speed. Thanks again.
i loved your video. very helpful. have you ever done the half -double crochet slip stitch followed by a row of double crochet(U.S.)? I am trying to follow a hat pattern using this to make the ribbing but it's leaving big gaps at the edges.do you have any idea how i can fix this? any of my usual methods of fixing the usual dc "gap" or hole at beg. don't seem to work very well with the hdc sl st.
Use "turn -- stsc 2, cont. in dc to end" rather than "turn, ch-3, dc in 4th ch from hook, continue in dc to end", and count the stacked stitch like you would with the turning chain on the usual pattern. IF you're going for things like cables and ribs with fpdc/bpdc or efpdc every other one, then you might want to think about using linked stitches after the turn, although you'll get a denser feel than with stacked, but the counting is easier---unless you choose to use stacked, and inset your ribs or cables a few stitches into the work.
FIDDLY - but, excellent tip - 'on RS, Back-back loop then on WS, Front-front loop' - tfs!
Another of your great video's . I love this stitch. Going to give it a try, have been looking for a warmer thicker stitch to make a shawl with pockets.
I was so tickled when I learned this method. Ty for video.
I have been looking for a video a like this. Finally found one! Thank you.
Is this stitch good for a man's scarf? It does look abit stiff looking.
Fabulous! I can't wait to try this 😍
G'Day HBC, What a great way to do bands on crocheted jumpers e.t.c. It would make a stronger band than using the single crochet stitch. Normally I do Needlework and Beading but this has inspired me to try during the evening time. I have watched a few of your videos and liked them very much and will watch again. I can see it as part of a cable design jumper. I am going to see if I can crochet one. Thanks for the video. Chris from OZ. (Australia).
Because the directions didn’t start off with the 1st row I had a hard time figure out what stitch to do. Then I listened to her when she said wrong side of material front stitch which would make right side back stitch. Finally figured it out
I use blhdc or blsc for making the ribbed cuffs on mittens all the time.
I've watched your video to make the katniss cowl with the Solomon knot. I'm almost finished with the rope for the neck, I want to add this stitch instead of the Solomon knot. Do you have any advice? Thank you for your videos.
I'm so glad you shared this I've liked how that looks in knitting. I tried knitting just couldn't get the knack of it. I am anxious to try this.. thought I would make a baby blanket. A blanket for my fur baby trixie (cat ) with a thicker yarn. Thanks
Wonder if I could add this for edging on a girls' crocheted velvet winter hat?? Trying to find hat pattern in rounds so not to end with seam.
This is a fantastic flat stitch
This has me laughing a little. I was making a change purse in the round with the hdc stitch last week, and kept finding myself turning it too far to the side and stitching the wrong "v," as it were, and pulled out a lot of stitching as I messed up my little change purse. And what I was doing was this stitch. Wish I had the luxury of keeping the knit-look but that wasn't the pattern. Good to know for future reference, though!
I made something out of this stitch but find that the fabric curled just like it does in a knitted stockinette stitch. Is there a way to stop it from curling?
Excellent, and so clear! Thank you!!

Hi, thank you very much for this video!. I hoped. Please please, how did you begin?. I don't know how make this purl. I'm beginner.
Just start with a row of half double crochet.
Can one use this to make a stocking cap? If so, how would you reduce the width at one end? Also, is it very stretchy?
Mens scarf for Dean! This looks lovely, thank you for sharing.
This is great!! I love to knit and I think this is a great way to give my hands a rest from needles YET not compromise on the knit-look that I so love!!

I’ve started crocheting a jumper and decided I could do with some ribbing along the bottom. Do you think that if I crocheted this ribbing,I would be able to add it on? TIA
Absolutely but you could try crocheting some single crochets neatly around the edge of your cardigan and then working this stitch rather than joining it after?
@@HappyBerryCrochet thank you for replying to me. I have joined it on, might be a bit bulky but need to press it. X
Hello, Could you use this stitch for making an afghan? Thank you, Love your positive outlook.
How did you begin?
Thank you this was very useful! it would be great to learn how to make a hat with the long pattern not the circle one :)
TFS I needed a stitch like this for doing armband for a sleeve thanks so much
Thank you for your efforts to share. I appreciate and will try it. So simple in fact.
Wonderful! I liked it. Well done! Thanks for sharing
Varada Mahajani So glad you liked it Varada :D
How do you make a man's slouch beanie with this?
Is this the same as a back loop half double crochet?
Can you make for circle pattern please ???
Would this hdc work up as fast as sc knit look?
what yarn are you using it looks like a really nice yarn
Love you way of thinking!! Amen.
👍😀
Can I do a blanket with it
Wow! That looks fun!
Thank you! That is really useful 💙
yes a pattern would be nice
is this stretchy at all?
Forgot to ask you how you started the pattern it off. I know you must start with length of chain and then? Thanks -Chris
Chris Phillips I think you can chain and half dc how ever many stitches you wish and then just work the stitch after the half dc row. So you work the back loop then front loop and continue.
Chris Phillips I started with a simple row of chains, and then worked 1hdc in each ch along as normal, and then you need to work in the 'front front loop' on the first row across. Hope that helps!
KovenDC G'Day KovenDC, Thank you fellow crafter, it's nice to know that there are wonderful people like yourself willing to help out when the need arises. I appreciated your advice. Have a great day, my friend in Crochet. Chris.
***** It does indeed help. I thought about it for hours and then realised that the information you gave me was exactly what I thought you would do. I have been away from crochet for many years and I think I lost some of my knowledge of the craft. Thank you for getting back to me. Now I off to hunt down some wool - can't wait to start. Have a great day. Chris.
And it doesnt even say how to start.
Very nice
Thank You!
Love it
so simple to do
Maravilloso,gracias...
