"What's The 3rd Loop?

At The top of your stitch there is 3 loops:

Whether its a single crochet, double crochet 

or whatever crochet - most stitches have a 3rd loop.

The Front Loop - the loop facing you.

The Back Loop - the loop facing away from you.

The 3rd Loop - it behind the back loop, 

on the back of your work.

Vintage Candy Cane Cover Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Vintage Candy Cane Cover Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of 

Posh Pooch Designs

I first saw these Candy Cane Covers when I given one

 from my 1st grade teacher many, many years ago.
(Christmas 1971)

I do not know what ever happened to it.

After the School Christmas Program each student was 

given a Santa mug full of candy and 

 a candy cane with one of these covers on it.

So I thought it would be fun to make some and 

share the pattern with you.

It's super easy and they look lovely hanging on the tree, 

 as well as, added to your Christmas and Holiday decorations.
