Live With Sara What does "Opposite Side of the Chain Mean?" | Posh Pooch Designs

Live With Sara 

Today's Topic is:
What does "Opposite or Other Side
 of the Chain" Mean?"

See The Video On my Youtube Crochet
Channel At This LINK


This is when you are working on both sides

 of the beginning chain.
Chain a certain number of chains,
crochet down the chain,
turn, and crochet down the Opposite side 
of the chain.

The Stitches do not have to be Single Crochet Stitches,
 I just chose to use them for the demonstration.

This technique is great for crocheting anything that
 you want a sturdy bottom, and also keep you from 
having to "sew" the opening closed.

How to Chain and Crochet on the Opposite Side of the Chain | Posh Pooch Designs

This is a question I get almost every week. 
So I decided to discuss it in this weeks live video chat.

We have a Jam Packed Video for you today!
 New yarns, New Patterns, New Videos - A Crochet Along
and 15 Second Dance Party!



See The Live Video Chat on my Youtube channel at This LINK


I also made a short little video to show you.
 Sometimes it is easier to see it, then to read about it.


I have heard it described as the "other side of the chain" 
and "the opposite side of the chain", 
But both are referring to the same technique.


See the Video on my Youtube channel at this LINK

First you chain the amount of chains the pattern is asking you to.

Next, you Single Crochet  across, 
starting in the 2nd chain from the hook.
Unless the pattern you are following, 
is stating a different stitch.

Lastly, turn and single crochet across the chain, 
on the opposite or other side of the chain, 
join to the 1st single crochet with a slip stitch.
