The CHDC, the chainless half-double crochet foundation is the half-sister of the CSC. They're related, but this one's a little rebellious. You may have to keep a closer eye on her.
But really, this is the same basic concept as the chainless single crochet, only worked with half-doubles. You'll have a little more yarning over to do, but with some focus, you can do it!
Practice, practice, practice! Try playing around by making chains with both csc and chdc - for funsies.
Understanding the abbreviations:
- YO: Yarn Over
- ch: Chain
- hk: Hook
- Rep: Repeat
play hard ... play hooky
