SPECIAL STITCHES/EXTRAS
Third Loops (3rd loops)
There are half double crochet (hdc) stitches included throughout this pattern. Half double crochet stitches have a 3rd loop that is located just below the front loops. When instructed to stitch into the 3rd loop, only insert your hook into this loop (ignoring the front and back loops). This creates a braided look on the opposite side of the garment.
Note: You will only be working into the third loops when the wrong side of the garment is facing you for this pattern.
Large Bean Stitch (lbs)
Note: lbsblo means to complete the large bean stitch in the back loops only
The large bean stitch will span over 2 stitches (so each large bean stitch counts as two stitches). Yarn over and insert your hk into the indicated stitch, yarn over and pull up to working height 4x total. Yarn over and pull through all of the loops on the hook, then single crochet 1 in the next stitch to complete 1 large bean stitch.
Note: The large bean stitch is modified for this pattern, if you are watching the instructional video on the Poppy Shop website, do not ch1, as shown in the video. All of the large bean stitches in this pattern are worked into the back loops only.
