oh hello and welcome back to day 12 of the crochet society advent crochet along
today we are going to be continuing to build on this side of the work
we are going to be using colour 12 and we are also going to be using colour 11
as well so make sure that you have those handy we're going to start off row one with colour 12
and we're going to do a standing double crochet into this very first stitch so go ahead and get
a slip knot on your crochet hook with this colour and meet me back in a moment okay so now you have
your slip knot on your hook you're going to go into that very first stitch yarn over pull through
you'll have two loops on your hook and then yarn over pull through two loops and that is your
standing double crochet that is a UK term in the US a double crochet is known as a single crochet
so this will be a standing single crochet i would suggest that you go ahead and place a
stitch marker into your very first stitch to keep note of where that is just in case you lose track
so for day 12 we're going to be doing overlay mosaic so we've joined our new colour and then we
have a pattern repeat we're going to do one raised treble front post but this is going to be around
the treble two rows below so if we have a look we have our next stitch and then just below we have
a treble crochet so we're going to go yarn over we will do a raised treble front post so we're
going to go from the front to the back and then to the front again around this post two rows down
yarn over pull through you'll have three loops on the hook yarn over pull through two and yarn
over pull through two and there you have your treble crochet so in the US that is known as
a double crochet we're then going to do five back loop double crochets so we're going to
skip the stitch that we've just worked into and then go into the next stitch instead of
going into the full stitch we're only going to work into the back stitch so one two three four
and five and then we're going to repeat from this raised treble front post so i'll just show you the
repeat again we're going to yarn over go from front to back to front of this treble two rows
down yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two yarn over pull through two ignore the stitch
that we've just worked over and do five double crochets into the back loop only one two three
four and five you're going to repeat that all the way across until you have two stitches remaining
so go ahead pause the video work those stitches and then meet me back in a moment okay so at
the end of this row when you have two stitches remaining you're going to do one raised treble
front post around that next stitch and then finish off with a double crochet into that last stitch
and then we are going to fasten off
and then we're going to join colour 11 in this very first stitch with a standing double crochet
so go ahead and do that and then meet me back once you're ready okay so once you've
done your standing double crochet we're ready to get started with row two we're going to do a
back loop double crochet in each stitch all the way across so we miss this first stitch and then
go into the next with a back loop only double crochet in each stitch all the way to the end
so go ahead pause the video work that until you have one stitch remaining
and then meet me back once you're ready okay so once you've worked your way to the end and you
have one stitch remaining you're going to do a normal double crochet into the end those normal
stitches into the end rather into going into the back loop just help with the sturdiness of
the blanket itself once you have done that you can go ahead and fasten off your yarn
and then you want to attach colour 12 with a standing double crochet to your very first
stitch so go ahead and get prepared for that and then meet me back once you're ready okay so for
row three when you have your standing double crochet joined and using colour 12 we're ready
to get going with the pattern repeat so we're going to do three front loop treble two downs
so we're going to find that next stitch and then go down to find that front loop we'll do one
and then two
and three we'll then do one back loop double crochet so we're going to miss those
three stitches that we've just worked over and do a back loop double crochet followed by
two front loop treble two downs so find the next stitch go down to the front loop one and two
so then you'll repeat that pattern repeat again so i'll just show you that once more
we'll do three front loop treble crochet two down that's one two and three
a back loop double crochet and then two front loop treble two down one
and two so you'll repeat that all the way across until you have two stitches remaining go ahead
and pause the video and then meet me back once you're ready okay so once you've worked your way
across on that row we're going to go ahead and do a front loop treble 2 down in that first stitch
and then a double crochet into that last stitch then we can go ahead and fasten off
and you want to join colour 11 with a standing double crochet into the very first stitch of this
row so go ahead and do your stitch into that first stitch and then meet me back once you're ready
okay so once you've done your standing double crochet we're ready to move on to
row four and this is just going to be a really simple row we're going to do
one back loop only double crochet in each stitch all the way along so work one in each stitch
leaving your last stitch remaining and then meet me back once you're ready okay so once
you've worked your way to the end you're going to do one double crochet into that last stitch
and fasten off your yarn then for row five you're going to go ahead and take colour 12 and join with
a standing double crochet into that first stitch so go ahead and get prepared for that and meet
me back once you're ready okay so for row five we've done our standing double crochet and then
we're going to start our pattern repeat so it's going to start from here so we're going to do two
front loop treble two down so yarn over find that front loop from two rows down and work one and two
we'll miss those two stitches and then we're going to do three back loop double crochets one two
and three and then we're going to finish the repeat by doing one front loop treble two down
so that is your pattern repeat go ahead and repeat that until you have two stitches remaining two
front loop treble two downs three back loop double crochets followed by one front loop
treble two down so work your way across and then meet me back once you're ready okay so at the end
of this row when you have two stitches left we're going to do a front loop treble crochet two down
and then do a double crochet into that very last stitch and you can go ahead and fasten off
for row six you're going to go ahead and use colour 11 join with the standing double crochet
and then meet me back once you are prepared okay so for row six after your standing double crochet
you're then going to do a back loop double crochet into each stitch all the way along
so go ahead pause the video work those back loop double crochets to the last stitch you want to do
a double crochet into the end of the row and then you want to go ahead and join your colour 12 with
a standing double crochet into that very first stitch so this row is the same as we've done for
row four and row two so go ahead work that row meet me back for row seven with your
standing double crochet in colour twelve in this first stitch okay so now you've done row six
and you've joined colour 12 with a standing double crochet into your first stitch we're ready
for row seven so after this standing double crochet we're going to start the pattern repeat
and that pattern repeat is one front loop treble two down
followed by two back loop double crochets so you skip the stitch that you've just worked over
and then do two back loop double crochets and then you're going to repeat that all
the way across so front loop treble two down two back loop double crochets
so the way it will work out is that it goes into the centre of these stitches and then also into
the centre just here so go ahead pause the video work that pattern repeat until you
have two stitches remaining and then meet me back once you're ready okay so once you have
those last two stitches remaining you're going to do one front loop treble two down
and then finish off with a double crochet into that last stitch and then fasten off
so that is the end of day 12 for your crochet society advent crochet along
