Half Double Crochet and Chain Uneven – Crochet Tutorial

The half double crochet and chain uneven, is a lace stitch combination I’m sure you’re going to love.

It’s a stitch I’ve used for my designs, such as the Top Down Winter Sweater, Sunshine Daydream Top & Top Down Summer Tee.

The stitch is characterized by having tiny holes, stacked on top of each other, almost zig-zagging.

I’ve also included a way for you to grab the printable version in a bundle, more details about that further down.
