- [Narrator] Sometimes you have a pattern
that tells you to work in the horizontal bar
in front or in the back
of your half double crochet stitches.
If you are working on a piece
where you're working rows back and forth,
after a row with half double crochet and you turn,
you will have the horizontal bars
in each stitch facing you.
If you look at your previous row,
you will see the two loops at the top of each stitch.
Working in the horizontal bar
of your half double crochet,
working half double crochet stitches.
You yarn over,
go through the
horizontal bar only,
not into the two loops at the top of your stitch,
just through that horizontal bar.
You yarn over, go through, yarn over,
and go through all three loops.
One more time.
You yarn over,
you go through the
horizontal bar only,
yarn over, yarn over and pull through
all three loops on your hook.
Working in the horizontal bars facing you,
leaving the two loops at the top of each stitch unworked
creates this ridge on the opposite side of your work.
