When you look at the directions usually given for making crocheted and knitted articles you will find the names of the stitches abbreviated.

Say “2 s-c’s” or “3 d-c’s”; not 2 single crochets, or 3 double crochets.

In making Treble Crochet make about 15 chain stitches. Skip 3 chains. Wrap the yarn around the needletwice, before putting hook through the chain stitch. Wrap, and draw yarn through chain stitch. Wrap, and draw yarn through 2 loops. Wrap, and draw yarn through 2 loops. Wrap, and draw through 2 loops.
