So I wanted a page, for me to reference when I need to with UK Crochet terms.
I was given a book a year or so ago by my nanna. Called “Crochet Stitches & Edgings” it was published by J&P Coats Ltd in 1976 with a re-print in 1980. So all pictures actually belong to them, I have taken some pictures of my own, but I’m unsure if they’re clear enough so will stick with the professional ones for now!
We will start with a chain stitch….
Slip Stitch…
Double Crochet…
Half Treble Crochet..
Treble Crochet..
Double Treble Crochet..
A list of abbreviations.

I usually crochet following American terms, however, I’ve got the 200 crocheet blocks book by Jan Eaton. It took my about 6 blocks until I realised that something must be different between English and American. Anyway, it’s fun to crochet in English. Maybe I start doing it in French …
Have a wonderful weekend
