Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. This stitch is not only a pattern stitch, it is the name of the project you could be attempting to create. It is also the name of the particular type of hook. What is the name of this stitch?

Answer: Afghan stitch

The afghan stitch is usually done with an afghan hook. This stitch may also be referred to as Tunisian Crochet. It all begins with a foundation chain. If you wish to make a item (blanket, sweater) with this stitch, it will result in a warm, dense pattern.

Answer: Bullion Stitch

The thickness of the Bullion stitch depends on the number of times you wrap the yarn around the hook. Initially, you may need to move the "loops" (the wraps around the hook) by using your fingers. The more you practice, the easier it will become. This stitch may be used to create tassels or a fringe.

Answer: Cable Stitch

The cable stitch is often called the "around the post stitch". If you wish to add depth to a project, this is not a difficult stitch to master and may be used in tandem with other stitches to create a one-of-a-kind project.

Answer: Double crochet stitch

While the double crochet stitch may appear to be complex, once it is mastered, you can create sweaters, afghans, baby sets, and other items. Patterns may be created by skipping stitches or utilizing the around the post, or cable, stitches.

Answer: End off

If your project is made with one color of yarn, hiding the "tails" is easy. Always ensure you are weaving the tails into the wrong side of your project. Remember the tail will consist of more than one color if you are making a multi-color project. When there are more colors, I will hide one color at a time by placing it with the same color. Using a slightly smaller hook, or a yarn needle, will make this step easier.

Answer: Filet stitch

Filet stitch can be used to create designs of flowers, names, and other items. This stitch is often used in making dollies or place mats or napkins. It involves creating, or following, a grid pattern and keeping track of your stitches.

Answer: Gauge

Ensuring you have the correct gauge is very important. By creating a test swatch of your project, you are determining if you need to use a smaller, or larger, hook in order to end up with the correct size for your afghan, sweater, hat, socks, gloves, scarves and so on. Failing to take the time to do this one step may result in an item which is too small or too large. If that happens, you have the fun of taking your entire project apart and starting over.

Answer: Half double stitch

The half double stitch is great when you want to make a project which is less open. You may also alternate this stitch with the double stitch as well as others. I use it to make a border around an afghan.

Answer: Increase stitch

Increasing is not as difficult as it may appear. It is usually done in sweaters, hats, gloves or on special pattern afghans.

Answer: Joining stitch

Technically, the joining stitch can be considered a single crochet. However, in a true single crochet, a yarn over is not done prior to putting the hook in the stitch to be worked.
