Foundation Double Crochet (FDC) Tutorial | How to Crochet FDC Step-by-Step (Right Handed)

Описание: Please Note: This video is part of the Cairngorm Vest crochet tutorial series for right-handed makers. There is a separate video and playlist series for left-handed crocheters.

Learn how to crochet the Foundation Double Crochet (FDC) in this clear right-handed crochet tutorial.

Foundation stitches allow you to create the starting chain and first row at the same time, producing a flexible edge that works particularly well for crochet garments.

In this tutorial I demonstrate the stitch clearly so you can see exactly how the foundation row forms and how each stitch is built.

This technique is used in my Cairngorm Vest crochet pattern, a modern crochet garment inspired by classic heritage tank tops and designed to be practical, wearable clothing made with crochet.

The Cairngorm Vest
The Cairngorm Vest combines traditional crochet texture with thoughtful garment construction.
Techniques used in the pattern include:
• Granny-style cluster stitch fabric
• Join-As-You-Go double crochet ribbing
• Structured V-neck ribbing technique
• Increasing and decreasing within granny stitch patterns
• Clean garment seaming techniques
If you are planning to crochet the vest, the tutorials in this series will help you learn each technique step by step.
