Crocheting In The Back Bump Changes Everything

Crocheting In The Back Bump Changes Everything

"Crocheting in the back bump of the foundation chains is a simple adjustment that makes a big difference. By switching to this technique, you’ll create a smoother, sturdier foundation and give your crochet projects a polished finish without large holes. If you’ve ever noticed gaps between your first row and the chains, had your foundation row look sloppy or unusually wide compared to the rest of your project, or struggled to find the bottom of a chain to add a border, you’re not alone. These common crochet frustrations can make even seasoned crafters question their technique."
