Crochet Standing Stitches - No more chains! This technique is used for colour-changes so that you don't need to attach the new colour and then chain up to get to the right height.

Pattern: Step 1: With color A chain a multiple of 5 + 2-- for this project the creator chose 25+ 2, so she made a chain of 27 Step 2: sc into the second chain from the hook, ch 5, sc into the 5th chain from the hook Repeat directions in * until you have completed the row-- this will create loops-- the demo pattern made 5 loops because the multiple of 5 was 25 Step 3: With color B, attach at the first sc made with color A. Ch 4. 2 dc into 3rd chain of top portion of the first loop. Ch 1. 2 dc into the same chain-- This creates a "shell". Repeat directions in between until you have completed the row. 1 triple crochet into color A. Step 4: Flip over work. Fold up color A loops to match with color B shells. Using color A, ch 4. 2 dc into the hole made by both the color A loop and the color B shell. Ch 1. 2 dc into same hole. Repeat directions between until you have completed the row. 1 triple crochet into both color A and color B. Step 5: Using color B, ch 5. 1 sc into gap between color A and color B-- this creates one loop. Repeat directions between until you have completed the row. Step 6: Flip work over. Using color B, ch 4. Fold up color B loops to match with color A shells. 2 dc into hole made by color B loops and color A shells. Ch 1. 2 dc into same hole-- this creates one shell. Repeat directions between * until you have completed the row. 1 triple crochet into both color A and color B. Step 7: Using color A crochet loops all the way across, then crochet shells all the way across. Step 8: Using color B, crochet loops all the way across, then crochet shells all the way across. Step 9: Repeat steps 7 and 8 until you have completed your project. Finish off and weave in ends.
