THE HASSLE-FREE CHAINLESS CHAIN

The new project requires a chain of 53; the next step is to slip stitch and connect the chain. You do exactly so! Next, you must double crochet across the chain for two rows. You do that and discover that the foundation chain has a few drooping stitches. You pull all your hard work out, start over and the same situation is upon you...STOP IT. Start your beloved project with the chainless chain. Drooping will be a thing of the past!

CHAINLESS CHAIN INSTRUCTIONS:

▪Make a slip knot, chain 3, double or single crochet into the first stitch, yarn over and crochet behind the double stitch that was formed. You will find that a stitch was created...just like magic. Continue this pattern until the desired length is created.

You will love it & "GOODBYE" to drooping stitches!!
