Abbreviations and technique introduction

Understanding these abbreviations is crucial for following patterns accurately and producing the intended design. Different countries sometimes use different terminology for crochet stitches, so it is important to verify which crochet language (US or UK) the pattern is written in before beginning your project. Below we have did the same:

MR – Magic Ring: A technique to start crocheting in the round with a tightly closed center, ideal for amigurumi and top-down hats.
SC – Single Crochet (US) / Double Crochet (DC in UK): A basic crochet stitch that is short and dense, forming the foundation for many patterns.
INC – Increase: An increment where two stitches are crocheted into the same stitch from the previous row or round, used to widen the work.
DC – Double Crochet (US) / Treble Crochet (TR in UK): A taller stitch than a single crochet, creating a looser fabric with more drape.
TR – Treble Crochet (US) / Double Treble Crochet (DTR in UK): Even taller than a double crochet, these stitches are used when a significant height is needed.
HDC – Half Double Crochet (US) / Half Treble Crochet (HTC in UK): A stitch height that is in between a single crochet and a double crochet, offering a balance of tightness and stretch.
SLST – Slip Stitch: Used to join stitches, finish off a round, or move the working yarn across the surface of a project without adding height.
CH – Chain: The most basic crochet stitch used to create a foundation chain or as a spacer in a patterned crochet.
