Double Crochet (UK) / Single Crochet (US) / Fast Maska (SWE)

Make ten chains, turn and insert the hook from the front under the the 2 top threads - it is customary to pick up the 2 top threads of each stitch unless otherwise specified.

Thread over and draw thread through.

There should be 2 loops on the hook.

Thread over again and draw through the 2 loops which will give you 1 loop left on the hook.

Continue the last two steps until end of the row.

Chain 1 and turn the work so that the reverse side is facing you. The extra 1 chain is there to make it easier to turn but it does not count as a stitch.

Insert hook under the 2 top loops of the first stitch (st), thread over and draw through st, thread over again and draw through the 2 loops on hook which will leave you with 1 loop on hook.

Repeat the last 2 steps until end of the row.
