Techniques used in this stitch
UK / US crochet term:
Chain stitch – ch
Double crochet / Single crochet – dc/sc
Treble / Double crochet – tr / dc
Double treble / Treble – d.tr/tr
Quintuple treble – qn.tr: yarn over the hook 5 times, insert the hook in dc/sc. Yarn over the hook and pull the hook through st. You should now have 7 loops on your hook. Yarn over the hook and draw yarn through the first 2 loops on your hook. Repeat the preceding step more times until you have only 1 loop left on the hook.
