How to Half Double Crochet

     Half Double Crochet (hdc), is exactly what the name implies! It is half of the Double Crochet stitch.
     To hdc, chain a few extra stitches to make a turning chain (this will keep your work nice and even).


     Wrap the yarn around your crochet hook.


     Insert your crochet hook into the desired stitch and wrap the yarn again.



     Wrap the yarn around your hook once more and pull it through all three loops on your crochet hook.



     You have now completed a Half Double Crochet stitch! Continue for several rounds and your swatch will look like this:
