How Do You Back Post Double Crochet?
Like the front post double crochet stitch, the back post adds texture to crochet projects. It pulls the post of the stitch backward, and when used with the front post stitch, creates a thickly textured work. It can even be used to create what resembles knitted cables. Begin with a row of double stitches. Turn, chain 2 and work one double stitch in the second stitch of the next row. Choose which stitches will be back post stitches. You can work back posts in every stitch, at regular intervals or in a pattern of several back posts and several regular stitches. Yarn over. Insert your crochet hook into the back of the previous row, between the posts of the stitch before and the stitch which will be the back post stitch. Insert your hook between the posts from front to back, between the stitch which will be the back post stitch and the next stitch. Yarn over. Pull the yarn even with the current row and complete a double stitch.
