CROCHET CONVERSION CHART
US/UK Crochet Terms.
US and UK crochet terms are different, but they use the same terms to describe
different stitches. Confused? So were we. Here is a conversion chart. Now
all you have to do is determine whether your pattern is a US or UK pattern, and
then you can make sure you are using the correct stitches. Most patterns
have a notice on them to say who made the patterns, and where it was printed.
This should be an indication of the terminology used.
| US | UK |

| single crochet (sc) | double crochet (dc) |
| double crochet (dc) | treble (tr) |
| half double crochet (hdc) | half treble (htr) |
| triple crochet (trc) | double treble (dtr) |
| slip stitch (sl st) | slip stitch (sl st) |
