Question
gemlovesjasper
The FDC (Foundation Double Crochet) to me is a trendy way for people to economize their efforts with crochet. I have heard what a great time saver it is...blah blah. I am not impressed. How stretchy the resulting chain is.. I never had or have a problem with my foundation chain being too tight. The patterns now come out with only this way of starting their projects. I don't think its right to do this. If you have trouble with your foundation row being too tight ...than this may be your solution. But what I want to know is how to start projects without this method. I have tried to work it, but I just end up with a hot mess on my hands and tears in my eyes cause its just one more thing I cant do in crochet. I don't need anymore problems.
