    I love starting a pattern with foundation stitches - whether it's single crochet, half double crochet, or double crochet. And recently, I showed you how to combine a variety of these stitches in one row!

    But what about when that first row also includes increases and decreases? You can do that too! I'll show you how to increase and decrease with crochet foundation stitches - sc, hdc, dc, and beyond!
