When it comes to knitting or crocheting, two terms you may come across are 'yarn over' and 'pop corn'. But what do these terms actually mean and how do you execute them?
A 'yarn over' is a technique used in knitting and crocheting to create an extra stitch and make an eyelet hole in your work. To perform a yarn over, simply bring the yarn over the needle or hook from back to front before making the next stitch. This creates a loop on your needle or hook that will be worked into on the next row or round. Yarn overs are commonly used in lace patterns to create decorative holes and intricate designs.
On the other hand, 'pop corn' is a term used in crochet to create a raised, textured stitch that adds dimension to your project. To make a pop corn stitch, work a set number of double crochet stitches (usually 4 or 5) into the same stitch or space. Then, remove the hook from the loop and insert it from front to back through the first double crochet of the set. Grab the dropped loop with the hook and pull it through the first double crochet to create a raised bump on the right side of your work.
Both yarn overs and pop corn stitches can add interest and flair to your knitting or crochet projects. Whether you're looking to create delicate lace patterns or add texture to a blanket or sweater, mastering these techniques can take your crafting to the next level.
So next time you come across the terms 'yarn over' or 'pop corn' in a pattern, don't be intimidated. With a bit of practice and patience, you'll soon be incorporating these techniques into your projects with ease.
Remember, knitting and crocheting are all about experimentation and creativity, so don't be afraid to try new things and push your skills to new heights. Happy crafting!
