[Nfb-krafters-korner] question for crocheters

[Blindhands at aol.com]

The post is the base of the stitch.  The DC has a longer post and this  is 
done usually on DC to create a different look and texture to the  stitch.

What is  ment by post in regards to crochet.  I just know single and  double
crochet in American terms.  Just making my first scarf.
Is  there a suggested beginners book out there to learn crochet stitches  
and
very easy patterns?

You are correct about pulling up the yarn from around  the post of the  
stitch  instead of doing it from the loop on  top of the stitch.   Depending
on 
if you go in front or in  back of the post this will make the bottom  of the
stitch you are  making push out or indent inward.

If  anyone wishes to write me off list regarding my  question, send an email
to  melissatucker4 at att.net I was looking at a  hat that a friend of mine was
crocheting and she was telling me about the  front post and back post
stitches.  Now, I have gotten some Braille  patterns from Horizons for the
Blind and some of their patterns call for  this stitch too.  I'm thinking
that mostly, these stitches are done  around the posts of previously double
crocheted rows.  Do I double  crochet around one of the posts of the dc
stitch, or am I missing the  concept of this all together?  I'm familiar
with dc, hdc, sc, and  tripple crochet stitch, but don't understand the 
front
and back posts  stitches.  thanks for any   help.
