I have watched several videos on how to do this foundation stitch, and your's is the best I have come across. You make it so simple to do and I now feel confident I am doing it correctly. Thank you very much for a simple tutorial.

Your fsc video is the first I've been able to understand! Thank you for making it so clear where the hook goes 😊

I like the sleek appearance of this foundation. Thank you so much for explaining which loop to go through! I only need to be shown to learn it, but all of the other video people go so fast, I cannot see what they did. You explained how to find where to grab the stitch. Thank you!!

I was ready to tear my hair out then I found your tutorial and I can't say thank you enough. The foundation chain is no longer a mystery 😊

[desharaeley]

I find myself always doing the foundation chains now because it gives a good look if the pattern allows.

I just spent two hours trying to understand someone else's tutorial and got yours in 3 mins. why did I not come to you first. your the man!

[katherinelewis]

I'm never too old to learn something new. I've tried the other way by inserting the hook and drawing up one and then one, but this way is so much easier. Thanks Mikey.

Thank you for another "Aha!" moment I always need to look up foundation stitches before I do them, I think I will remember this time.

[meyresiqueira]

Thank you Mikey. I tried this so many times but I couldnt understand how to do it. The way you explain it is perfect

[kathymoore]

I just watched this and it was extremely helpful vs another one that popped up where she changed her stitch mid way. Mikey is the best!!!!

[darlingdraven]

I've been watching videos on the foundation single crotchet and all the others before this have been--not only weirdly different--but confusing. Thanks so much for this video!

[katherinepotter]

This is the first tutorial for a crochet stitch I've ever needed to use.  It was so well done, thank you, Mikey!  Clear, concise, made it a piece of cake :)

[michellemunn]

I knew there would be a video for this!! I just saw a psytern cone upbon fb yarnspirations for a big cowl cardigan thing that used this. I looked at a couple other videos and couldnt quite get it. Mikey to the rescue!!!

[pdchaa]

This is a wonderful tutorial. Very easy to understand. Thank you so much!

This is actually the slip stitch foundation chain. The single crochet is made when you chain 1 before drawing through 2.
