Long
Stitches Long Single Crochet (LSC) Here's another example of the long stitch. This one is a little longer, going down two rows rather than one. Long Double Crochet (LDC) as used in Mosaic Crochet. The dc is worked three rows down and in various positions. Here is one worked as part of an edging with stitches worked over the previous stitches but into the center, not into a stitch. This is basically the same, but you will make a double crochet instead of a single. You could even use a triple for the diagonal stitches. YO, insert your hook on the row indicated, and work a double crochet as normal but bringing your loop up to same height as previous stitches. This stitch will give a pretty accent to your work, especially if worked in a different color. For example, you might work a piece in white and use a different color for each row using long stitch. Since you are not going to be using every stitch, you will need to carefully plan your foundation chain.
