Front Post Treble Crochet
Also known as: FPtr
A treble worked around the post of a stitch from the front. Tall enough to reach rows below and to cross over its neighbours — the stitch behind crochet cables.
How to Front Post Treble Crochet
1. Yarn over twice.
2. Insert hook from front to back to front around the post of the stitch.
3. Yarn over, pull up a loop.
4. (Yarn over, pull through 2 loops) 3 times.
💡 Pro Tips
Skip the stitch behind every FPtr so the count stays the same.
