We follow the episodes of the crochet chain from A to Z, and today’s episode is one of the most important episodes, and there is almost no absence of crochet work, which is the increase stitching, so when you make a sweater, for example, you must know how to increase the stitches to give you a widening of the hip, so follow with me To learn more crochet techniques.
Increment stitches
It is a group of stitches bearing specific symbols used to increase the number of work stitches, and thus expand it, it is possible to use them in the filler stitch, the half column stitch, the twist column stitch, the two-fold column stitch, or …… means any basic stitch that has a height that we can We use it to increase stitches or expand crochet work.
The increase can be by adding one stitch to the existing stitch in the line or two or three stitches emerging from the same place.
Note: You can also use these stitches for other than the purpose of the increase, and this is shown by Batroun, and I will explain it, God willing, with pictures.
The increase in the padding stitch
Stitch increase in the padding stitch
The name in English is single crochet increase
The abbreviation in Batroun, written as se inc
Drawn Batron stitch symbol
The way this stitch works is not different from the filler stitch, but rather, where the needle is inserted is different.
How to make the stitch
The increment can be at the beginning of the line, or it can be the middle of the line.
- If the increment is at the beginning of the line, then you must create the chain of height.
- You are making a regular fill stitch (you can review how to make a fill stitch).
- Then you make another stitching stitch in the same location as the first stitch.
- On the next line: You will stitch over the new stitch, and you will notice that the crochet work begins to expand.
- If you want to increase the number of stitches while you are working or in the middle of the line, there is no need to create a spike chain.

This way we increase the stitch in each stitch from the previous line, and you can increase two stitches in each stitch from the previous line, and the stitch code differs in this case.
Increase two stitches in the filler stitch
Drawn stitch symbol in Batroun
How to make the stitch
The same way as the previous stitch, but we make another stitch in the same place, so the number of filler stitches that come out from one place becomes three.

Increase the padding stitches at the beginning of the line
Increase the padding stitches in the center of the line
Increase the padding stitches at the end of the line
Pay attention to the image We do not create the fill stitch over the chain because it is not a stitch.
Increase by the half column stitch
Increase the stitch in the half column stitch
The name in English half double crochet increase
The abbreviation in Batroun, written hdc inc
Drawn stitch symbol in Batroun
The way this stitch works is not different from the regular half-column stitch, but rather the location of the needle insertion.
How to make the stitch
- If the increment is at the beginning of the line, then you must make (2) chain as the stitch height.
- Do the regular half column stitch (you can see how to make the half column stitch)
- Then you stitch another half-column in the same location as the first stitch.
- If you want to increase the number of stitches in the middle of the line, there is no need to make (2) chain height.

Increase two stitches in the half column stitch
Drawn stitch symbol in Batroun
How to make the stitch
The same way as the previous stitch, but we make another stitch in the same place, so the number of stitches coming out from one place becomes three.
Increase the stitch by roll column stitch
The name in English is double crochet increase
The abbreviation in Batroun, written as dc inc
Drawn Batron stitch symbol
The method of making this stitch is not different from the method of making the column stitch with a regular twist, but rather the place of insertion of the needle differs.
How to make the stitch
- If the increment is at the beginning of the line, then you must create (3) chains that represent the height.
- Do the column stitch in a regular twist (you can see how to make a column stitch in a roll)
- Then you are stitching a column with another roll in the same location as the first stitch.
- On the next line: You will stitch over the new stitch.
- If you want to increase the number of stitches while working or in the middle of the line, you do not need to make (3) chains heights.
How to make stitch pictures
As I mentioned earlier, these stitches can come in Batroun without being used in order to increase the number of stitches. Note with me the following picture of Batroun:
When we stitch the increase in general without the aim of expanding the work, we leave a certain number of stitches of chains in the first line, we do not work with stitches, and the pattern determines the number of chains that we should leave, and thus we get work with straight edges without the use of the stitch To increase the number of stitches.
V-stitch
The name in English is V stitch
The abbreviation in Batroun, written V st
The symbol in Batroun, drawn
How to make the stitch
This stitch is the same as the increase stitch in the column stitch with a roll, but the difference is that we make two chains between the two columns.
If it is at the beginning of the line:
- We make (4) chains, three of which represent the stitch height.
- From the base chain in the spike chains we make a column.
- Then we leave a certain number of strings from the previous line, and the pattern determines the number of strings.
- And we make the next stitch (two columns from the same place, two chains between them).
The second line:
If the pattern is completely dependent on this stitch, then we must enter the needle in the next line with the space formed by the presence of the two strings, note with me the following picture, pay attention to where the stitch came out in the second line.
And it can come with one string between the two columns.
How to make the stitch
If it is at the beginning of the line:
- We make (3) chains that represent the height of the column.
- We leave a series from the previous line.
- We make two columns in the same place, with a chain between them.
- Then we leave two chains and do the next stitch.
The second line:
- We make three strings that represent the stitch height.
- Then we work a stitch in the blank above the chain between the two columns in the previous line.
The stitch shape in Batroun
There is a third shape of the stitch, which we find in petrons, consisting of: a column with a roll, then three chains, then a column with a roll
The stitch shape in Batroun
Increase two columns in a column stitch with a twist
The same column stitch with a roll, but from one stitch in the previous line we produce three stitches.
The symbol in Batroun, drawn
And the place of insertion of the needle in the stitch may differ, so we insert the needle into the space, that is, between two stitches in the previous line, and the Batroun symbol differs so, notice how the symbol is open from the bottom, while the previous symbol is closed from the bottom.

Increase Three Columns In A Roll Column Stitch
Fan stitch
The name in English: fan stitch
The abbreviation in Batroun al-Maqtoub fan
The symbol in Batroun, drawn
It is a stitch of the increase in the column, but it has more than three columns, where it is four, five, seven or nine (I notice that in batons they come in more odd numbers), and this stitch is used extensively in patterns, and it gives very beautiful results.
Tilted fan

How to make the stitch
This stitch is another fan-stitch variation that has a line diagonal.
If it is at the beginning of the line:
- We make a spike chain.
- Filler stitch.
- We do (3) series.
- Then we make three columns coming out from the same place.
- In order for it to be diagonal, we leave four stitches from the previous line.
- We make a fill stitch on the fifth stitch from the previous line.
If the stitch is in the middle of the line:
There is no need to make the chain and stuffing stitch. We follow the steps from the third step.
The second line:
Steps 1 and 2 are not required, but the final filler stitch is located above the three chains in the previous line.
Note: It is necessary to know the method of some stitches in the second line, in order to keep the number of stitches without increasing or decreasing, and thus the edges of the work should be straight.
Note: This explanation is for a work that is completely based on this stitch, but if this stitch came in Batroun, it contains symbols for other stitches, then the Batron should be adhered to.
Notice with me the difference between Batroun I and this Batroun.
In this pattern, the oblique stitch was not fixed with a filler stitch, but rather it was secured with a column stitch, so the result is completely different.
The diagonal stitch is used in colored threads, and it gives a great result, and the work is like colored mats.
Five-column fan stitch
How to make the stitch
In the event that we do a complete job using this stitch, the following steps should be followed:
If it is at the beginning of the line:
- We do one series.
- We make one filler stitch.
- We leave a number of strings (Batroun determines how many strings we should leave), or in general we leave two strings.
- We make five columns with a roll coming out of one chain.
- We leave the same number of chains.
- We make a filler stitch.
The second line:
- We make three strings that represent the stitch height.
- Then we make two columns coming out of the same place.
- We make a stitching stitch over the third column stitch of the previous line.
- And the next stitch we insert the needle into the filler stitch from the previous line.
- And we get out of them five columns.

Of course, it is possible to work the stitch in a space between two stitches, note the following picture:
Open shell stitch
English name: Shell stitch
The abbreviation in Batroun, written sh
The symbol in Batroun, drawn
How to make the stitch
This stitch, its method of work, is based on augmentation, but it is not used for augmentation, and we find many shapes in Batroun, but the principle in all its forms is the same, and it is based on:
Column stitch chain stitch column stitch
Of course, the number of stitches varies from one shape to another, and I will explain most of the shapes that appear in Batroun, the most important of which is the shape of the previous symbol.
If the stitch is at the beginning of the line:
- We make (3) chains that represent the height of the column.
- Then on the third chain of height chains we insert the needle and make a shaft with a turn.
- And in the same place a second column with a turn.
If the stitch is in the middle of the line:
- We create a column stitch with a regular roll.
- In the same place, stitch a column with another roll and a third one.
- Two (2) series.
- From the same place where the two previous stitches came out, we make a column stitch in a roll.
- In the same place we stitch a column with another roll and a third one.
The stitch shape in Batroun
The shell stitch may consist of (3) columns by roll, then (1) chain, then number (3) pillars by roll, and all the columns come out from one place.
The shell stitch may consist of (2) columns by roll, then (1) chain, then number (2) pillars by roll, and all the columns come out from one place.
This is with regard to the increase stitches, and there is a special lesson for tapering stitches, so I hope that you follow me in this series to learn more about the secrets of crochet and the types of stitches.
