You are here: Home / Tutorials / Counting Crochet Stitches and Rows: Your Beginner Questions Answered
Are you tired of not understanding how in the world you should be counting crochet stitches and rows? Some aspects of crochet can be confusing when you're first starting out if you can't find the proper guidance. You're in the right place if you've been asking yourself, 'Does the turning chain at the beginning of the row count as a stitch?', 'Does the foundation chain count as a row?', or 'How do I count crochet rows in the round?'
Before I get started, I wanted you to be aware that the following crochet terms I use are in US terms. US and UK crochet terms are used differently. Here is a quick overview of the difference.
| US TERMS | UK TERMS |
| single crochet (sc) | double crochet (dc) |
| half double crochet (hdc) | half treble (htr) |
| double crochet (dc) | treble (tr) |
| treble (tr) | double treble (dtr) |
| double treble (dtr) | triple treble (trtr) |
