British vs American English Crochet Terms

When you are starting some new project at first you should check where the pattern is from so you know what abbreviation really means. Sometimes it’s very confusing, especially for a newbie crocheter. Unfortunately crochet patterns are not universal and British crochet terms and American terms use different names for the same stitches. Check the table below to see the difference :)

    I have found your page today, Sunday 9th January 2022, thank you for this information, which is very helpful. I am British so I use British crochet terms. Your patterns are very good, I would like to do the crochet Granny Square Jacket for Spring.
