Find unintended stitch-height changes

Compare yarn-overs and pull-through stages with the stitch key. A correct top count can still hide an incorrect shorter or taller stitch.

Before you start

Stop and record the last correct reference point. Support loose loops or damaged ground before removing anything, and reproduce the fault on a spare sample if possible.

Try this example

In a row of US double crochet, mark a low patch and trace each stitch body. Check for half-double crochet or a terminology switch before adjusting the hook.

Check your result

• Compare the repaired area with an undamaged neighbor after relaxing or finishing the sample. Recount the boundary before continuing beyond the repair.
• A repair may remain visible. If the foundation is weak, reinforcing or replacing a section can be more reliable than hiding the surface fault.
