How Do I Make Hairpin Crochet?

Set your hairpin loom so that the pins are 10cm apart. The following steps will show you how to work hairpin lace. Please note that the instructions in the pattern on page 27 require you to offset the line of dc sts, so that there is 2cm to the right of the dc ‘spine’ and 8cm to the left. Make a slipknot on your hook, leaving a long tail.

Step 1 With the hook in front of the loom, take the yarn around the right prong and to the back-left of the loom.

Step 2 Yrh and pull through the slipknot. Tighten the slipknot. You will have made your first hairpin loop around the right prong. Keep the hook as central as you can, between the two prongs, as you work.

Step 3 Keeping the working loop on the hook, lift hook up and over the right prong, so it’s at the back of the loom. You can let go of the hook, but keep tension on the yarn.
