| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| sl | sl st | Slip stitch | ss |  |
| sc | sc | Single crochet | dc |  |

The UK column is the abbreviation a UK-notation reader would use for the SAME stitch. Where it differs from the US one, following the pattern with UK meanings produces the wrong stitch height.

## How the notation reads

- `(sc, inc) x6` — repeat what is in the brackets 6 times — also written 6x (sc, inc)
- `3 hdc in one st` — all three stitches go into the SAME base stitch
- `FLO / BLO` — work into the front / back loop only, leaving the other loop free
