This photo tutorial will show you how to work a front post double crochet 3 stitches together stitch. This is abbreviated FPdc3tog and is worked over 3 stitches to decrease the number of stitches in a given part of a crochet pattern.. This stitch can also be worked all in the same stitch to create a cluster stitch for texture. So instead of moving to the next stitch when you repeat from * to * it can be worked in the same stitch for the repeat to make a cluster stitch of three double crochets.
