Materials Needed

To create the crochet letter "B," you will need the following materials:

• Hook
• Yarn
• Scissors
• Needle

Make sure to choose a yarn color and hook size that you prefer. Let's move on to the first step of creating our crochet letter "B."

Step 1: Creating a Slip Knot and Chain of Twelve

To begin, create a slip knot and place it on your hook. Then, make a chain of twelve stitches. This chain will serve as the foundation for your crochet letter "B."

Step 2: Making Single Crochets in Row 1

In row 1, begin by making a single crochet stitch in the second chain from your hook. Continue making one single crochet stitch in each remaining chain until the end of the row. By the end of row 1, you should have a total of 11 single crochets.

Step 3: Making Single Crochets in Row 2

For row 2, chain one and turn your work. Make one single crochet stitch in each stitch across the row. By the end of row 2, you should still have a total of 11 single crochets.

Step 4: Creating Bubbles in Row 3

In row 3, chain one and turn your work. Make one single crochet in each of the first two stitches. Then, create a bubble stitch. To make a bubble stitch, work five incomplete double crochets into one stitch. Yarn over and pull through all six loops, then chain one to secure the bubble. Continue making single crochets and bubbles across the row following the pattern.

Step 5: Continuing with Bubbles and Single Crochets in Row 4

In row 4, chain one and turn your work. Make one single crochet in each stitch across the row. When you come across a bubble stitch from the previous row, make sure to crochet on top of it. Continue this pattern until the end of row 4.

Step 6: Making Single Crochets in Rows 5 and 6

For rows 5 and 6, repeat the same pattern as row 4. Chain one, turn your work, and make one single crochet in each stitch across the row. Don't forget to crochet on top of any bubbles from the previous row.

Step 7: Repeating Bubbles and Single Crochets in Row 7

In row 7, chain one and turn your work. Make one single crochet in each of the first two stitches. Then, create a bubble stitch following the same pattern as in row 3. Continue making single crochets and bubbles across the row.

Step 8: Finishing with Single Crochets in Rows 8 and 9

For rows 8 and 9, repeat the pattern from rows 5 and 6. Make one single crochet in each stitch across the row, including on top of any bubbles from the previous row.
