Hi,
I came across the term “4 Double crochet Puff stitch” in an English crochet pattern and unfortunately can’t find a translation for it. Does anyone know what this is and/or how to crochet it? I’ve already looked up various English/German crochet term translations, but unfortunately haven’t found anything.

Hi there, I found the following page online:

http://newstitchaday.com/how-to-crochet-the-4-double-crochet-popcorn-stitch/

It’s called the “4 Double Crochet Popcorn Stitch” there, but I think it might be something like what you’re referring to.

Best regards, Carola

Hi, that could actually be this stitch. I’ll give it a try. Thank you so much—that really helped me.

Best regards, Birgit

Hi, “double crochet” corresponds to a German Stäbchen, and “puff” before it simply means a puff stitch. You’re supposed to crochet 4 of them. ;)

Hi,
you were right: it’s simply a puff stitch after 4 double crochets. Thanks a lot.
Best, Birgit
