Puff stitch with 3 dc
This is a really easy and basic stitch that looks great in many crochet projects. So once you've learned it you can use it again and again :) I am not really a video-person so here is a written explanation:
Basically, you make 3 unfinished (only the first half) double crochet in one stitch, yarn over once more and draw yarn through all 4 loops that remained on your hook.
Step 1: Yarn over (yo), insert hook in st, yo, draw yarn through st, yo, draw yarn trough 2 loops (first unfinished dc, 2 loops remain on your hook)
Step2: Repeat Step 1 two more times, in the same stitch (3 unfinished dc, 4 loops remain on your hook)
Step 3: Yo, draw yarn through all four loops on your hook and your first puff stitch is finished :)

Instructions(US)
- This beanie is worked in closed rounds so each round ends with a sl st
- Sometimes the round starts with a puff-st. This starting puff-st is worked as a regular puff-st, but instead of the first unfinished dc, you make ch2.
- The rounds are sometimes described in reference to the previous round, so for example "sc in next 2 sc" means, that you make sc in next two sc from the previous round.
