IMPORTANT NOTE BEFORE STARTING TO CROCHET
End the row by slip stitching.
Most of my patterns use the 'end the row with slip stitch' technique. I feel
it makes the stitches more aligned and prevents the finished piece from
skewing to one side. Of course, you can also use the spiral technique.
I feel that some crocheters may not be familiar with the correct operation
of the finishing part, so please pay more attention to this section.
for the end the row :
1. To ensure proper end-of-row placement, you should use a stitch
marker to mark your first crochet stitch.
2. After that, thread the needle through --> take the yarn and pull it
through to execute the slip stitch. (images 2, 3, 4) After that, gently
pull to tighten it a bit.
3. Yarn over and thread it through again to make a chain stitch, and then
make the first crochet stitch again where you slipped into to finish the
row. (images 5~11)
Here are some notes after finishing a row: chain 1 for SC and HDC, chain 2 for DC, chain 3
for TR or TRC.
