Made up stitch? Help!

[atlantisflygirl]

I figure I must have learned it somewhere, but now I can't figure out what stitch it might be! I'm a beginner and I'm making a scarf for my mom.

 

At the end of a row, I chain two and then turn the work (clockwise). I work into the third (?? I'm still working on that bit. But I work into the first v), yo & pull through the first stitch so I have two loops on the hook, yo and pull through two loops on the hook, repeat. The stitch is pretty at least!

 

TIA for any help!

Welcome to Crochetville!

 

It's called an extended single crochet (exsc).  You're making a chain and sc all in one stitch. 

 

This is also how foundation single crochet (fsc) is done.  FSC can be used to replace a chain foundation and sc first row.  FSC creates a more fluid and even bottom edge than a chain foundation and sc first row.
