Question
Eddiethecrocheter
Hi,
I have been trying to learn how to single crochet for almost 2 weeks now, but no matter what I do, the square I'm trying to make has millions of holes, not a nice neat piece like I see in the hundreds of tutorials I have watched. Ugh.
I have cheap average yarn, and have been using the 5mm, 6mm and 7mm hooks but each produced these dreaded holes. I squeeze the hook under the top 2 stitches, yarn over, pull through the first 2 loops on hook, yarn over again and pull through the last loop on hook. Am I supposed to only yarn over once, or is this a different technique, slip stitching possibly?
Thanks for any assistance, I really want to get this right before moving on, please refer to the attached pic to see the holes.
