Question
Luvyna
Hi everyone, I just started crocheting for the first time today and I am trying to learn the single crochet stitch. I know this is really dumb, but I can't figure out how to start the third row I've watched several YouTube videos and tried poking the hook through various loops but after a few stitches the pattern starts to look like a knot of of yarn and gets so tight that I can't even continue. I must be doing something wrong but I'm not sure what.
This is as far as I can get before everything gets messed up (or possibly I have already made a mistake without realizing it). I do one row of chains, another row of single crochet stitches, another chain, and I turn the work over, but I don't know where to put the hook to start the next stitch. When I watch videos of other people crocheting somehow when they turn over their work the hole that the hook needs to go through seems much more obvious. I'm not sure where to find it on mine or if maybe I did something wrong before so that it doesn't exist. Any help would be much appreciated!
