[Nfb-krafters-korner] crochet help?

[Theresa Taylor]

great questions. The loops or chains should hang down and as you practice they should be the same tension. There is always one loop on for chaining. As you get into the different knots....there are different number of loops.

You rotate your wrist quickly when you are using the crochet hook.  When the hook is up (meaning the slit of the crochet hook is up) the yarn is not able to fall out of the hook.  Make sure you are doing a flip of the wrist rotating the hook up so the yarn will not fall off the hook.
