[Nfb-krafters-korner] need help understanding how to crochet a slit stitch

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Are you taking the email crochet class?  They just described the chain  
stitch.
 
The chain stitch is used basically for a foundation stitch or the first row 
 stitch that other stitches will be worked into that.  A slip stitch in  
crochet is one basic use is to attach the end round  to the first stitch in  
the same round and then chain a couple of stitches to bring your new round up 
 high enough to create or begin your next round.  So the chain looks/feels  
the same, but is used for a different area and for a different reason.
 
Lisa Maria is  explaining what position the hook should be if you are  
right handed or left handed.
 
She is doing an excellent job.

I know  how to do the chain stitch, but not sure how the slipt stitch 
works, or how to  do it.  At my beginning stage of this, I'm unable to determine 
the  difference between the slit stitch and the chain stitch.  Someone tried 
 to show me the slit stitch today, but she crochets right handed and I 
crochet  left handed.  That's really strange since I'm right handed.  Thanks  for
 any input on  this.
