Why don't you try a smaller hook? Just drop down a couple of sizes and give
it a try.

Thanks Carol.  I have an idea what we are doing, but might have questions
later.
Finally getting the hang of crochet!!!
Now wish I could go to a smaller hook.

Karol thank you for sharing with me as well, I'm new to all of this and
don't understand it, but I will use Nella's idea and make a file so when I'm
ready I can look over it and try to make something too.

Thank you Nella for that great idea.

Carol, thank you so much.  I think I'm probably not really ready for this,
but now have a better understanding.  I'm making a file of crochet notes and
will add this.  I will keep practicing and maybe someday I can actually make
something.

Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge.

Nella

Hi, I thank all of you that came to the chat tonight.  I really had fun
sharing this stitch with you and I hope you find it useful.  Below you will
find the written instructions.

Carol O.

Single Crochet Foundation Chain

Place a slip knot on your hook and chain 2.  (1 loop on hook) Insert hook
into the first chain you made.  Yarn over and pull up a loop.  (2 loops on
hook) Place a stitch marker on the loop you just put on your hook, this will
be the one closest to the hook end.  Yarn over and pull through one loop.
(2 loops on hook) Yarn over and pull through both loops.  (1 loop on hook.
You have just completed one chain and one single crochet.  you will now
repeat the same process except this time you will insert your hook into the
stitch which has the marker on it.  Yarn over and pull up a loop and put a
stitch marker on this loop.  Yarn over and pull through first loop on hook.
Yarn over and pull through both loops on hook.  Second chain and single
crochet completed.  
You will begin to see the chains forming on the left side and the single
crochet forming on the right.
