Live With Sara - " Twisted Chains and New Yarn" | Posh Pooch Designs

"Live With Sara" 
of

This Week's Questions:
"How do I keep my chain from twisting?

Where is the 2nd chain from the hook? 

How do I count all those chains?".

See The Video on my Youtube Channel
 At This LINK



Do not count the loop on your hook as a chain.
Begin counting with the 1st ch off the hook.

To Keep Your chain from twisting, after you
 have chained about 15 chains, straighten
 the chain and slip it over the end of your
 crochet hook.

To keep count when you are chaining long
 chains, you can place a Stitch marker about
 every 20 chains.

A Stitch marker can be a safety pen, paper clip, 
or just a different color piece of yarn. 
Anything that you can mark the chain with.

Live Video Chat - Slip Knots and Slip Stitches | Posh Pooch Design

In Today's Live Video Chat we will be discussing
 the Difference between  a Slip Knot and  a Slip Stitch.

See The Live Video Chat on my Youtube Channel at this LINK

I received a message from a beginner crocheter who 
was confused and asked me to help her.
So I made a short Video to demonstrate.

See the Short Video on my Youtube Channel at this LINK

I also made some pictures to help illustrate.
 A Slip Knot is the knot we use when starting a crochet chain.

A Slip Stitch is a Crochet Stitch, it is called a slip stitch because you are slipping one loop,through another loop.


A Slip Stitch is also the stitch we use to join a round or circle.

 So you see, The Slip Knot and Slip Stitch are 2 different techniques and have 2 different purposes.
