Hi Friends! In this how to crochet post I teach you how to crochet a chain. A Chain is one of the very beginning steps when learning how to crochet. The video below includes steps for how to Slip Knot, Yarn Over, and Chain. (In this order)
I decided to make all three of these crochet techniques into one video tutorial because of their relation to each other.
