Loop stitches crochet
3 Chain,
*Insert hook into front loop of the Single Crochet stitch, catch both yarns and pull them through the front loop.
There should be 3 strands of yarn on the hook.
Yarn over and pull the yarn through all the 3 strands*.
Repeat to * .
The working is similar to as crochet a SC (single crochet), the only thing that you have to do is to wrap the yarn onto your finger and pull both strands through the stitch….. watch the video for better illustration.
