Slip knot / welcome to crochet council

 slip-knot

Hello everyone, am back! So here is my first tutorial and lets get into the fun! Today in my new tutorial, I will be able to learn how to start up crocheting by doing the slip knot. Slip knot is the first step in crocheting and it is the start point where the stitches can be done after it. After you are done with the slip knot, you will be able to learn the other main basic stitches such as single, double, half double and treble crochet stitches. 
The following steps will show you how its done:
  • Start by gathering your yarn and the crochet hook, then bend the yarn in the desired shape as seen in step-1
  • Pull the end of the yarn and bend it
  • Insert the bend part inside the knot 
  • Insert your crochet hook inside the loop (that is fit inside the loose knot)
  • Moving on to the last step, push the knot to tighten it until its suitably fit inside the hook, but make sure that is the loop around the hook isn't tight nor too loose so that it would be easy while crocheting.
  • Now cut-off the excess yarn at the end.
Make sure you are thorough with all these steps, then you can learn more stitches in the next up-coming tutorials.
