Chain Stitch (ch)

The chain stitch provides the foundation for just about any piece of crocheting you are going to do. You start with a loop that is held together with a slip knot. Put the loop on your crochet hook, yarn over, pull a loop through the loop on your hook, yarn over, pull a loop through the loop on your hook, and just keep repeating until you have the number of chain stitches that you want.
