The slip knot is the very first step in crochet. It is how you attach your yarn to the hook so you can begin your project. Without a slip knot, you cannot start your chain stitch or any crochet project.
In this video, you will see three different ways to make a slip knot. You only need to choose one method that feels easiest for you.
👉 Watch the video below and practice until you feel comfortable.

Tip: There is no wrong way—just use the method that feels easiest for your hands.
Now that you’ve learned how to make a slipknot, you’re ready for the next basic crochet stitch. The chain stitch is the foundation of almost every crochet project and creates the base that all other stitches are built on. In the next video, the slipknot will be repeated in a slower demonstration before moving into the chain stitch, so if you didn’t fully catch it the first time, you’ll have another chance to follow along before continuing.Â
👉 Watch the next video to learn how to make your chain stitches.

After learning the chain stitch, the next step is single crochet. This helps you start building fabric and understanding tension and structure.
Also, for the single crochet demonstration, you will see two different methods shown in the video. Both ways are correct and are simply different techniques for completing the same stitch.

Great Job learning the double crochet. Now let's build your skills with the Slip Stitch.
