 The Technical Stuff

Chain Stitch: Yarn over pull through one loop.

Slip Stitch: Insert hook into stitch. Yarn over and pull through both the stitch and
loop on the hook.

Single Crochet: Insert hook into stitch. Yarn over pull through two loops.

Increase: Work 2 stitches in the designate stitch.

Invisible Single Crochet Decrease: Insert hook into front loop of first stitch. Insert
hook into front loop of next stitch. Yarn over, draw through first 2 loops on
hook. Yarn over, draw through both loops on hook.

“Invisible” Yarn Colour Change: At the start of a round which will be in a new
color, pull up a loop as if to make a single crochet in the old color, but don't pull
through the second loop to complete the stitch-- you should have two loops on
your hook. Complete the single crochet by pulling through a loop of the *new*
color. You have just made a single crochet which is half the old color and half
the new color. Make 1 slip stitch in the new color. Continue the round as usual.
