"Hi! I'm Robin with trees-mom.com. We're making a video today for Expert Village. We're crocheting wire to make a Gothic bracelet. We're going to start with our chain stitch. We've made our slip stitch and we have it on our crochet hook. Now, we put the wire underneath our pinky and across the back our hand. We're holding on to the tail with our thumb and our pointer finger. The crochet hook, the hook part, is facing you. You're just going to grab some wire and pull it through the loop, and then just do it again. Pull it through the loop. Grab some wire and pull it through until you have made your chain as long as you need to make it. You've taken a measurement before, or you can just wrap it around your wrist and see how long that you need to make it. One thing about this wire is it's just a little bit harder to work with than the regular wire, but it makes it a really neat Gothic bracelet. This is what your chain stitch is going to look like."
