Finishing Row 1: Rib Stitch Crochet

Video Transcript

"OK. We've been working with our double crochets along our bottom chain. You'll see on the bottom that we just got these little single little loops. Remember that you can utilize these to find the top of your chain if it's easier for you. So, we're just getting to the end. Remember wrap the yarn around first. You can go through this bottom and just poke your needle through to where you've got that one piece on the bottom and it's your chain on top and pull your yarn through. We've got our three. Pull it through the first two and pull it through the second two. We've still got two more so we're going to do the same thing right here. Just poke it underneath the bottom, pull it up. We've got three; there’s two and there's two. Now, when it comes to this last chain, which is actually the first chain that we made when we started making our base chain, it can get a little bit difficult because it's not a complete free flowing chain because it has our knot right here from where we started our loop. So, you might have to muscle your needle in there, but just don't be afraid and really look at it on the bottom, because it's more to it just because like you don't want to stick your needle under here that's going to undo your loop. You really want to make sure you stick it right there underneath here and really get it underneath your chain and not the initial loop that we started. You see, it kind of takes a little bit more, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to poke it through. There we go, just muscle that down. You see, now I've got my loop on top and I've still got my knot from my first loop when I started. Just make sure you really look out for this when you're starting to get to; when you get to the end of your first row. But, we're just going to do the same thing. Just pull it through and then for the first two and do the second two. Now we've got our first completed row of double crochets and on this next row, you'll start to see the pattern show up."
