So, just for review, crochet stitch is work from right to left and you're going into the stitch in front of you. Reverse single crochet, you're going backwards into the stitch you just made. So, you go into the stitch, wrap the yarn, bring it through. You got two loops in the hook. You have to twist your hook around and then slip the yarn through those two loops. So, you go through the next stitch to your right. Bring a loop through. Twist the hook over under and around and draw the yard through. Go again to the right.
