The Chain Stitch

The most basic stitch is the chain stitch. This gives one a base stitch to start from and is good for borders.

We start with a knot on the hook whether it's from the last stitch or from a slip knot.

Put the wool around the hook.



Pull the wool through the knot.



This is considered your first stitch when counting in a pattern. Don't count your slip knot as the first. Create a chain as long or short as you want.
