━ ━ ━ ♡ abt ⠀wlcm to my how to crochet series- or, at least, my hundredth attempt of it! ⠀in this project i will be showing the easiest way to make a slipknot, which is the first step in learning to crochet- and yes, even for knitting. ⠀this IS a repost of what I shared on @crxchetinq-!! ━ ━ ━ ♡ "pattern" aka the steps ⠀now, you can't really call this part a pattern, as it's only the first step and has nothing to do with the actual crocheting part of it- it's really only a knot! ⠀‣ step 1: pull some yarn out of the ball, skein, or cake of yarn ⠀‣ step 2: cross the one end over the other to form a loop (the tail end coming towards you) ⠀‣ step 3: pull the end of the crossed over yarn under the loop, going away from you ⠀‣ step 4: grab your hook (or use your fingers) to halfway pull up the tail end of the yarn through the loop ⠀‣ step 5: pull your current loop up to slightly tighten it, pull the tail end to tighten to your hook to your liking. ━ ━ ━ ♡ resources ⠀there are honestly so many resources for crochet nowadays- but here is a video and a website (both are trusted creators) that clearly explains how to make a slipknot. ⠀‣ bella coco crochet - make a slipknot, three ways https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/youtube/1dWIsyJdiF4 ⠀‣ yarnspirations - how to make a slipknot for crochet https://www.yarnspirations.com/how-to-make-a-slip-knot-for-crochet.html ━ ━ ━ ♡ credits ⠀tysm to everyone who supported my crochet-content-making throughout my scratch journey, I will be reposting and improving most of those projects! ━ ━ ━ ♡ tags #tutorial #crochet #yarn #slipknot
