Chain stitches are an integral part of crocheting. Except for the simple assembly, the first step in knitting is usually the creation of a series of chain stitches. They are one of a few basic stitches that every beginner should know.
Most crochet projects begin with chain stitches which form the foundation on which you build the rest of the project.

In addition to the chain of foundations, crochet projects often include chain stitches scattered throughout the rest of the pattern. Chain stitches combined with other stitches to create a design and construction.
Saving the correct tension for the chain stitches may require some practice, but it is a simple stitch to learn and start crocheting.
First, create a slip knot. Hold the unit on the hook, take his left hand. The yarn running from the coil should slide on the index finger. Use other fingers and thumb to hold a working circuit and maintain a correct thread tension at crocheting.
To keep the hook, take it in your right hand. Hold the hook head must be upwards. Every chain stitch that you knit, rotate the hook about a quarter turn counter-clockwise. You can flip it over if necessary, but most importantly, make every movement as accurate as possible and smooth.
As long as your hook is still in the slide assembly, wrap the working yarn over the hook. Sometimes it is necessary to hold the slide assembly in place the right index finger. Turn the hook around a quarter turn counter-clockwise until you are wrapped yarn to catch her.
Once you are hooked yarn, pull it through the slip knot. When you stretch the yarn, you will probably be easier to complete stitch, if you return to the starting position the hook - up.
This is the first complete chain stitch.
To make another chain stitch, connect the other loop and pull it. Repeat this as many times as necessary. When crocheting, use the thumb and index finger to guide the newly formed chain stitches down.
During operation, you will find the rhythm of the hook rotation, when you hook the yarn, and then turn it back when you're stretching. This rhythm makes the process easier and faster.
