crochet chain stitch for every round

Each round requires a preparatory crochet chain stitch to elevate our yarn for the next row evenly.

Consider it a stepping stone that raises the yarn. This is the reason a chain stitch is used—to ensure a smooth and structured result.

the first and last marker for snake crochet pattern

Although I have some practice crocheting, I tend to forget a lot of stitches.

For this article’s purposes, marking button refers to the yellow button which I recommend beginner crocheters to use after they complete their first stitch.

Make sure you activate the blue marking button as illustrated after doing your final stitch.

v shape is stitch

Just like every other round on a crochet piece, this particular one also has classification of stitches. As for the round in question, hand crochets ought to be to the precise number.

Each single crochet stitch is denoted by a letter and a v symbol hence the name “stitch”.

6 single crochet (sc) into the magic ring.

Magic ring (mc): Form the magic ring with the thumb and index finger of your left hand by pulling the yarn end to the left and holding the yarn with the right hand. This will assist in forming the center or the beginning of the circle’s center which can be compared to an O gap.

For slip stitch (sl), insert the hook into the first yellow V shape stitch. Yarn overs and collectively pull through the two outer loops sitting on the hook. As a result, we obtain a single loop which we define as a slip stitch.

Snake crochet is effortless charm, radiating at the intersection of enchanting and a bit sassy. 🐍✨ The snakes come to life with colors, stripes, eyes and tongues which gives us the chance to make a tiny, squishy character full of personality. Creativity knows no bounds, whether they flaunt their coiled curls, long silly stretches, or dapper accents of a bow tie and hat. We cherish how every single one expresses its own mood and personality.

Beginners can find joy, peace and relaxation as they develop their skills with snake patterns. They begin as a tube which utilizes the skills of increasing, decreasing, and shaping without a huge demand of pressure. Bonus points for no arms or legs, which results in less sewing and more snug time.

Watching and rolling up a crochet snake gives immense satisfaction as they curl into cute little spirals. Each one acts like a pocket-sized pet, with bundles of love and yarn. While crocheting, snakes might just be the most adorable and the fluffiest reptiles known!
