Top Tips
Stitch Markers – Stitch markers are really handy to use. At the end of every round, place a piece of yarn to indicate the start of a new round. Crochet as normal. Remember to move the marker up after every round.
Count your stitches – It’s always good to count your stitches, best is to count back from your hook to your stitch marker.
Keep your tension – keep the same tension on the yarn for the project.
